As if reefing wasn’t an expensive enough hobby! Here’s mine, a MK. 7.5 GTI. Does anyone else drive something interesting?

I’m a hatch back fan myself. Got a focus St, with all the bolt ons. Also have a 1962 Ford ranchero. That has a straight 6, 3 on the tree. Its fun classic and a useful pick up when I need to haul stuff.
 
I use to build cars before I got married and had a kid. I had a 02 Ford lightning with a built motor that ran 11.6 at the track. 12 years ago that was fast for a street car not anymore you can buy a brand new cars that go that fast now. After that I built a 91 bronco 2 on one ton rears, stretched the frame, dual transfer cases on 44 inch tire that was a fun truck. I sold that and bought a 65 ford f100 2wd that I put a 5.0 in it lowered it 5 inches replaced a bunch of metal on it but it's been sitting for couple years haven't had much time after having my daughter and getting addicted to saltwater. Found a video of the bronco before it was finished. tanks.

Hatchback man myself, I use to have a built up 97' Honda Civic Hatch and a slightly modded 02' Lexus IS300 - Unfortunately don't really have time to tinker on cars anymore. I just recently grabbed a Toyota Corolla Hatch - not much vroom but gets the job done.

Nice VW! I'm largely into cars myself. As my name shows, here is my 94 Supra TT 6 speed. Here are photos of my baby. They are a few years old. Haven't taken new ones in a while.

Awesome, I’m a big Supra fan myself. Love the black.

I really like the focus, I nearly got one before going with the GTI instead. FBO is pretty serious stuff too.

[QUOTE I also considered the GTI. The focus is good enough thought. It’s just right for the around town driving. Im averaging about 4,000 miles a year. It really doesn’t get to stretch its legs out much.

My 2000 Wrangler, 'Solo's Bane', custom driveway paint job, straight 6, a 'downgraded' ax-15 transmission we had to jam in there, and 4:10 rear axle. Starting to use this a bit more so going to swap out axle for something more reasonable. The 4:10 can pull a house up a mountain, but I can be in 5th with pedal on the floor and I'm lucky to hit 65mph.

And just traded in that Odyssey for an Acura TLX.
