YACPT - Yet Another Car Pics Thread

[zCypher]

Post recent pics only. No older than maybe a month or three. List your car's year, make, model and trim. List any mods that you've put into it in the past of the vehicle and how much money it's cost you in either mods, repairs, or both. Also optional list your insurance premiums if you feel like it. Should be interesting to compare.

Mine:
1985 Chevy Camaro IROC-Z Z28. 5-speed, carbureted 305 (5.0L) V8, "cherry bomb" exhaust, 3.42 diff ("posi-traction".. ooooh). standard 16" i believe on there.. toyo tires. they do the trick. I've put approx CAD$2k into it in the past 3-4months and I bought the car for CAD$4750. Insurance costs me CAD$380/year. I got several tickets the first week of having the car and haven't been bugged since (I guess I learned). pic taken tuesday..

2003 Mitsubishi Lancer ES base model, 5-speed. 2.0L I4, 16-valve 120hp (woot). Dual air bags and cd player with nice 4 speakers come standard, comfortable seats, roomy interior... no mods obviously. No repairs either (obviously). About time for its first oil change right now. Great day to day car. Costs me CAD$1500/year on insurance. Cops don't even see me when I drive this car. oh yeah and i pay CAD$268/month for this which is at 0% for 48 months and CAD$0 down payment. woohoo! lease though . this pic taken about half an hour ago

mmmm, fat tires
285/60R16 on the front
295/65R16 at the back

Those were taken before I adjusted the tire pressure, they were at 43PSI so the dirt on the tires makes them look smaller (now at 34PSI on the front, 27PSI on the rear)

My Car

Car:
1997 Saturn SC2
79000 miles
Power locks, power windows, keyless entry, automatic transmission.

Performance:
124hp, 122lbs of torque (raw power baby)

Mods: (If you want to call it that)
Pioneer DEH-P4500MP

Cost:
$4700 @ 74,800 miles

Repairs:
Nut in transmission was loose, didn't have reverse, and shifted weird in 2nd gear, cost me $330 to get it repaired by a tech...
Belt Tensioner was going bad, I repaired it myself, pat cost me $60
Radiator Fan died, repaired it myself, cost me $20 to replace the motor in the fan

Insurance:
$575 every 3 months (I am only 17, insurance is killing me)

Future Plans:
Kumho ECSTA KH11
Pioneer TS-A1680R

My thoughts on the car:
Its not exactly a muscle car, but It works fine. Not a horsepower monster, but its light enough to be quicker than most stock 4 cylinders cars. Has all the options I'd want. I went autocrossing with it, tons of fun. Even beat some more expensive cars, and it was my first time out! Nicer than most cars 17 year olds own, had plenty of compliments from my friends (chicks and guys) so I'm content.

Hahah, knew that would draw some attention. Cavaliers, Civics, Corollas, Eclipses (non turboed), some 4 cylinder Accords, and the such. I'm not talking about S2000s or anything.

that's cool man, but holy fvck do you ever get raped on insurance. Is that american dollars? So you're basically paying $3k+ (in canadian currency) for a 1997 saturn? holy moley.. I pay CAD$1500/year for my freaking 2003 Lancer.. and I'm only barely 19 years old, and I don't even have my full license yet... and I'm insured as primary driver... and I've only had *A* car for a few months. :Q

Yep, I get raped on Insurance, it is $575 USD every 3 months, and to be honest, I have it kinda good. If you do an online quote, you'd see most insurance companies would charge someone like me $1400 USD every 6 months. I can't wait till I hit 20 or something, drop this whole insurance rapage thing.
