the car with the nice wheels in my friend Dave's - he's over seas in Iraq now, so since I'm taking care of it while he's gone - it qualifies as mine I think...

The one with the smashed driver's side fender is mine (I have a new fender, it needs paint yet though)...

Next up: Matt... and no, I don't want to see pics of the Saturn - I/we want pics of the '72 BMW 3.0 CS please...

EDIT: I assume, that my nominator wanted to see the Stealth R/T Twin Turbo. If you would rather I can post pics of the 2001 Pathfinder and the 1998 Dodge Neon...

i heard about Henk's car as well, first hand. Henk and his wife traveled over here to Canada back in July and we met, had lunch, etc. he had plenty to say about the underpowered rental car he had, and how his car back home was so much better.

I saw that coming but sorry guys, currently my car is 5000 km away from me, and I have no pictures available at least until the 10th of October. I could ask somebody to take some and put them on but you understand how dependent I am. I'll ask for a pic in the highest ride position, it then almost looks like an SUV and the ride has the same low quality :)

To keep the thread going I would like to see some of jcp123's cars. (at his discretion)

French engineering at it's most idiosyncratic :)

Great for sweeping to the edges of the screen, but the meet in the middle as they operate in a clapping motion ( with a small offset and overlap ). So you get great views except for a stripe of water that sits right up the middle of the screen !! Without Rain-X and excess speed it coudl prove quite dangerous :)

So for those who have impatiently been waiting, here it is, the UCP long distance transport provider, the Citroen Xantia Break 2.0 Hdi.
One pic is normal, the second is the highest ('SUV") position, third pic shows the engine, the green sphere is one of the fluid containers of the hydraulic suspension.

As Karmann is not going to show his Escort. I would like to see Crisis' car, powered by this gaz guzzling V8.
