Flames on the Hood

Image by conhunter via Flickr

Introducing Paul Gebel; Husband, daddy, strategy & tech consultant with Booz Allen Hamilton, graphic design and MBA grad from RIT, Iraq Veteran, Navy Officer, deacon (elect) at MOPC.

What was your first car?

• I inherited my parents’ 1986 Oldsmobile Delta 88. I promptly went out and got $900 of aircraft grade acrylic enamel and painted it jet black with flames on the hood. I drove that to senior prom.
  

Any significant memories w/that car?

• In college, I was in the Navy ROTC program, and the physical training was early in the morning across town from RIT at the UofR. One morning (running a little late) down East River Road by GVP, an 8-point buck decided to end his life in a flaming heap on my beloved paint-job. First and only automotive encounter with a deer - left my car totaled.
  

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• My garage is now the proud home of a 2002 Subaru Forester.
  

Does your car reflect your personality?

• The scooby reflects a side of my personality. The side that gets the groceries and needs AWD for surviving Rochester winters… but it is a small side all-in-all.
  

Favorite vehicle(s)?

• Well that is a frustrating question. I guess my favorites by category would look something like this: Hot Rod - ‘32 Coup Roadster - BMW Z4 Truck - Chevy Silverado Family Wagon - Nissan Murano Sports Car - Audi R8 I would have no idea what to choose if I had to pick one *favorite* car.
  

Favorite vehicle…if money were no object?

• Ironically, I didn’t think to put this on favorites, because I guess it’s all of the above in one. If I had a million bucks, I would grab a BMW 5 Series Gran Tourismo. It’s not the sexiest thing that BMW has ever made, but I think it covers a lot of bases very elegantly.
  

Vanity Plates?

• Nope

Must have car gadget?

• iPod. I drive a LOT.
  

Favorite driving tunes?

• Podcasts. Since I’m on the road so much, spoken word is the best way to make the time go by. I am hooked on howstuffworks.com’s self-named podcasts. Josh and Chuck are hilarious. Actual tunes… gotta go with Red Hot Chili Peppers.
  

Favorite Hollywood movie car?

• The Lexus concept from Minority Report.

O-So-Dreamy & Hot

Introducing LiRe’ Cassaro; Luv info! Patient advocate;ministry founder,host women’s weight loss group;writer;marketing; lover of people & furry creatures.

What was your first car?

• 1967 Toyota Corona. My grandmother paid $400 for it for my 16th birthday.

Any significant memories w/that car?

• Two things: After I had the car for awhile, it got some sort of short in the horn, and there were plenty of times when it would ‘honk’ at good looking guys all by itself. My ‘girls’ and I liked that part. :) The second thing was the passenger door wouldn’t always secure completely, so I almost lost a couple of friends on some turns.

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• 2005 V6 Honda Accord - I call her the Golden Chariot.

Does your car reflect your personality?

• Yeah, but an upgrade to a Lexus LS460L in Obsidian would be o-so-dreamy and hot!

Suck Its Fumes…

Image by Ed Callow [ torquespeak ] via Flickr

Introducing Raymond Champion; I’m endearingly sarcastic, polychronic, and a genius. I explore life intellectually and physically through free love, freethought, and libertarian transhumanism.

What was your first car?

• My first “real” car was a 1997 Acura Integra GS-R, which I loved. Sadly, it was also loved by car thieves.

Any significant memories w/that car?

• I lost my virginity in the Integra GS-R on the night I bought it (kudos to Acura for the assist).

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• My semi-functional 1990 Chevy Silverado 4x4. My girlfriend’s 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid.

Does your car reflect your personality?

• The Silverado money pit reflects my sentimentality; I only keep it because it was my Dad’s. The Civic Hybrid reflects my “green” streak.

Favorite vehicle(s)?

• The Tesla Roadster Sport. It does 0-60 MPH in 3.7 second, on batteries. Suck its fumes, Ferrari! Oh, wait… It doesn’t have any.

