Driving back home from a party with 3 really hot chicks in my car, the sound system bumpinm, going down an urban street at 180km/h. Caught a little bit of air over one of the hills.

The Car was a 2003 Hyundai Elantra, it has quiet a bit of punch for a 2.0 4-cylinder (enoungh to destroy stock Cavi's, Civic's, Focus's and Mazda Protege 5)

Or when me and my two best friends were just crusin in my dad's 97 Nissan Pathfinder with the system up, pickin up some honey's.

I like Hyundai's new leather interiors. If I had the extra cash for a NEW daily driver, I'd get me one of those. Most likely, the Tiburon V6.

hmm. gee. my favorite driving experiences would be: autocrossing, and taking my car out on some backroads, rev-matching as i downshift into a sweet 'S' turn. OH YEAH :drooling: and then making a great exit.

Best driving experience:

Driving 2 friends to school in my brothers modified '73 Mustang Mach I (about 450whp with super-****ty brakes) in the rain.

We were going about 60mph+ when some soccer mom pulled out right smak dab in front of us. I knew the brakes sucked and the car weighs 8 million tons, so i yanked the wheel and put it in the grass. I had so much momentum, i passed her..in the grass..with the brakes locked up, and got back on the road all within like 2-3 seconds.

Another good one was the day i got my 1gen rx7. It ran out of gas and i coasted FOREVER. Had just enough momentum to make it to the gas pump at the gas station.

First time I drove my turbo prelude...memories....

My friend letting me be the first to hit vtec in his s2k. I was also the first to go >100, and the first to do donuts in it. Recently visted him and did some donuts in the rain with it = teh fun!

tailing someone going the speed limit in the passing lane, dropping it to 3rd, switching lanes, and then look at them like they are retarded while passing.

When I was like 15 or so my sister's boyfriend showed up with his uncles new Acura NSX. We drove it around all fast and we went to the freeway and took it up to 155mph. I didnt really think it was cool at the time because I was into computers, not cars. But now it was pretty cool when I think back on it.

Come to think of it..We had a family friend who owned a S14 97 OR 98 Red SE....I was about 13 or 14 when she let me drive it all the way home from our 15 mile away mall. So I guess I have driven a 240 before huh? Not exactly an adrenaline rush but when you're that young it's really fun...In fact we use to go to dealerships to take testdrives in sports cars (she'd drive of course)..Those salesman can be really nice whenthey arent trying to sell you something

the most fun i ever has was driving on the parkway cruisin in the middle lane at like 80, when this black 2000 ish accord v6 came flyin past me... i nailed the gas, and went to catch up... i caught up to him a about 110, and pulled to 120... he defentally kept with me, when i maxed the car out at 130... well i guess it was about 130 because thats past my speedo... well were flyin through the night (3am) and blow past a state trooper who actually pulled off the fast lane of the road to let us goeveryone was screaming at me to slow down... we both braked to about 100 and them he took off again i took off after him not the next exit, but the one after that... he had to slow down for the tolls... i guess the thing i like about that night is cus in my own way i got back at the cops for all the times they did catch me...-g-
