Currently I own a 2002 Mustang GT...such a fun car to drive, but i'm getting rid of it because it's given me alot of problems!! I just had to have the rear end rebuilt because the C clips broke and broke teeth off my gears and basically the only thing holding my wheels on were the calipers :( It's also had a couple other things wrong with it. It probably didn't help that i used to drag race it, which i will not be doing with my next car!!

My husband and I are going to get two new cars in the next 6 months. We are trading in the mustang for an '05 or '06 Nissan Pathfinder and then I'm going to get a 2006 Mini Cooper S!! What a fun little AutoX car :devil: :P

The other day after practice i got to drive an Audi s4!!!! it was one of the greatest experiences of my life (even though i stalled it gettin out of the parking spot :o ). That car was soooo friggen fast i didnt know wat to do w/ it. the one thing i disliked bout it was how steril it felt (steering and clutch had no feel in them). I love having rich coaches :P
wether you think you can or think you can't, either way you'll be right

Any idea what year it was? The S4 is truely what a sports sedan is supposed to be! They are almost more fun to drive in the snow than in the summer.

I'm planning on buying a lil mini cooper as my first vehicle
when I am finally done with school. (2 1/2 years from now!)
As of right now my primary ride is a 5 year old shiny red cannondale! :P (I live in the city)

AND... my other ride is a sweet GS500E! ;) (Yep, i am a girl) And, yes, its purple. That one lives at my 'country' home and comes out for breaks in school and summertime.

Here's a pic: It is JUST like this one except mines purple! :)
