What does a car say about its driver?

[sayba2th]

"It's practical AND we can go for skiing vacations in Vermont"

Fire away....

I want the smallest, most underpowered minivan in existence, AND do it in the opposite of style.

[Roger the Horse]

A tall man who is balding but still noticeably has curly hair.

[Roger the Horse]

They're a pimp.

A factory baja racer is going to cost more than a car...

2001 Ford Focus Wagon SE (my car).

Sensible and practical to a fault. A bit boring, you just want something cheap to get you and whatever/whoever else you need to where you're going, and to do it for years without any real concerns regarding reliability.

Donkervoort D8 GTO

If I had a spare $140,000 lying around, I'd buy this in a heartbeat. It's basically a Lotus/Caterham 7 from the mind of an utter madman. I love it.

 

[Slash]

The name alone just made me laugh incredibly hard haha.

Gumpert Apollo, anyone? Besides, they're Dutch, and the Dutch aren't exactly known for coming up with cool/sexy names for things.
It's still effectively a gussied up Caterham powered by an Audi turbo'd straight-5 that puts out 340hp. At less than 700 kilos, that's about 485hp/ton.

Beat that for a cool name.

Yup, your description of the focus sounds about right.

As for the D8, if it were up to me for names; I would call it the Silver Arrow.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

I don't think anyone posted up a new car?

Dodge Caliber SRT-4

 

[Roger the Horse]

They spend a lot of time standing by the side of the road, waiting for a tow.

Porsche Macan: MY CAR WAS NOT MADE IN CHINA!!

Mercedes CLK: "I am a tall man with hair that suspiciously looks like pubes."

Porsche 991 Turbo S Cabriolet

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

"I bought myself a $200,000 car that has 550hp for driving down the road at 45mph on nice sunny days with my young blonde wife who totally isn't with me just for my money."
