I'm 15 but when im 16 i will drive my parents car and its a mazda 6

 

Try to not kill yourself. Imo, it's best to practice in a slower car that didn't cost too much. Sooner or later you will probably damage or at the very least scratch something.

 

I personally live in a european city with rather narrow streets compared to countries like the USA. I don't expect anyone to understand, but I really do prefer driving a smaller car that didn't cost a fortune. Even if you don't damage it yourself, there's a good chance that someone else will. In the past 6 or 7 years my current car and the one I had before it were hit four times by other drivers who didn't pay attention and I only got one of them to actually pay for the repair of the damage he had done.

 

My current car is a 2009 Toyota Aygo. Official top speed of 100mph, but actually goes a bit faster than that. 40+ miles/galon, as long as I'm not beating on it too much and annual road tax is only 20€. Took the rear seats out so that i can easily fit my bike (or the gf's dog) in the back. Love it.

I don't really play many games for gameplay anymore honestly. I play most games just for the graphics.

I drive a 2005 Subaru Impreza. Other than a Suzuki Swift, this is the only car I've ever driven so I can't really compare it to anything. I'm just happy it doesn't sway on the highway (the Swift did sometimes, it was scary). I don't have any photos, sorry.

1998 Ford Courier with a 2.4L Petrol engine

Currently rebuilding a R31 Skyline with the RB30e engine.

 

That is so cool, love the R31's.

 

We worked on an R32 sedan quite a while ago with a 1.8L CA18i engine, a little underpowered but still pretty good.

 

I think it was a GXi Type X or something like that

Well, I've owned a multitude of vehicles in my past, but since I don't have a garage where I live anymore, I'm going to buy a motorbike soon, the Yamaha R6

That is one BEAUTIFUL R6  :o

When I get my license, I'm hoping to get anything with 4 wheels and an engine. If it has nice a/c that'd be fine too.

Same. I could get my license but we only have 1 car so...yee... I want anything with 4 wheels and that can run off of air....

Life is pain. Anyone who says any different is either selling something or the government.

Basing something on a very good Japanese model is a good thing, bloody excellent engine with two small IHI turbochargers (I think at least).

 

I've seen those things in Mitsubishi form hitting 550bhp and still being reliable, got to love Japanese engineering.
