    All my photos of my car are on my phone so excuse the stock image ;)

    I have a 2009 Kia Spectra EX. It's not really anything fancy but hey, it has air conditioning and it drives.

    The vehicle I get to drive around whenever I want is a 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL that my father found in the front of a junk yard place for $1,500 and with just over 50,000 original miles back in 2013.
    1992-oldsmobile-cutlass-supreme-7.jpg This photo isn't mine. But it shows the exact color my car is. Though it has the older style interior in it, unlike in the photo.
    It's a pretty solid car for me overall. However my only complaint about it is how annoying it is to get the battery out. I'd have to remove both a structure strut and the window washer fluid tank just to get the battery out, and I ended up breaking the window washer tank off (whoops.) so my car pretty much has no window washer tank because we didn't bother putting it back on.

    As for my parent's cars, it's mostly american stuff from the 90's. 1 '95 Chevy Beretta(since 2012) and a '93 Ford Explorer(a family suv we had since 1997!). However my father does own a 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass as a weekend driver and had it since the 90's.

    I just got into BeamNG. Going to start playing around with some CAD stuff and hoping to start building some vehicles soon. Right now, I'm just downloading any vehicle that looks cool and doesn't peg my GPU too much. Here's a few pictures of my ride. It's a 1995 Ford Bronco. XLT trim, 302 c.i.d 5.0L engine, auto transmission. It's pretty much bone stock aside from the tires which are 33x12.50R15 on offset 15x10 steel wheels. Also, the other most noticeable mod is the addition of the roof top light bar topped with five 100 watt KC HiLites 69 Series Long Range lights. It's a little rusty, but it gets me from point A to B and is a blast to drive everywhere between and beyond and I hope that one day I can recreate it for BeamNG.

    Update on me

    Passed my driving test 13th July 2015

    Cars I drive
    2009 Jaguar X-Type Estate 2.2L Diesel

    that is all :)

    Although I have driven

    Vauxhall Corsa (driving instructors reserve car)
    Toyota Yaris (driving instructor main car)
    Saab 95 Saloon (Car I started to learn to drive in)
    Saab 95 Hot Aero Estate (I drove the car for 2 days and I realise just how powerful it was)
    Toyota Land Cruiser (bit of off roading)
    Land Rover Defender Long wheel base (some more off roading)
    Land Rover Defender Short wheel base (1 hour off road driving like a pro hehe)
    and my dads Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel (a total of 16 feet and I understand just how powerful the brakes are on it! and 16 feet is the length of the car!)

    so you can say in a total of just about 2 years of getting my licence I am pretty experienced :)

    Hopefully I can get my own Jaguar XF one day...who knows...

    I drive a 1988 Dodge Power-Ram 50. The "sport cab" trucks are quite rare, as is the 4x4, the limited slip rear end, the bucket seats, the AC, and the dash clock of all things. Mine is also the only one I've ever seen that had chrome trim.

    I've since replaced the carbed I4 and Auto trans combo with a 3.0L MPI V6, and a 5 speed w/transfer case out of a Dodge Raider. The AC got deleted and the stock dash got swapped out for a Dodge Raider dash as well.

    I'm planning on swapping out the stock ECU for a megasquirt III, putting on a set of VR4 twin turbos that I have, and at some point in the future I'm going to harvest an Eaton M112 supercharger off of a junked 2003 Mustang Terminator and make a custom intake plenum to accept it along with a liquid-air intercooler to hopefully save the motor (which would, at that point, be in addition to the air-air intercooler that the turbos feed through, and a water/methanol injection system). The twin turbos are pictured below

    Yeah, that's the plan. I'm drawing the line at 500rwhp though. Beyond that point I am seriously risking the crank, and for this motor a forged crank would be a one-off part, (in this case, $3000 worth of custom machined billet steel). The turbos will feed into the blower, but since they tucker out at about 15lbs of boost, and the supercharger can do more than 15lbs on a 4.6L V8, I will probably under-drive the crap out of the blower and draw the line at 25lbs of total boost. Basically that setup should achieve 15# almost immediately after you crack the throttle, the turbos will spool at like 2800 rpms, and the ecu will then tell everything above 25lbs to bleed off. Even at 500hp the trans will hate me (and probably frag itself after the first sour shift) and the strongest clutch that I can buy for it is rated for 240 ft-lbs of torque. I'll be easily putting out half again that number, so I'll need to source a custom clutch. All of that is assuming that I can tame the wicked double-compressed intake air temperatures enough to prevent spark knock...
