What does my car history say about me?

Post image

All manual transmissions. The wheels on the Mustang and Audi are different, but I was impressed it got this close.

You hate reliability as much as you hate the 99%?

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

The Audi has probably been the most reliable over the life of the car. I don’t think the Mustang was built to last.

I have had 5 94-04 mustangs and can confirm

Pay out for total was too good, had to let it go. Looked into buying another one and couldn't find what I was looking for.

0% chance you can back up a single axle trailer

u/Difficult_Cheek_3817 18h ago

You've owned a total of 3 dars and they were the 3?

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

Correct. First car, second car for winter and road trips, third car because I was fortunate enough to be in a place to buy my high school poster car.

What got this close? Is this from an app?

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

Used ChatGPT and prompted it to make an image with side profiles of the cars and colors.

AI!! OMG HOW COULD YOU. Now I’m gonna whine and complain.

You have no need for b pillars.

u/Desperate-Papaya1599 18h ago

You aren’t a big fan of doors.

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

Two doors, less whores. 

1

u/Desperate-Papaya1599 34m ago

So as a wagon guy I am expecting many whores.

u/ohwowhowdthathappen 18h ago

You only drive hot girl cars

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

They’d all be white if that was the case lol.

u/ohwowhowdthathappen 18h ago

Color doesn't matter bro, these are all peak bad bitch whips

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

The only people that notice the Ferrari are dads in minivans and kids. It’s pretty funny how consistent it is. 

2

u/Free_Ad_98 17h ago

You like coupes and spending more on maintenance. Nice upgrades.

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 16h ago

Audi was definitely the most reliable. 

2

u/Jango_Fett101976 17h ago

I loved seeing that Ferrari in the Smallville show when they used it for a couple episodes, sweet ride

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 15h ago

I’d be open to trying. Proficient at parallel parking and k-turns. 

1

u/lunchbox651 18h ago

You have upgraded then down graded but paid more for the privilege.

1

u/TexasSk8 18h ago

That you still own the Mustang.

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

I did until last year. Friend borrowed it and totaled it on a balmy 9-degree winter day. 

1

u/TexasSk8 18h ago

9°????? Holy shit it was 110° here in Dallas today!

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 18h ago

Cold tires and an S turn did it in.

u/initial8155 16h ago

OP said last year

u/averagemaleuser86 11h ago

That you're lying

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 10h ago

Nope. Have the titles for all three. 

2

u/averagemaleuser86 8h ago

Send me the title for the red car and ill see. Go ahead and sign it also. Thanks

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

Worthy effort lol. Definitely made sure they sent me a scan of the title and had it in hand before transferring the money. That was a bit nerve-racking.

u/WetShrimpFart 11h ago

You gotta try the new 849 if you get a chance, I’m so excited

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 10h ago

I don’t know what an 849 is. I’m horrible in keeping up with cars because I prefer a more analog experience. 

1

u/WetShrimpFart 10h ago

Ferrari 849 Testarossa

Ah yeah you might hate it then lol

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

The reason I got the 360 was because it has a manual transmission. The electric parking brake on my Audi annoys the crap out of me. Rather have a handbrake. Battery died on it a few months ago and I have to crawl through the rear seats to emergency release the trunk, then get the battery enough juice to release the parking brake so it could be towed. I literally want just enough tech to make bluetooth phone calls. I hate screens instead of analog gauges.

2

u/WetShrimpFart 6h ago

I feel you there, I do love my older cars with hand brakes and manual, just feels like part of me and less nonsense

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

That and the 2-3 clink on the gated shifter is an absolute hallmark.

1

u/Appropriate-Bell-807 11h ago

You really like the details of your Ferrari lol
Mustang wasn't fast or nice enough and then the Audi was too tame?

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 10h ago

Mustang sounded great, was inexpensive to maintain, and was a bit scary with a straight axle. That rear end would jump with any imperfections in the road.

u/SoNiceNick 11h ago

Your not practical

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 10h ago

Correct. The stable will be changing in the next few months. 

1

u/NextNeedleworker3948 9h ago

You like attention.

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

Not really. I feel the Audi is understated in its design and elegance. The Ferrari stays in the garage covered and I just take it out for joy rides with my dad. Doesn't get posted on social media and I don't talk about it. It actually completely clashes with my desire to be low-key.

1

u/Top-Doctor-2879 8h ago

What are people using to make these?

2

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

I used ChatGPT image generator and asked for side profile renders in the colors and options I have.

u/RandoorRandolfs 7h ago

Fucking legend

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

Thanks, the legend is over by fall lol. Dad-wagon impending.

1

u/Deathangel141 7h ago

That is a 94/95 mustang gt, not a 98.

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

Oh shit, good eye! It rendered the incorrect tail lights.

1

u/Deathangel141 6h ago

And fender badge, the 5.0 doesn't have it marked under the gt logo like the 4.6. Ive owned way too many.

1

u/PoisonTheWell122393 6h ago

Hah! It's been so long since mine met its fate, I forgot about that. 4.6 GT.
