Chi-Town Dubbers Thread...

So my car is paid off and Adam's got no job. So he is leasing his CC and well, I'm going to be taking over that payment. So I'm getting a new car. What should I get?

Aren't Fiats crazy cheap cuz no one wants to buy them? Or are they so ghey, that's the reason no one wants to buy them?

I know you aren't cool enough to rock a wagon, so I'm just tossing out idears.

What are you talking about? Jenny from the block rocks one.

I like the 500 but honestly I would rather get a golf for my money. If I am going with a car that is that small on the inside I would get a mini.

[Assle]

The 500 has a bad rep because of uncomfortable too-flat seats, basically useless back seats, lazy steering, and worse-than-expected fuel consumption.

[JimmyD]

Don't you just love time/space travel.

yes.

[JimmyD]

N3rdy Pinoys = Pin3rds. And yes, it can be a funny sub word for male genitalia too.

[spdfrek]

Didn't Star Trek have killer robots too?

New, as in 0 miles, brand new, or just a new-to-you car?

If NEW-new.... Mini

If new-to-YOU... Mike's GMC

Probably. I'm a casual Star Trek fan... not quite a Trekkie, so I'm not sure.

However... the Pin3rd in me still wants this pizza wheel...

me too

Heck yeah, they were called The Borg!

One of the main characters from The Borg was 7 of 9.



She reinforced puberty for me!

I was allowed to watch TV AFTER I did my homework and tennis practice...so StarTrek The Next Generation was the TV that was on!

I'm a slightly above-average STNG fan and some of Startrek Voyager (see 7 of 9 )

I was gonna get a mini when I got my GTI, glad I got my GTI. And yes, new as in 0 miles. As I would love Mike's GMC, I need a realiable daily.

Ouch I want a wagon, but what kind of wagon?


The car has to be big dog friendly and well, I'm getting old quick, this will be a "family" car at some point. Time to plan ahead.

Uhhh, a JettaVI TDI.

Adam said no wagon's.

Ain't u the suga mama now??? You call the ball, CP!

Whatabout a Tiguan?

[Assle]

Mazdaspeed3. The rear area is big for how small the car is. It's one of the only compact car interiors I've ever felt is roomy and I'm a fan of big cars. IIRC, the MSRP is right at $24k and they're quick little cars.

I've been thinking about that... but it seems only the base model comes with a manual transmission. I want some fancy stuff, but with the manual. I got some time to shop around though. Might explore non-VW options.

I thought there was soemthing.

OH SNAP! I was wondering where that ticking noise was coming from.

Booooooooooooooo Wagons are cool.

They are nice cars.

Hyundai Veloster

Back seat is tight.

[Assle]

Hyundai Veloster

Goofy car is goofy. 2 doors on one side, 1 door on the other

Also, if you do get the Veloster, make sure it is a turbo model as the non-turbo are really slow.

[Dr. Hank McCoy]

I only knowz what I gets to see on televisionular.

[spdfrek]

The mazda is a better car.

THIS ^^^^ Jenni & I test drove a Tiguan and we loved it. I wasn't really a fan until we drove one.

Guess I'll just have to bring my car to Tommy to fix something and while I'm waiting test drive one.

When did u start putting your binoculars away????

[Sump]

Guy I sit next to just bought an Outback for his wife and new baby. Nice car.

Another guy at work just got the new Impreza wagon, interiors are much better than they were a few years ago.

They also ditched that clunky 4spd auto for a CVT that isn't too bad.

When I'm not in school zones or Lombard or close to a school in Lombard

I'm really diggin' the new Impreza Wagon. If I end up getting transferred out to Arlington Heights (I really hope that doesn't happen), I might end up leasing one of them.
