Since I saw there was a thread for the faces of users, why not make one for their cars? I guess I'll start then. My 1955 Ford Customline. Rather unique for a 18 year old I guess.
Keg, Im going to have to say that is that is a pretty nice car you have. I can also relate to the stories of people asking you guys what year your car's are, the only difference is people ask WHAT my car is. My dad and I have taken my car to the local parts store several times, and the look on people's faces is priceless when they see the car, especially when the front hood is open (Open's like a Corvette's) and they don't see the engine in the front. One of those times an old man came up and said he had never seen such a car.
Do you like my car? That's not the usual feedback I get from people. They just laugh when I tell them it doesn't have power windows (I really envy you, thebloxxer), air conditioning or it can't go faster than 80 km/h (50 mph?).
Unless you're joking, of course, and I don't get the sarcasm...
Hey kegaumongo, what kind of gas mileage you get with that fine Renault?
I don't know what units you use or the way you express it, but around 10 L/100km (that's 16 L /100 miles). Well, if I'm not mistaken because my memory fails sometimes...

That's around 23 miles per US gallon. Way better then any car I'll have.

Seriously? Well, I think it's too much (compared with more modern cars), but it is 20 years old. I guess I can't ask for more. However, I still spend a lot of money on gasoline, but at least much less than some years ago. I needed time to learn to drive it properly in order to reduce the fuel consumption.
Dal, No Fiero's (84-88) ever had power steering, so im not out of luck. Some people have managed to put power steering in them they took out of Chevy Chevette's.
Keg, My car also has AC, but it doesen't work. That won't matter right now, have snow everywhere here in Nebraska. BTW, don't worry, my car only makes it up to about 100MPH. ;P
Sorry, on my last post I meant that I AM out of luck on power steering.
Oh and Keg, I was being serious on liking your car. For some reason I attraction to cars most people would deem "crap". On lists of cars I also wanted some of the one's I put on were the AMC Pacer, AMX Gremlin, Ford Pinto, and even the Yugo GV. Please note as daily drivers though.
