    I'm a diehard Mopar (Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep) fanatic myself; but for the rest, what do folks here drive?

    Edit - to add; if you don't know what yours is, ask me - I will very likely know. :wink:

    I drive a 1997 Holden Vectra. Holden is the Australian brand name fro GMC, so I selected that option.

    P.S. I think the poll options should be changed - European Imports and Asian Imports to just European and Asian - as there are a lot of EC'ers from Europe and Asia, so those cars wouldn't exactly be imports for them :slight_smile:

    Oh no.. I voted for "I don't drive", but what I meant that I do drive, I have a driver's license.. I just don't own a car. It's really expensive to own a car in Norway, registration fee, insurance, gas, repairs, and of course buying the car in itself. I'm a poor student and can't afford a car. I take the bus everywhere.

    I own a Dodge Ram and a BMW z3. I don't know what to check.

    I'm not really brand loyal when it comes to car. I like all cars. Hazza has a good point on the import thing. My BMW was built in Spartanburg, South Carolina.

    You have just earned yourself some serious points. Mopar FTW! ^_^

    My first car was a Chrysler, but my current one is a '97 Mazda MX-6. I didn't have much of a say when I got it. It was cheap, and I needed a quick replacement since my previous car got totaled. =/

    I don't think I've ever owned an American car...I had BMW's in high school and college, and been through a couple of Range Rovers after college...which is what I drive now.

    I've always wanted a Ranger Rover, but I concerned about their reliability.

    I really want a Land Rover Defender, but my god they are expensive. Last year I found a 93 that had caught on fire. They only wanted $13K for it. If I had some where to repair it, I think I would have bought it.

    I drive a lovely Pontiac Grand Am (which I believe is a GM). She just reached 100,000 miles. Yes, I've also named my car. :lol:

    I checked off Chevrolet/GMC as I plan to buy a Chevrolet Cavalier or Pontiac Sunfire to finish learning how to drive. We haven't had a single issue with our Cavalier Z24, and it is approaching 168,000 miles (270,000 kilometers and counting.)

    Once I get my license I plan to buy a Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird. I'm looking for something that I need to fix and put time into, as I like the learning experience, and want to save a neglected sports car.

    Yes, Pontiac was a division of General Motors until their closure in 2010.

    I drive a decade-old Volkswagen Jetta. His name is Otto das Auto. I'm not complaining, but it went through a 20-something and then my terror-of-a-driver brother, so it's a little trashed as far as certain mechanical issues go. My favorite problem is where if I hit a bump too hard, the passenger side window will fall down. It's lovely when you have to go 70 on a freeway and it's 20F outside.:dry:

    One of my first purchases when I get a job out of college will be an SUV that's capable of off-roading and the like.

    my first car was a 1994 silver Jeep Grand Cherokee. best car ever! but alas it died from extreme rust issues... so I bought a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and he's just as awesome as his decade older predecessor :slight_smile:

    1996 Ford Taurus. First and only car so far. I'll probably be looking for something new right after I get a job after college.

    One of my co-workers drives a Subaru Outback. He calls it the LSW (Lesbian station wagon)
