Plates in WV are 50 bucks a year. (were 30 until 2 years ago) My liability insurance only is a few hundred per vehicle... Plus until my recent acquisition comes through on my property taxes, I pay next to nothing since anything over 20 years old is assessed 2 dollars and change per vehicle.  (if you want to buy a…

Is this THE Yekaterina Petrova Zamodchikova?

That’s why I’ve never been able to bring myself to sell my 90.  Even after over 25 years of owning it, I still love driving it.  I want to make it as close to factory as I can get it someday.  

Exactly! V6 AND manual?  I wish I had the money and room for it!  

Like I tell people, they may not be fast or fancy, but they are as reliable as you will get.  My parents bought me a 90 DX in 95 with 120,000 miles on it when I was 16.  I love that little boxy car!  In the last 25+ years the only time it has ever broken down is when the ignition coil gave out at 250k! I decided years…

Same. Except my folks opted for blue and it is still beautiful 32 years later

I have an 88 Camry with blue interior and love it. 

Mine is going to need that done eventually.  I’ve had it so long, and I’m so attached, I will end up fixing it.  It doesn’t lose much right now.  just seeping enough to make a mess after sitting, which it does a lot.  Especially this year.  I’ve been working remote since March.  I have filled it up only twice in…

That’s why I daily an uncool old car.  1990 Camry.  278,000 miles and it just keeps going.  My winter daily on the other hand, not so much.  It is a 95 F150 and after 9 years, I am sick of fixing it and it’s terminal rust issues.  I am selling it and looking to replace it with a mid to late 2000's Tacoma (ideally a…

Buy a car hauler, move to WV (outside city limits of course). Cheaper living, and nobody pays any attention to vehicles that don’t move for decades (or in the case of my F150 from the end of Feb to last week, so I was finally able to get my near mint 88 Camry V6 LE out of the garage since the truck was blocking that…

But unlike the Colorado, manual transmission.

I’m not in that group.  Even though I live rural (WV) I am close enough to town, I could almost get away with that 900 clown car Torchinsky just bought and only use my gas car for the rare occasion I need to go to the next town, about 25 miles away.  I would just need one with a little more juice and torque so it…

This is me 100%! I have been driving my first car since 1995. It is a 1990 Camry that turned over 120k on the way home from the dealer. 25 years later, I’m at a little over 277k and it has only broken down once. New ignition coil at 250k and the occasional repair when something wears out. The clearcoat has peeled off…

I also have multiple record players you have to wind up, so yeah I like old stuff, particularly mechanical old stuff. 

I still use an iPod classic with a cassette adapter. 

Two of mine still have cassette decks ;)

Toyota did those for a while too.  That would be my preference for a backup camera as well.  I am a no touch screen car guy.  I plan on avoiding it as long as possible.

A lot of it depends on who is running the IT department. I used to work for a public university and the network director was puritanical(home schooled and very religious). He actually put in place a tool on the network that blocked any and all sites he deemed problematic. This included sites where I occasionally…

That’s one I’ve never seen before then.  All the ones I’ve seen factory on the SW20 were not that tall and curved down at the ends to fit somewhat flush with the tops of the rear quarter panels. 

As much as I love the SW20 MR2, I voted CP because for that money, I would want a completely stock machine in mint condition. The wheels are an easy swap, but not a fan of that spoiler. Not a fan of black either, as my first choice on these is Signal Yellow. I almost bought one of these (black just because of the…
