Fauxie

Never owned a car.

Can I post a pic of me mum's car that I used to drive when I first got me license? smile I pretty much owned the sucker when I went back anyway. Ford Fiesta 16v, probably from around '96 or '97.

Almost identical (colour too) to this:





I loved it. Very quick. nod

lol Does anybody remember the song Adam Sandler sang entitled: "Ode to My Car"? The thing that is funny is that I used to think the song was entitled, "Piece of Shit Car". lol

Ode To My Car Lyrics
by Adam Sandler

Here we go

Piece of shit car
I got a piece of shit car
That fuckin' pile of shit
Never gets me very far

My car's a big piece of shit
'Cause the shocks are fucking shot
And my seatbelt's fucking broken
I got to tie it in a knot
(It's a piece of shit)

I can't see through the windshield
'Cause it's got a big fucking' crack
And the interior smells real bad
'Cause my friend puked in the back
(It's a piece of shit)

(Piece of shit car)
Piece of shit car
(He's got a piece of shit car)
It sucks royal dick
(That fuckin' pile of shit)
100% crap
(Never gets him very far)
Oh fuck you car

It's got no CD player, it only got the 8-track
Whoever designed my car can lick my sweaty nut sack
(They can bite his ass too)
And I got no fuckin' brakes
I'm always way out of control
Eleven times a day I hear "Hey, watch it asshole"
(You fuckin' piece of shit)

(Piece of shit car)
I got piece of shit car
(He got a piece of shit car)
Diesel gas sucks my ass
(That fuckin' pile of shit)
That pile of metal shit
(Never gets him very far)

Oh what the fuck did I do
What the fuck did I do
What the fuck did I do
To get stuck with you
You're too wide for drive-thru
And you smell like the shoe
But I'm too broke to buy something new
Oh fuck me

Well the engine likes to flood
The car always fuckin' stalls
And the seat cushion's got a big rip
So a spring always pokes the balls
(Ouch, ouch, ouch)
Plus the door locks are busted
I gotta use a fucking coat hanger
(What a pain in his ass)
And if a girlie sees my car
There's no chance I'll ever bang her
(He never ever gets da pussy)
Hey shut up
(Piece of shit car)
You piece of shit car

(You got a piece of shit car)
You piece of shit car
(Piece of shit car)
Bald fuckin' tires
(You got a piece of shit car)
No rearview fucking mirror
(Piece of shit car)
Seven different colors
(You got a piece of shit car)
Fucking rag for a gas cap
(Piece of shit car)
Tailpipe makes the sparks fly everywhere
(You got a piece of shit car)
(Piece of shit car)
(You got a piece of shit car)
(Piece of shit car)
Oh the whole town thinks I'm a loser
(You got a piece of shit car)
Cabby give me a push
(Piece of shit car...)

Yep. Mine too. It was reddish-orange. I went around singing "Little Orange Chevette. . .baby, you've got to slow down". . . mr.green

These cars are wonderful, at least when they're not in the shop (which is often... it's said that Fiat stands for, "Fix it again, Tony"). And they've got a special appeal due to their relative rarity. But for most people, I'd recommend buying a Mazda Miata instead... it's very similar, and unlike the Fiat Spider, reliable.


The Fiat is so cute, though. smile


Oh, sure... Pininfarina (the Italian studio that designed the body... they've also done design work for other brands, including Ferrari) did a great job. I love the classic round headlights and twin "bulges" on the hood:



the curves of the trunk:



and the interior with its wood dashboard and individual gauges (see picture in previous post).

I do think, though, that the Miata (at least the second-generation cars, 1999-present) is equally cute. The exterior lines are both retro and modern:



and the interior has some nice touches, such as the white gauges used on the 2000 Special Edition and all Miatas from model year 2001 on:



As for whether the second-generation Miata design will stand the test of time, like the Fiat Spider, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
