What we drive when we aren't driving rubbish...

This is inspired from a thread on the BABERally blog. So when I'm not driving rubbish I usually can be spotted in one of these vehicles:


Usually I drive this car back and forth to work since the gas mileage is pretty good:

It is a 1990 Miata (Little Rowdy) that I bought from Dave a little over two years ago. When Dave had it he swapped a 1.8 drivetrain into it. It also has a few suspension tweaks and it is a real blast to drive. Dave and I and several other friends have bought and sold several cars to each other and we are still friends. I haven't figures out if everyone is really good friends or are if we are secretly trying to kill each other or be each others financial downfall.

BTW, Killboy took that picture on Father's Day two years ago when I went across Deal's Gap on my way to SC. Be sure to check out our link to his blog.

My other car is a 2004 WRX STi (Big Rowdy):

I daily drive this one on occasion as well. It also sees a few autocrosses, but not too many. It is bone stock with the exception of the Simpson child restraint seat in the backseat. My three year old loves to ride back their and rock out to Alice in Chains and Nirvana. Her favorite songs are Nutschell (AIC) and Sliver (Nirvana).

On a few weekends and a lot of autocrosses I drive my '93 RX-7 (just plain Rowdy):

So this is what I drive when I'm not driving rubbish. Dave has some really nice cars also. Maybe he'll post up a few.