Favorite vehicle…if money were no object?

Vanity Plates?

• None currently, but I’d steal Austin Powers’ SHAGUAR plates (if Jaguars didn’t suck).

Must have car gadget?

• I can barely make it out the door without a GPS. I’m tempted to by a Verizon Droid just for the Google Maps. But Romulan cloaking device runs a close second.

Favorite driving tunes?

• Depends on how far I’m going and how fast I want to get there, so anything from Bach to techno.

Favorite Hollywood movie car?

• 1981 DeLorean DMC 12 from “Back to the Future Part II” (time machines aren’t cool unless they can fly).

What was your first car?

• My first car was a 1984 Pontiac Firebird. It had an Oldsmobile small block 400 in it, that machine could move!

Any significant memories w/that car?

• I got a great deal on the car. The guy I bought it from had bought it from a guy who had been in the Air Force. The Air Force guy is the one that put the 400 into it and was still working on it when I sold it to the guy I bought from. One time, an off duty State Trooper commented to me about driving through a tight curve and said man don’t tell me you don’t know how to drive a car!

Fun and Different

Image via Wikipedia

Introducing Steve Garfield; Author: Get Seen, Online Video Secrets / Founder of Boston Media Makers

What was your first car?

• The first car that I drove around was my father’s 1967 Pontiac Tempest. It was a four door and had a V8 engine. That was a great car. My actual first car that I owned was a Ford Torino.

Any significant memories w/that car?

• The Ford Torino was a lemon of a used car. It had to get the engine replaced. On a spring break trip down to Miami from UMass Amherst we were afraid to turn the car off for fear of it not starting up again. We had a great trip to the Florida Keys though.

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• I drive a 2000 VW New Beetle. It’s the longest I’ve ever owned a car.

Does your car reflect your personality?

• It does. It’s fun and different.

Favorite vehicle(s)?

• I’ve always liked the Ford Mustang. I’m interested in seeing what the 2010 looks like. I almost bought one after high school but the frame was cracked. I like everything about BMW’s. Great styling, service and handling.

Favorite vehicle…if money were no object?

• I mainly do a lot of city driving, so I like a small car that has good handling. The New Beetle pretty much meets my needs right now and I don’t see anything that would prompt me to replace it.

Vanity Plates?

• No. My dad would NEVER get a vanity plate OR allow a bumper sticker on the car

Must have car gadget?

Rookie Driving Mistakes

Introducing Jim Hughes; Founder & Chief Content Director @ The Content Studio - Marketing & Communication - Web & Social Media Management, Content & Inbound Marketing

What was your first car?

• 1961 Chevy Impala. Trust me - it was old when I drove it as well. My grandmother gave it to me when I turned 16. Cool car, V8 engine, solid as a tank. It was good for making rookie driving mistakes (i.e.: it took chunks out of trees without damaging the bumper).

Any significant memories w/that car?

• Sure many memories. Driving with friends to many concerts, dating, double dating, etc. Aerosmith, Jethro Tull, Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, KISS, Led Zeppelin all come to mind. I won’t reminisce about the dates here. Oh by the way - the Impala lasted my Grandmother over 17 years - it lasted with me only 17 months!

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• Audi A6 Great car for the New England winters. Quattro baby!

Does your car reflect your personality?

• Interesting. At times it does. I currently have a silver A6.. black is far more my personality considering its the color I wear most of the time.

Favorite vehicle(s)?

• Audi, BMW, Lexus, Benz, Old Mustangs, Old Chargers.

Introducing Ralph Paglia; Director of Digital Marketing and Advertising Solutions at ADP Dealer Services

What was your first car?

• I bought my first car in 1973 when I was 16 years old from the head mechanic at Bob Johnson Chrysler Plymouth in Springville, NY. It was a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner that he had special ordered from the factory with equipment combinations not normally included. I paid $550 for that light yellow pillarless hardtop with black interior, 383 Magnum engine with Offenhauser intake and two 650CFM Carter AFB 4 barrel carbs, Hooker adjustable headers, special order Hemi Torqflite 727 auto tranny and a Surgrip 373:1 rear end. That Road Runner was so fast it was like driving an amusement park ride!
  

