Do we have any other car guys? IIRC Phatty has a 'Lade (Malibu's Most Wanted?) and Armani drives a C-class.
1. What do you currently drive?
2. Favorite car you've owned?
3. Favorite car you've driven?
4. Dream Car?
I'll go
1. Current: 2010 Honda Fit sport and 2005 Volvo XC90 (Volvo's big SUV, for Wifey, kids and the various sports teams involved).
2. Owned: 1989 Acura Legend L coupe– dropped to the ground, shaved badges, 5-speed... I'd kill to find another one like it.
3. Driven: Honda s2000. I told the dealer when we bought the Volvo that I'll take the Volvo if he lets me take the s2000 around Columbus for 1/2 an hour. My wife handled the paperwork while I took the Honda for a spin.
4. Dream: s2000... would settle for Nissan 370z or Subaru BRZ
Favorite Buckeye: Urban Meyer, John Simon, Big Hank, Ryan Shazier, Craft, Lenzelle, Buford, Sully

Holy smokes, I've owned way too many to list. My wife gets bored with stuff quickly. If I didn't have such a big D, I'd probably be a thang of the past too hehe..
Anyways...
Currently..
2011 Ford Escape
2010 Caddillac Escalade
2006 Jeep Commander
We usually take the Commander as the "family" ride because it has a DVD player and that usually keeps the kids tame...
I have 22's on the 'Lade and 15 inch sub speakers. It was like that when I bought it, don't judge me...I do drive it with my slight gangsta lean though..

Nissan Sentra. Don't knock it. I loved that thing. It. Was. A. Stick. The only one I've ever owned, and I miss it to this day. Don't knock a 4 banger with a stick!

3. Favorite car you've driven?
Really haven't had much opportunity to drive anything spectacular. My favorite car to drive was probably the Sentra because of the stick. We had lots of open roads around where I grew up. I could get that thing up to 120.... I think it was governed or something and wouldn't go higher. I really wish I could say I've at least gotten to drive a Mustang or something, but I just haven't. Lame, I know. My grandpa had a 1957 Chevy Bel-Air when I was in high school but would never let me drive it.... for some reason... lol
Oh you mean to own? I'm actually not super picky. Anything at the level of Ferrari from Europe would do me. I was a much more enthusiastic car guy back in high school, but am honestly out of the game. I need to get some car mags and start re-familiarizing myself. Or at least watch Speed on cable.... oh wait... cable....

Favorite to drive ---
I used to own a 1968 Jeep CJ6...
Straight 6, 3 speed...35" mudders..
Reverse was top left on the shifter...
I built in a permenent cooler and would just cruise around the back roads with my homies. It didn't have a top, I just parked it in the garage...
It was red origionally, but I would say the color that it was when I owned it was rust..
I had that Jeep for about 8 years and then I started popping out kids every year so the garage didn't have the room that it used to and at the time the $1200 sounded good so I sold it...
I wish I would've just parked it in my grandpa's barn and tarped it so my boy could have it in about 13-14 years...
I could've re-modeled it for him..

I had an Audi A4 quattro that was a ton of fun in the snow. I found some 15" wheels and small truck tires and had plans to turn it into the most stylish "mudder" of all time... but we needed it for trade-in.
