Hey everyone!

The car community on Lemmy isn’t the most active and I thought it would be nice to list the cars of its members.

Here is my list:

Present: Seat Leon Cupra 300 St 4 drive

Past: Audi S4 B6 Avant manual, Seat Ibiza Cupra

I was really happy with the 4.2 liters V8 in my S4, but the Cupra gives me more performance, more practicality and is cheaper to run. Would have loved a manual version if you could get it with fake AWD.

I plan on keeping the Leon Cupra for another 10 years before switching to an EV Estate if they appear one day.

What’s your list?

I’ve had a whole ton of cars in my life, but I’ll start with my current car and go backwards:

2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL AWD, 2011 Pontiac Vibe AWD, 2002 Dodge Dakota SXT 4x4, 2012 Suzuki SX4 AWD, 1994 Suzuki Swift, 1994 Geo Metro, 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4, 1984 Subaru GL Station Wagon 4x4, 2002 Ford F150 XLT Longbed 2x4, 2016 Hyundai Veloster Turbo, 2007 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4, 2013 Hyundai Elantra, 1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse AWD, 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara, and a 1994 Suzuki Sidekick Sport (First Car).

I’ve loved every car I’ve owned for a variety of reasons, but always had one complaint or another about some lack of functionality that the car had. The Santa Cruz is the first time I’ve not felt the need to pick up an old beater as an alternative, since it meets all my needs pretty well now.

I also have a motorcycle now as well, so I’m no longer as concerned with speed in my cars since I get it on the bike. I ride a 2011 Yamaha Raider.
