Default wat do u miss most about your car when its off the road??

as the title says, wat do u miss most about your car when its off the road??

for me its the stereo, like my music to sound good and theres nothin like a good car stereo. the other would have to be the feeling of pride a guess, the feeling you get when someone stares at your car when it goes past, least in the xr i knew they thought it looked good. in the EA they are probably laughing an staring haha, i would.

Stereo i must agree with, also the option of frying the rears in 1st and second off the lights or just taking off gently knowing you could flog the car next to you.

I am use to my Car so I hate drving other ppls cars whilst mine is getting worked on - I usualy end up with POS cars to drive and are embarassed to be looked at being the owner

Also when you drive others ppls car when something goes wrong with it then your balmed for breaking it Arrrrrrrrrrrrrg !!!!!

Pride comes in to it but thats a given

Well i have been with out mine for a week, and i miss the ROAR of the V8, the fact that it intimidates commonwhore drivers and pedestians, everyone knows im home, it goes like the clappers and it looks sexy.

Man i cant wait to pick her up and bring her home
