What makes you buy a car/vehicle?

[Tuffdisc]

As the title suggest, what is it that makes you buy a car? I don't mean as "I need to move around", we all do. I mean is it fuel economy, looks or something else?

 

[hart]

It's got to be Red, a convertible, it has be a manual and it has be be fast! And yeah it has to look good!

I won't have a white car.

They all look like stormtroopers.

I don't know much about cars colour is about as far as my technical knowledge goes!

 

[hart]

I don't know much about the technical either I just know what I like in looks and that I like speed (too much for my own good)

My car was bought by looks and performance all the way....the gas mileage is marginal at best (22 city 26 highway) 14 gallon tank....I have a sports gear I can put it in if I want to be "race" mode, but it is not super fast by any stretch....I want an upgrade!

LEXUS IS 250, 2007

What I can afford, what's around and I check the essentials, mainly the underneath.

How is that possible? I had a white car before, never looked like a storm trooper to me

Hehe, I never thought of that. I had a white car once and I hated it. It always looked dirty.

They all do. Perhaps it's something you have to tune into. I'm switched onto 'stormtrooper' now, I can't turn it off :ninja

Cost and appearance. It's gotta be cheap, fast and hot....just like it's owner.:24:

Aye, as I can see by your avatar

My vehicle has to be a truck. 4X4 is a prerequisite where I live. It has to be functional. The one in my avatar is a used one I picked up in early October. It's got a few more bells and whistles than I'm used to, but, I didn't buy it because of them. I do like the looks if it, though.

 

[MainerMikeBrown]

Since I live in cold, snowy, and icy Maine, any vehicle I purchase must be either front wheel drive or a 4X4.

I've never owned a back-wheel drive car. And I don't plan on changing that anytime soon either.

Not good for driving in snow these rear drive cars. My brother has one, and it was a total farce driving in the snow. Doing a three point turn is dangerous in one of them

Yes, but they're the best for doing donuts. :ninja

 

[Maulds]

With front wheel drive you do the donuts in reverse
