Hey everyone!
The car community on Lemmy isn’t the most active and I thought it would be nice to list the cars of its members.
Here is my list:
Present: Seat Leon Cupra 300 St 4 drive
Past: Audi S4 B6 Avant manual, Seat Ibiza Cupra
I was really happy with the 4.2 liters V8 in my S4, but the Cupra gives me more performance, more practicality and is cheaper to run. Would have loved a manual version if you could get it with fake AWD.
I plan on keeping the Leon Cupra for another 10 years before switching to an EV Estate if they appear one day.
What’s your list?
I like flat engines …

Would love to see a picture of your talon if you have one to share!
My first car was a 2004 Outback. Good riddance, it was a mechanical clusterfuck.
Currently I still have:
- 1991 Honda Accord, my solid daily
- 1977 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, the summer weekend boat (yea I’m a bit block cadillac guy lol). 425 cubic inches of Fuck OPEC.
On the back burner are a couple others.
- 1999 Subaru Forester, 5spd manual. Originally my high school daily. I lifted this one 2" and drove it in the gambler 500 a few times, it’s transmission sounds like a blender and is blowing up so I parked it until I get a chance to swap a new 5spd in - which is hard because they’re hard to find these days.
- 2000 VW Golf TDI, 5spd manual. Got it for free, snapped timing belt at 300k. This was going to become a highway daily but life got in the way and I never had the time or mental energy to really dig into it.
Currently only have my first car which is a 2017 civic, although my mom did let me drive her Ford fusion for several years before I got it
My first car was a Golf 3 Cabrio then a BMW 316ti E46 Compact and lastly a leased modern Audi A3.
After I gave my last car back I haven’t bothered with one and don’t have one since 2022.

The Subaru is my current daily driver, but the past couple weeks have been so stupid cold that I’m starting to think there’s ice in my tank, or the fuel pump is going out, or one of the old fuel hoses has cracked. AT hoses got all fucky last winter so they got swapped. Frickin cold hoses man.

Swapping from a 17 Focus RS to a 97 Miata is interesting. Normally that swap goes the other direction. What was the attraction to change?
Mostly because the RS was just too heavy and too powerful to have fun on the roads I’m driving, and the computers mean you barely have any feel anyway. The RS was purchased when I lived in Kansas City, but now I’m back up in the mountains of Southern California. Plus it was impossible to work on and parts were difficult to source. Plus as I list, this one’s not my first and I knew I loved Miatas. So I sold the Ford and bought this 97 NA with 90k miles on it, one owner, and had more than enough money left over to dump $10k into a full refresh and mods. It was fun for a bit to have power, but there’s nothing like driving a slow car fast.
The NA gets far more smiles per gallon than the RS, and anything that breaks I can fix in my own garage on the cheap. I fully intend to own this car until I die.
Also, pop up headlights.
My first car was a 2009 Nissan Sentra, my current is a 2017 Fiat Spider Abarth. Loved both cars for different reasons. I hope to upgrade to a used manual 2023+ Supra one day, but that’s just my current dream as it’s not really financially wise.
I’ve also got a 2013 Suzuki gladius, I have a knack for picking good vehicles with poor customer reception
I currently drive a 2006 rav4, 2002 sequoia, and a 2023 hyundai kona.
All at the same time?
Great question!
I currently drive a 2014 Corvette with a few track mods.

What kinda bike tho
Used 10 speed with no brakes. Almost killed me once. 0-10 would not recommend.
No make or model? Just some steel tubing taped together?
Lol pretty much. It barely had paint on it and I’m not entirely sure my Dad didn’t take it off of someone’s porch.
Nice
