i challange anyone to have a better beater then mine because i have the ultimate beater! A beautiful 1982 1.3L carburated civic hatchback! I paid $150 for it and it runs great and i get almost 40mpg. it is also fully loaded including no radio, no window rollers(vice grips are used instead,ha), missing lock cylinder on passenger side door, and a broken one on the drivers side, missing hatch lock(yea so every time i hit a bump my hatch flys up a bit and makes a loud bang), no AC, broken hydralic lifters for the hatch, and to top it off includes a 4 speed manual transmission. yea and the only lock that does work on the car with the key is the one on the gas door, so i dont have to worry about anyone stealing my gas! well if anyone has a better beater then mine id like to know about it. but in all seriousness, every day getting in that POS and driving it all day knowing that i have a FD back at my garage that i cant drive right now really is depressing

Mine's a 2005 Ford "Tortoise" company car and a 98 SVT Cobra. |
I have a 1980 RX-7. I don't like to call it a beater because i like it alot. 24 years old and runs strong.

acura tl type s,

1993 super awesome stock color green 5sp SL2 Saturn DOHC with neon light under my driver seat (my parents gave it to me for a stocking stuffer, and just felt bad if i didn't use it somewhere). I get about 27-30 mpg, has been really reliable, never had any major problems with it, since our family bought way back in 1994.

My DD is a 92 Integra LS with Leather and all power options. I get 29-34mpg.
I am trying to justify having a 2nd 2-seater and get a MKI Mr2 NA (35mpg!). However, RWD 2 seater as a DD and winter car as backup to a...turbocharged RWD 2 seater...doesn't seem to add up ;) |

Beater
I drive the 7 daily in the warm months. I drive a white 1988 Chevrolet Caprice Classic as the winter unit. No hub caps, going for the cop look. 177K miles on the original motor and tranny and still runs like a champ.

1992 Mazda Miata
I'm surprised almost no FD guys have Miatas. If you live in a place with good weather, don't need to haul a lot of stuff around and are confident in your masculinity you can't have more fun on the street than with a Miata. I'd sell my FD first. |
Beater.... Anything made in the USA (common domesitic) or that has a 1950's piece reciprocating of "technology" that has 8 cylinders configured in a V pattern that would be more suited for a boat anchor.

after having it for about 2 months now and no problems, yesterday it had its first. i was on I-95 North and i lost half my exhaust. from the cat back there is nothing. DAMN now i actually have to put some money into it. im gonna leave the whole piece that broke off in my car until i get pulled over for not having a muffler on there so i can tell the cop that it just broke off a hour ago, then ill get it fixed |
My beater is a 1995 Honda Accord Coupe EX.
