I’ll start with my little sister (19) and her 2002 Mercedes-Benz E320.

Next is my older brother (32) with his 2014 Toyota Camry XLE V6 for him and 2009 Jeep Cherokee Laredo for his wife (32)

Finally the oldest which is my sister (36) with her 2014 Volvo XC90 R-Design and her husband (37) with his company truck, 2015 Silverado

So OPPO, what do your siblings drive?

Mine are both pretty awesome - one younger brother drives an AW11 Toyota MR2, the other, a thoroughly worn out but highly characterful Citroën BX (one of two in the family).

My twin inherited our 2004 Mazda3 (car in pic is identical to his):

While my little brother got stuck with a 1997 Cutlass that I picked out for him (again not my pic but very similar apart from a cracked bumper and scraped-up subframe from when he crashed it):

No siblings for me. If you wanna go family though, stepdad has a 99 F-250 (7.3 ftw!) and an 09 Alitma, mom has an 05 Sport-Trac and a 66 Mustang (red on red, she always wanted one), and wife has an 06 Liberty Anniversary Edition.

No, that was the Envoy XUT? Anyway that was an Envoy option. The EXT is a three row Trailblazer or Envoy, the regular ones were only two row.

Young brother drives 06 Hyundai accent hatch, youngest drives some recent Gen Hyundai something like every other car on the road. Sadly, I am the last family member to view autos as anything more than practical transportation. Passing this down would be the only reason I can think of that I would want a child. Well that and humiliating the thing every chance I get.

My older sister drives a 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit 3 door, Tornado Red, automatic, with the 2.5L 5 cylinder. It looks the exact same as the one pictured.

My younger brother has his license, but no car yet.

It looks pretty standard, since the 33 inch tires on that thing look normal. They aren’t anything fancy, they were literally take from an F350 and plopped on there.

Only have one sibling, but he’s definitely more automotively inclined than I am...and kind of running all over the place and having 2 little kids it’s quite impressive his level of jalop-ness he’s been keeping up lately. He also lives in Asia, so pretty unique cars that we don’t get to see stateside

Daily driver - 1st gen Toyota Mark X (with the 2.5 V6 I believe) -

His restoration project - a Toyota AE85 that has been specced out to be an AE86... a lot of the work was done by previous owner...brother had it painted, cleaned up, working on suspension etc. -

His wife is Japanese, so they spend part of the time out there...I believe he still has this parked out there, although I doubt it gets driven much anymore - ‘99 Toyota Corolla BZ Touring wagon...6 speed manual, factory ITBs, etc...pretty cool specs for something so mainstream

So, I guess it’s safe to say he’s a Toyota guy...

Also, unless my mother gets a change of mindset, they won’t get her anything that has a resemblance of speed. My Mom is still uneasy that I plan on getting something that is almost fast in the near future. It’s a FiST, and they aren’t much quicker than the Trailblazer that I drove for the first year of having my license. No normal, not lowered SUV should be able to do 127mph...

Boom!

Yeah I just wish she would drive it more. It started life as a 6'er. Stapdad and his dad switched to a 302 out of an 86 Thunderbird with a 4 barrel and a 3-speed (sucks but not my car). The car had been restored to a point, but my stepdad put another chunk of money into it between the motor/trans, interior, wheels/tires, and suspension. The problem is some of it was just inda half-assed, so it doesn’t run like it should and she is afraid it will stall everytime it’s driven. Oh well.

The liberty is dark blue and basically garbage, but it’s paid off. Can’t really complain on that part.

The Fit was definietly fun as a first car back in high school! The SE-R just adds lightness, power, and unreliability...

Yes. Bicycles and public transportation. To be fair, even though I got my drivers licence at the youngest age one could here (18), I only got my first car at age 27. Even back then it was a luxury I didn’t need to get around. At age 33 I now own 6 cars and have a company car, but that’s besides the point I guess.

EL_ULY > duurtlang 03/07/2016 at 18:24

I understand. in Mexico DF you really don’t need a car ever so a lot of people don’t have cars. Here in Texas though, 100% opposite

It’s Focus sized. Time was when Nissan and Toyota used to sell the same cars around the world but now they’ve differentiated them. Most of their North American lineup are completely unknown to me.

My brother (17) led my Saab to it’s ultimate demise (he just started breaking things on it somehow, maybe it was the 200,000 miles) and we sold it and bought him a 2011 Ford Fiesta.

Loading the Saab onto the Volvo when it broke in Boone.

The Fiesta when I borrowed it to go canoeing. I think it was a good deal at $5000 with 70k on it.
