2005 Pathfinder SE 4X4 Off Road. Mods include tinted windows and 18" 2009 LE wheels with 285/65-19 Nitto Terra Grapplers. Its fast, mint, and tough as ****. I like to smoke PhiSig in his yuppie mobile. I also recently acquired a 1993 Honda Accord EX which I currently use for late night Clifton runs. We should have a beater meet.

1993 grand cherokee laredo, original color was factory black with some little pin stripes but now its flat black all around.
Mods: 2 out of the 4 speakers work, tweeters only half function, JVC headunit, MORE lights, Red LED lights underneath, "ZooYork MAFIA" and "CHROMIN" red vinyls, painted rims with a red line around, and plentyyy of memories.

Yes DJParis seems to be a fender ahead of me in whatever he drives.

That accord is pretty stout, I must admit, suspension still feels pretty tight
for a 15 year old car.

We need to have a SUPER beater demo demolition derby, my Dookie Brown on Brown '86 Nissan Stanza Wagon will own u.

I'm retired now so I don't have to worry about a daily driver. However, if it snows I will be driving either my Caravan or my Miata.

2003 Infiniti I35





Trying to find B13 SE-R or another S13 but after owning over 7 240s I think its pretty useless for a winter beater/DD. B13 would work quite well though.

'98 honda accord. Blizzaks and Thule roof rack with motordyne, JWT, tein, and a bunch of other stickers that came with all the **** i bought for the Z. Gained 15WHP with all those stickers.

Which probably brings me up to 85 horse power since it has 210,000 miles on it. It can sit for 3 weeks and start on the first crank everytime.

God I love that car

97 Lexus LX450 (Land Cruiser) - My DD for over 10 years and 200k !! I love this truck. It has an Alpine DVD with custom headrests with monitors and hidden dual 8" subs w/amps, full time 4wd and maybe 15-18 mpg. All I do to get ready for winter is switch the 22" rims for the stockers
