We 'philes are often gearheads in more ways than one; our enthusiasm often includes things with wheels and/or engines. Cars came up in the "modding" thread here so...

Post your ride here! Four wheels, two wheels, eighteen wheels (or no wheels!); land, sea, or air; motor or human powered. Stock or modded. Pictures please!

I'll start off...Subaru '02 WRX wagon, lightly modded: Progress springs, Whiteline rear strut bar, removed intake silencer, Spec kevlar clutch (not much more than replacement OEM!) Kartboy shifter and Momo knob. Kumho MXes for summer and Yoko snows for winter (still on stock wheels, tho :( ).

Autocross pic is with stock springs. It leans a lot less now.

That is NOT a bike rack. It's a rooftop aero kit! ;)

Kick ***, Rip!

I've got a 2001 Imprezza OSW titanium two-tone - the last one before the WRX. (Literally, it was one of the very last ones in the region in late 2000 before they intro'd the WRX in 2001-1/2. My fabulous dealer nabbed it for me as-is and installed all my desires as they became available with no extra charge for labor.)

Front strut brace, short throw shift kit, plus just about every standard option available - fogs, HVAC filter, best available audio (which isn't really good enough), alloy wheels w/ locks, cargo net/mat/shade, power everything, and most importantly, the bike rack to carry my other ride - a 2000 Marin Rift Zone full-suspension.

I'll edit this post with pix as soon as I can.

I drive a silver 1999 Lexus GS400 with 75k mi on the clock. After 5 1/2 years, it is still tight and rattle-free. Living in the northeast, I have two sets of wheels and tires, 235-45 x 17 for summer, and Dunlop MZ-03s on 16" wheels for winter. With 300 hp on hand, I have worn out many sets of tires. I think I am on my third set of summer tires and my second set of winter tires. Although not modded, it does have a not-factory-recommended trailer hitch, so I can tow my motorcycle trailer on which lightly rests my 2000 Honda CBR 929. It is fast. It is capable of 166 mph, but I can only personally vouch for 157 mph. Every 3,000 miles, it needs a new rear tire.

I also have a van for those times when you need to lug audio equipment around, and a bed in the back for the times when you want to enjoy the company of slutty young ladies that like to ride on the back of the bike.

I drive a black 2004 Prius with gray interior. It averages about 59 mpg in city and 50 highway. It's a pretty sweet little ride. :cool:
Since we don't have a (working) digital camera, I just yanked this pic off of the Toyota website.

Good for you! I like to see folks interested in using less oil, for obvious reasons. Like your car, my bike gets over 50mpg on the freeway. And we both get to use the HOV lanes even while riding by our onesies! You can't beat that if you live somewhere that has lots of traffic.

Hey, djoxygen, I'm still waiting for the pix of your silver Subie!

I have a two-wheeled self-propelled vehicle too. Nothing fancy, a Trek Navigator 7200 "hybrid" bike to get the lard out of my butt. I ride with a club a couple of times a week until it gets too cold. Riding tonight in fact.

Cars are my first love!!!

I currently have:

'02 BMW M5 Silver/Black with an Autosolutions Short Shift Kit, Adjustable Clutch Stop, Stealthone remote display for the Valentine and some other cosmetics stuff like illegal tint and clear bra.

'99 Chevy Silverado Ext-Cab LT Z71 white/charcoal with all badges and stickers removed, illegal tint, Ranchhand Brush Guard, Westers PCM, PowerVault cat-back exhaust, Praise Dyno Stage II brakes with custom stainless steel lines, Rancho RS9000X shocks, 17" Avalanche takeoffs w/ Bridgestone AT Revos, Magnecor 8.5mm wires, Remote Start w/ Ungo alarm, Nokia Car kit, Kenwood Excelon 969 HU w/ Sirius, Phoenix Gold 475ti amp, DynAudio System 240 mids/highs, Phoenix Gold X-max 10" sub and a bunch of other small stuff.

'76 Corvette Brown/Tan, all original, not currently running. This is a car my father purchased new and I now have stored until I have space and time to work on it.

About to buy an '01-02 SL500 sport. I was looking for a BMW Z8 and decided to get the SL while I wait for the prices to drop a little more on the 02 Z8s OR I might get a Porsche 997S Cab when they come out instead of the Z8 (prices for a used Z8 and a new 911 Cab will be comparible).
 
Haha - you better not let your wife see a picture of herself under a thread titled "Post your ride!"

Gene = dead meat.... :D
