Hey guys!
Personally, I love cars, especially German and Japanese ones, I'm not into Muscle cars (except of '67 Mustang an Ford Granada). My favourite car is the Nissan Skyline GTR R34. It unites the attributes elegance, beauty, power and control in one vehicle. Here's a pic of it, I modified it with Photoshop:

edit: Right click and show picture, otherwise the carbon hood looks strange.. ;)
So, what is your favourite car?
-
Mine is Porsche Caiman ;D!
Perhaps it lacks of control versus other vehicles but I still like it ;D.

Anything Mitsubishi. I just have a fondness for their cars since my father used to work for them.
When i was a kid, though, i always wanted a yellow Lamborghini and a red Porsche. Not sure why.
I always collected Hot Wheels cars as a kid. I still have them (Not sure how many. Several hundred, with many still in their packaging). My favorite is Sweet 16 II:
(http://images.wikia.com/hotwheels/images/3/30/Sweet16II_2009scary.JPG)
I have several variants of it.
I always preferred the more surreal and sci-fi looking cars over the real world cars. Except of course for the Mitsubishis. ;D
I stopped collecting them though when they released these stupid "Bling" editions, and other such nonesense. I'm not sure why, but those cars just put me off Hot Wheels as a whole. :(

Jaguar XJS... love classic cars but this is by far my favourite
(http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Elburro/Loomis/xjs.jpg)

I like old cars. Looks nicer :P
My absolute favorite is the AMC family car series however.

Like the Ambassador. This babies are awesome. Every since I was a little kid and sat in one of those ( My neighbor had one.) in the frontseat I was like. Wooah, I want one. They have 3 seats frontseats! :D

THe Wolkswagen Bettle is a beuty! Called a ¨bubbla¨ in Sweden :D Litteraly a bubble ^^ I read somewhere of the SS using these in frontline duties with camo painted on it. Found a picture of a model! :D

Haha, Panzervölkswagen! ;D It would be so funny to see 1 of those on the frontline, no? They probably used it to make the Allies laugh to death. :D
-
Panzervolkswagen, there's no Umlaut in Volk ;)
Edit: BTW I've got a practical course at Volkswagen in autumn.. :P

??? ??? ???
-
It's Völkerball. Völkerball is a ball game that you play at school, it contains the plural of Volk, "Völker". Volk however is the singular form.. ;)
-
I thought 'Volkswagen' was plural? 'The peoples car'? ???
-
Wow... nice nice... I think I got some draws with a Bettle in North Africa... I'll search here... later I post the picture
-
I thought 'Volkswagen' was plural? 'The peoples car'? ???
Volk, literally translated, means people in terms of a people of a whole contry. Völker means peoples. So it's the car of the German people, so Volkswagen. :)
-
Ah, i see. People as a whole, singular term. Thanks. So what if you want to refer to an individual person?
-
One single person is a "Person", several people together are "Leute" what means the same like people when you talk about several persons.
-
Alright, thanks.
Anyways, back to sexy cars:
(http://images.wikia.com/companyofheroes/en/images/5/55/SdKfz_234_Armoured_Car01.jpg)
Ain't she a beauty? ;D
-
Mrs SdKfz 234 isn't that of a beauty IMO. I prefer her
(http://www.blitzkrieg-mod.de/images/gallery/xalibur/units/WM/large/unit_axis_panzer_4_ausf_d.png)
or her

My Favorite Car has got to be the Mustang 65' Fastback in Black or Dark Blue
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZmK8iTAa9So/S617kotkGxI/AAAAAAAAAIw/hZGA7X8vhfA/s1600/ford_mustang_fastback_cammer_v8_1965_01.jpg)
(http://image.mustangandfords.com/f/26428147/mdmp_0911_04_+1965_mustang_2_by_2_fastback+rear_view.jpg)
Currently I own a Convertible version that's restored and missing a couple of things but after a nice coat of paint it'll be back on the road again :)
-
You're 15 and own a '65 Mustang convertible? :o
-
Well, he's a New Yorker, so he probably stole it. ;D

Ouch.
You're 15 and own a '65 Mustang convertible? :o
I purchased the car from my father when he bought the body and we've been working on it since. I never knew why he never liked Fiats though. Maybe because they're too small xD
-
Just kidding, mate. I love making fun of stereotypes. ;)

I guess it's a bug of the forum. It looks like my donor badge. :(

Dude... your donor badge is like that on purpose :P.
-
Really? Well if you don't want me to have a donor badge, then why not just remove it, instead of having it not display? ???
-

Oh, I thought you mean the double donor badge. You see it like that because you are using a different layout for the forum, you can change it on your account settings IIRC.
-
My turn
Land Rover Defender

Playing around with the 2 other options, i noticed the donor badges display in both of them, but your signature still doesn't display. ???

Smart Cars ;D

Well there are some nice Eastern Front pictures out there. Replace "Rizz" with "blackbishop", and you're all set. ;D

Man I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the old 1930's cars.
-
I love them too! :P
-
I love them too! :P
As my teacher said when we were watching a movie that took place in the 1930's, they don't make them like they used to. ;D

The Chieftain Tank
(http://www.tankdriving.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/chieftain-tank.jpg)
Who needs a fast car when this travels at 30Mph on the road with a L11A5 120 mm rifled gun, oh and two FN MAG's!
-
A person who dosent have time for a ticket ;)
-
The Fatboy Mobile Factory
(http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/riptide/liquidweekly/lw2_tlo_fatboy.jpg)
Who needs an ordinary old Land Factory to produce units, when you've got this beast?!
Capable of producing a large amount of varied land units rather quickly, as well as refueling aircraft, and protecting itself and nearby units in its Bubble Shield, not to mention driving underwater!
Also has long-range, high-powered cannons (just in case, you know, you don't feel like waiting to produce an army), and some light A-A defenses. When your enemy sees you deploy this baby, it's GG right there!
-
Badass! 8)
-
Do you play Supreme Commander, Maxi?
-
No, I just play COH, Cod6, GTA IV, HoI3, FH2, some of Need for Speed and Minecraft ;)
-
You play HoI3? We should play a game, I love HoI.
-
I would have to search for the disc first.
And fear me, I'm pretty much a noob in it. :P
-
Raise you a Cybrannosaurus, Pariah... :P
(http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Elburro/AEREA/cybran_desktop_1600x1200.jpg)
SC2 was ridiculous... still love them crazy ass Cybrans though...
-
Yep, Cybrans have always been my favorite. 8)
I bought SupCom 2 when it was first released, but unfortunately it requires Steam to activate, and my stupid 'net connection couldn't connect to Steam to activate it. Activating games was the only reason i got this 'net connection, too... >:( ::)
Although i hear SupCom 2 wasn't very good, so i'm not too concerned about it, but still...
Also: Monkeylord Spiderbot!

This "tank" was made by Mexican drug lords! :o They sadly neglected to add any protection to the tires, which is how it got taken out.
