i hated to do it but i had to send the honda to heaven. after my troubles I found out they phucked up my car and were just waiting for me to call for the repairs. in any case, i found this one to be cute. top motor mount was shot to hell when i got it but it drives like a new car now, changed the temp sensor, tuned it up and definitely changed the oil, altho the previous owner took very good care of it, and kept all the papers to prove it. had i think 142k on the clock. i've heard stories about saturns, but i've seen good saturns on the road when people take care of them.

it's small for a wagon but i like it :)

1955 Ford Couriers. My dad has my great uncle's original (black,photo lifted from identical rig) with I6. I have one i bought (red) with a 302 that kinda works. Both need a fair amount of work at the moment tho. Stored in a garage for a pair of cruisers in the future :)

I think that is a blower for when the engine catches on fire.
It only happened that one time...

The blower motor is to help circulate hot air from the heater boxes up to the vents in the cabin. It helps make the heat somewhere between "nonexistent" to "mediocre".]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-What-do-you-driveown-19782168 Fri, 11 Jan 2008 15:46:05 EDT Re: What do you drive/own? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-What-do-you-driveown-19781752 said by dolphins:

The 2004 CVT virtualizes a 6-speed in multritronic mode... I'm not complaining though. In sports mode it accelerates a LOT better than a car with it's power/weight ratio might be expected to :)

Yeah, I never used the Sport mode at first, thinking it was going to suck... but actually, it does work really well and use it from time to time.
My Vespa doesn't have that mode. ;) It goes up to a particular rev and stays there for as long as I have the throttle cracked open. It's cool, because it must be nailing the torque peak perfectly. The bike accelerates really well for a measly 200cc.

Well technically it is my wife's... my name is just on the loan. I love the CVT. My next car will definitely have one too. Accelerating without feeling any pauses to shift gears is great. They're also supposed to be fairly easy on the maintenance as well.
My previous Audi (2004 A4 1.8T) had the 5-speed manual.

My current Audi (2007 A4 2.0T) has the CVT... plus it's my first automatic car.

I must say, I really like it! I also like the sport mode that virtualizes a 7-speed gearbox.

Nothing extravagant; new suspension, lower it, pan-to-intake teardown and buildup, 5 lug conversion, aluminum driveshaft, King Cobra clutch, dent repair and paint.

Picked it up for $3k, high mileage but clean and maintained well.

Engine work will come first, suspension last.
