my 97es300 is the beater...175k and going....

 

I'll never understand the concept of buying a car that's not a rare car and letting it rot away in a garage collecting dust.

My GS400 is my daily... 190k and rolling strong...

 

My SC300 is reliable but I refuse to drive a single turbo car with 19's and a bodykit 70 plus miles daily with the possibility of rain and snow and not to mention traffic with a stage 3 spec clutch

My car is not a race car by any means but some days I just want to chill and not worry about rain/snow/traffic/clutch/cops/everybody wanting to race/etc.......

 

I used to also have a '90 Accord EX and '85 Cressida. Both were great beater cars and able to drive great distances to pick up parts for my Lexus.

 

2003 honda accord as the daily beater.. probably 60 mile commute daily (in LA traffic)

 

My sig is my beater

 

my GS is my daily beater...

 

I like to think of the "beater" being the "rain car/truck/SUV".

 

Exactly

 

My SC430 is the current "COMMUTER"....calling the SC beater would be disrespecting it....my GS is still in the shop getting the GTE swap finished...i might purchase a used kia optima as my daily beater or a 98 jeep cherokee sport...

can anyone give me any helpful input on the jeep or kia?

 

Ahh, it's a good thing to be relatively stock, no fear at -40 tempuratures
Wish I have a single... but V8 feels better than a 4 pot for a daily.

 

This is my daily beater, the DC Metro! Who knows how many miles, but I guess a lot since it breaks down all the damn time!

In the event that it is raining or too snowy to take the train, I drive my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 250K on the ODO!

The wife drives the GS as her daily, but as mentioned above, it is not a beater, but it a Lexus, so why not drive it!

The Range is for the weekends for me and the family!

 

The Honda Fit is my beater! Great gas mileage and can't complain too!

 

My beater or "rain car" is my '02 Jeep Liberty Sport and it's also used for trips to the snow.

 

I have had so many beaters, currently is 05 Sequoia:
