Which car was your favorite among the cars you've owned? | Yakezie Reader Insights | Yakezie Forums

Nothing to do with personal finance, but what was/is your favorite car and what is that you like about it!  I'll start – mine's a Mustang and I liked it for  a weird reason – the seats were the most comfortable I've felt in any car!  Can't explain it, but they are super comfortable!

Sadly don't own it anymore, but being my first car, always have a special liking to the Mustang!

Dream Car – McClaren F1

If you Google for images and specs, you will understand why I love this car. Only $1 million used these days.

Real Car – Toyota Corolla

Small, comfortable, fuel efficient, works fine in Colorado summers and winters, plenty of trunk space, reliable, low maintenance. It has just been a great car.

PS – I absolutely hate giant trucks (unless really used for truck abilities) and SUVs. HATE!

Honda Fit!! Fit is go… all the way. It will fit into most tiny parking lot. Heck, if I tried hard I can park nose in, in a parallel spot :)  I will probably get a ticket though. And all the seats go in or can be flat, so for a small car it has enormous amount of room, close to an SUV. I am driving it until I run it to the ground, then buying another fit.

 

Haven't driven one, but it looks pretty nice!  Being Honda, I'm sure gives decent mileage as well!

No favorite cars, just as long as it gets me there and back without trouble.

Mine was a Dodge Ram Pickup, pretty much for no other reason than it made me feel powerful when I was driving it. It sat higher than anything else I've been in! Now I own a Jeep, and it's just ok…

 

Reminds me of that old HEMI ad!

Love our 2011 Subaru Outback.  We saved over $9300 by importing it from the US into Canada.  SWEET all the time all wheel drive.  PZEV technology which makes it kinda green.  And we got ours in the colour green, which fits well.

On our site, under the US Car Import page where we have 6 articles.  Totally love this car.

I got made fun of it a lot, but I loved my Ford Probe GT.  It was like climbing into a sleeping bag and even though it killed my back, it handled like a race car and had a lot of pick-up!  And oh how I miss driving a manual transmission….but just not practical for driving in traffic these days.

You've attained auto nirvana!  Hoping to get there soon and save a bundle!!

My favorite car to drive was my 2000 Dodge Durango 5.9 V8, but the better car for financial reasons was my 1988 Honda Accord which I drove to 160,000 miles before gifting it to my sister. She took it over 200,000 and still sold it for $700!

In highschool I had an old 94 Chrysler Concorde that my grandpa no longer drove.  This thing was a tank, burned gas like no other but OMG I now know why old people buy big cars–the front bucket seats were as comfortable as any recliner.

 

I drove the heck out of that car, and despite all its flaws and the fact it was so freaking ugly, I would have driven it from coast-to-coast it was that roomy.

My brother in law has also had a Concorde and man, they sure are roomy!
