| Ooh, I love the color of your cars. I see your old car sittin there in the drive...so now do you have two cars? Well, here's my car. Got it for graduating high school, it's a piece of crap, but hey...it works. NEVER buy a Volkswagen. This is a really old picture when I had David Bowie plates. Now I have wildlife conversationalist plates and a Cure sticker on there. Before this car, I had an old blue '91 Pontiac Grand Prix.  |

| ^^I've actually heard good things about Volkswagons... are you sure it's not just the Beetle that's a piece of crap?
As for me.... I'd never take a pic of my car. It's probably going to die within the next year anyway... But here's a pic I found online of what I drive... EW...

Yep... and here's mine.
They're putting art on the sides of some of them, at least.
On evenings/weekends I do take my husband's car, though. |

Yeah, it's not just my car. Every person I've known who's had a VW has hated it (especially Jettas) and usually they end up having to scrap it. Just recently, I needed the whole cooling system replaced, along with the timing belt, the headlights, the horn and the windshield wiper motor replaced/repaired. Also, the whole thing is made from cheap plastic, so I have big ol' cracks and all over the place on it. The last set of repairs cost me 1,300 bucks. I looked up problems with VWs in message boards, etc. and found pages upon pages of problems with them. Many I've had, many I can hope to not have. So, no, I really would not recommend a VW, no matter how cute they are.
Red--I love your buses! Some of ours here in DC are covered in paintings of foliage to get people to 'go green' by riding them. Too bad they don't have any stops near my house. |

| Ok, so my ride it wacked, but I love it!  My Friends call it the Vanabe:  And it's got personality. Even with the license plate blocked out you could still figure out who it is easily....  |

| ^^ You are a truly lucky Pontiac owner! My parents have two 2001 Grand Prix's (red and black 4 doors) and they have spent tens of thousands of dollars on repairs on them over the past 8 years. Maybe you ride with Lady Luck. |

Hey hey hey. My new ride runs very well thank you very much. I'm proud of it. It may not have the class of my old car or the flash of saying the name of the cd playing or cup holder lights, but it treats me well. |
