I will probably be the only one here who drives an import as my daily driver, but I'm interested in to what you people drive as your daily car. Post them up and feel free to talk about them!

I drive a 1997 Volkswagen Jetta GLS. It has a 2.0L 4 cylinder with a 5-speed manual transmission. It's fun to drive, though it is not very fast at all. :sad9: Despite that, it's pretty fuel efficient! I get around 21-23 mpg city and 34+ on the highway :D. I blacked out the lights and plasti-dipped the rims to give it the full blackout look- it has tinted windows, but the previous owner put those on. Only problems I have had with it have been electrical, which have been annoying :banghead:. I think I have fixed the electrical ghost out of my car hopefully- and let me tell you guys, these cars are not very cheap to fix with some parts! Anyway here's my daily! I will probably get some s**t for my foreign piece of junk, but that's okay!

The two pictures of my car were at my friends house after we blacked out my lights.

2016 GMC 3500 denali Duely DuraMax Diesel. Really.
 
4 vehicles fit that list in my life,
the family truck is a brand X acadia


my daily driver is a 71 duster



my winterbeater is a 2008 charger



and last but not least is my 96 Kawasaki KDX 200 (plated 2 stroke endure)




as far as the kraut burner, I have owned 2 different VWs, both passats
one a 2.0T with a 6 speed manual and the other a 1.8T with a 5 speed manual
the 1.8T had been reprogrammed so that instead of the stock 5 PSI it would spike at 18 and hold 17 PSI all day long

right about 3200 RPM it felt like you got rearended by a semi
 
2009 Toyota Highlander, 3.5 V6, 5 speed auto, AWD. First import vehicle I ever owned, got it because it has lots of room for my camping gear when I head for the woods during the summer holidays and I really didn't want a minivan. I get about 17-18 in town and on 4 trips averaged 26 on the highway. Also had a decent winter test, I did not shovel my driveway other than a path to the Toyota this winter, AWD seems to work, the over 2 foot+ plowed snow pile at the end of the driveway may have slowed it down but it never got stuck.
 
That's my 97 BMW M3. It has over 200,000 miles and runs perfectly. It's taken some pretty serious beatings over the years. Runs 14.0s at the drag strip with only an intake and headers. But handles and stops REALLY well with tons of suspension and brake upgrades. Another plus is that it also has a slanted inline 6 like my dart!

Just like it says it my signature, my '74 Duster and '72 Challenger are my daily drivers. The Duster has been getting a lot more use lately, but I still run the Challenger around at least once a week. The Duster is the latest model car I own. ;)

08 Silverado - not much to say - except, I like the truck more than I thought I would. Bought it because the deal was right and I needed an xtra-cab 4x4..

Mines split between my 2002 Toyota crapolla and my 01 Ram 1500. It'll be split between the crapolla and my 02 Cummins soon as I get the cummins built, unless the crapolla takes a dump (no pun intended) before the cummins is done then we'll have toget another beater to run back and forth to the farm