Any significant memories w/that car?

• Oh my God yes! Too many for this space, but my first street race is a good one. One of the jocks in my high school had just received a brand new 1973 Chevy Camaro Z28 from his dad. I had my Road Runner for 3 days when he challenged me to a street race… Across the Rt. 219 bridge that connects Erie with Cattaraugus County NY over a 2,500 foot gorge (Zoar Valley). Too many cute girls around to say no, so I accepted his challenge and agreed to wager $300 I did not have. The race was set for midnight on Friday when we could close the highway from both ends, in true outlaw street racing fashion. I was so scared I was nauseous, but luckily my step-sister’s boyfriend had a beef with the Camaro owner and offered to cover the bet if I let him drive my Road Runner. I agreed and we met on the Cattaraugus side of the bridge at 11:30 PM. When he opened the hood of my Road Runner his eyes bulged and he asked “who did all this?” pointing to the 2x4 barrel carbs sitting on top the hirise Offy manifold and the Hooker headers. I said “that’s the way I bought it…”. Anyways, I watched from the finish line on the Erie County side as my yellow Road Runner kicked that Camaro’s ass by more than 5 car lengths in less than a quarter mile. We had set flares at both ends about a half mile from the bridge each way. Our motörhead friends were wearing road worker vests and had traffic stopped in both directions. As I ran to the Road Runner and jumped into the passenger side, we could hear the wail of police sirens, so my buddy kicked that Road Runner down activating the secondaries on those big Carters and I was smashed into the back of the seat by G forces as we rocketed up the grade from the bridge Northbound on Rt. 219 and soon rolling at over 120 MPH. After the night I was accepted by the Motorhead Clique, and hot ridding and street racing became a big part of my life all the way through 4 years of college and 2 years of Grad school. I had so many adventures in that Road Runner that if I could buy it back today I would surely pay stupid money for it. But, then there were the Dodge Super Bees, Plymouth Cuda Convertible and a brief fling with a genuine 426 Hemi Road Runner that followed and they all have great stories to go with their descriptions. Here’s a trivia question for muscle car collectors; what did Plymouth name the engines in those few 426 Hemi Road Runners built between 1968 and 1971? Right on top of that big Dual Quad aircleaner that sealed to the cold air intake hood was the bright metal circular insert that had cartoon characters and announced the big Hemi as the “Coyote Duster”. 
  

What’s parked in your driveway now?

• I have 3 cars in my garage at home in Gilbert, AZ. 1. A 2006 Chevy HHR mildly customized with lowered suspension, 18” Chromed Alloys and Pirelli P-Zero low profile wide tires, full tint and custom blue candy apple paint… I have it for my mother in law to drive! 2. 2008 Cadillac CTS with HO Direct Injection engine option, Xenon HID lights that turn with steering wheel, Navi system, killer tunes and every possible option except AWD (Arizona!) 3. 2002 Ford Expedition XLT 4x4 with optional big Triton V8 and all the goodies that made so many of us love big SUV’s… And I still love my Expedition! 92,000 miles on it and everything still works perfect, but it is actually better than new because it is paid off, as is the HHR! 
  

Does your car reflect your personality?

• The Cadillac is fast and aggressive when I am in the mood, and the Ford Expedition reminds me of me moving through a crowded airport getting my business done and anyone in our way better move… Now! So, yeah in some ways. But I miss the Impala SS I had which was blindingly fast and slippery through Phoenix traffic. 
  

Favorite vehicle(s)?

• 1. 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2. 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 3. 2000 Mercedes-Benz ML55 AMG 4. 2010 Ford F150 Raptor edition 5. 2010 Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG 6. 1971 Dodge RT w/426 Hemi 7. 1968 Plymouth GTX Convertible
