For Jpop / anison fans, yes, that is Eir Aoi's Ignite (Sword Art Online II's OP) :

Pretty sporty for a Lincoln its like the olds commercials, "that's an oldsmobile?" I like the duel exhaust.
 
Jaguar XF. Lease up in a few months and not sure what I'll get in that mid-size sedan range. In a perfect world, I'd get a pickup truck for hauling kayaks, fishing gear, trees, etc. Unfortunately, as a lawyer, I need the nice'ish car to put on the show for clients. Doesn't really make sense to me, but many prospective business clients want to see nice car/office space, not realizing of course that someone has to pay for those.

Gen1 or Gen2 XF and how do you like it?
Looking at a supercharged Gen1 XF as a possible replacement for the LS (uses the same DEW-98 platform).
Gen2 moved away from that though.

Replaced the factory exhaust tips. They were a little on the small side and did not fill in the bumper cutouts as nicely.
 
DD is an '06 impreza MT
OD is a 2013 FRS MT

both technically subarus but in all honesty the impreza is by far the best car i've owned.

2012 Dodge Challenger SXT+

It's served me well for the last 5 years, but we're trying to start a family in 2018. Time to go back to a truck sometime within the next year .
 
'13 Ford Focus ST. Still love it, it's been a great and fun car. I've been driving for a third of a century and it's only the second new car I've ever bought (for myself).

I'm a 6 figure baller but fairly conservative when it comes to cars. My last car was a '98 Accord that I took from 170K miles to 260K miles; before that was an '00 Maxima that I took from 30K to 220K miles. The Focus ST had everything I wanted in a new car and the price was right so I bought it.
 
2014 Subaru Impreza hatch and 2005 BMW M3

Too bad Alky turned the M3 into a joke. It's really just a 12 year old fun, understated and reasonably priced car. Certainly not "baller" category.
 
I drive probably the oldest car here. Black 2000 Acura 3.2 TL. Creeping up on 170,000 miles. Have had it for 5 years or so. Only a couple minor issues plus routine maintenance. It still looks contemporary enough to be ok. I see a lot of these cars on the road, they just keep on ticking.
