GOAT vehicle. It’s purely functional in pristine egg form. Bulletproof drivetrain. Comfy as hell, even by today’s standards. If one ever comes up on autotrader in good condition I’m buying one.

Don’t forget the OG stow and go seats

Makes an amazing buttplug.

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

No base, no go

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Cars fucking dragons is leaking from reddit

[-] Venator@lemmy.nz 3 points 2 months ago

Not to mention it's perfect sports car weight distribution it attained with it's mid engine layout.

My family had a 1994 red one and drove it to 392,000 miles

[-] GluWu@lemm.ee 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Had one that was supercharged and AWD. Awesome for rally, drifted so nicely with the engine low in the center. Rolled it once, didn't even break the big windows, and drove it home. Couple years later it caught fire and the person who I left it with has probably scrapped it.

Edit: I rolled it because I went off a cliff, not because it highsided in a drift, it stayed flatter than a stock impreza.

Fun story, my mom got one sideways on the highway because of black ice once. And she was able to recover it back into normal driving. Beast of a vehicle.

Twas my first vehicle. Friend’s mom sold it to me with 300K miles on it for $1. It had a coolant leak that I couldn’t figure out and one day I forgot to top up the coolant and fried the engine. Later in life I realized it had been a heater core leak that could have easily been fixed if I’d known at the time. The ol’ girl probably could have made it 400K IF ID JUST KNOWN.

(Obviously not the one pictured, mine was white and I think it was a 92)

What's real wheel drive, supercharged, and mid-engined?

This glorious machine!

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

My car is just fake wheel drive ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] electric@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I miss seeing quirky cars. If only the cyber truck wasn't a pedestrian's worst nightmare.

[-] henfredemars@infosec.pub 3 points 2 months ago

How do you feel about the Kia Soul?

[-] electric@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I love them. The entire family across from me own exclusively Souls. So over the years, the drive way and yard will just have like 5 of them parked at once. Funny sight.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

We had one of those when I was a kid. That was a workhorse of a vehicle. It didn't deserve the bad rap it got.

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Like a seal you can drive

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

These were unironically one of the coolest vehicles Toyota ever made. Mid engine, rear wheel drive, the two standalone seats in the middle row, magnetic clutch Supercharger. I think there was even a fridge as an option, like the Prado had.

The next generation is also pretty cool, the hybrids have Totota's AWD system where there is an electric motor for the rear wheels.

[-] SzethFriendOfNimi@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Now that’s a real shuttlecraft

[-] grue@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I've owned a Ford Aerostar and a Kia Sedona, but the Previa is the minivan I wish I had. Mid-engine, manual transmission, AWD, and a supercharger?* Yes, please!

(* Not available all at once on the same car, so I'd have to do some swapping)

[-] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 months ago

My buddy had two identical of these, or it might have been a previous generation, just some old school ass Toyota vans, but he had them both going and heavily modified. Until he set up one with the intakes and exhaust way up high and everything supposedly waterproofed and then drove it straight into the Salton Sea, notoriously saltier than ocean water. So then he had one van.

Theft proof .... as a matter of fact people will probably donate money to you and your vehicle thinking you are some mentally challenged person in need of assistance.

[-] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

I once had an enema version of this car

[-] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago

My dad had one of these, he said it got like 12 to the gallon

[-] quink@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Not quite the same, but you'll be prying my imported 2004 Estima from my cold dead hands.
