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?
Current:
- Gen 6 Camaro SS 6MT
- MX-5 RF ND2 6MT
- Mazda 3 HB BP 6MT
Past:
- 8th gen Civic 5MT
- 2nd gen VW Scirocco 16V 5MT
Eyes out for:
- Integra Type S / CTR - was looking to replace the Mazda 3, but holding off in the face of economic & financial uncertainty
- 8th gen civic Si - always looking at the listings, but logistically can’t really take a 4th car righy now
1999 Ford Crown Victoria
2015 Honda CR-Z EX
2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT
How happy are you about the Mach-E GT?
It’s a nice car. Scary to use more than half of the “go” pedal.
If I were buying again, I’d get the extended range RWD model instead.
Overall very happy, but I bought it used and let someone else take the $30k hit on 2 years of depreciation.

How was the FJ? I think about getting one every time I see one on the road.
I loved it but it’s 15-21mpg at best!
Oh that hurts. My 2014 Corvette gets 25mpg average unless I’m on the track.
Model year ascending:

2001 Honda Insight (MT) 2010 Hyundai Accent
2014 Ford Fiesta (MT)
2016 Hyundai Veloster (MT)My ford did me real dirty (blown head gasket@51,988 miles) so I decided to start learning more than basics. 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.
I like flat engines …

Would love to see a picture of your talon if you have one to share!
I don’t, unfortunately. I left it pretty stock besides the Eibach lower springs (can’t remember if it was an inch or what) and slightly bigger exhaust because of the turbo and the muffler changed.
It was red with the black top and fin spoiler, not the raised one like the TSi had.
Sounds beautiful! I had a similar year Eclipse. I loved it but always swooned at the Talons.
That’s funny. I wanted an Eclipse. 🤣
2nd gens were sexy cars!
Absolutely! And then ruined.
Yeeeeeeah. 😢

Prelude takes me back. My dad had an '89 I think, gray with red interior. If I ever strike it big, I’m gonna buy one and restore it for him.
I had it back in 2005, so it had a few years on it when I owned it, but I still miss that car; it was a lot of fun and wish I owned it longer.
1st car -Chevy Corsica (total junk but I loved it) 2nd car - Toyota Matrix (OK) 3rd car - Subaru WRX (love it)
