Yeahh that car's a perfect match for Nessie

My favorite will always be Alice's car, the Porsche 911 Turbo. *sigh*

haha yes That might really be a good match for Nesse, but not if she has her mother's view on cars she probably won't really like it then.

My favorite will always be the Aston Martin Vanquish. I loooooooove Aston Martin a lot.

Don't really know if this applies here, but Top Gear did a "best car for 17 year old's challenge", where the presenters were judged on a obsticle course judged by teenage girls.

Seeing as how the Cullens(namely Bella and Renesmee) are teens forever, I wonder how they'd judge the likes of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May(all middle aged married men, by the way) on that performance(run down various obsticles-a shed, 3 parked cars, shopping cars, a flower stand, among others with a handbrake turn judged by 3 teen girls).

If one wants to see what I'm talking about, watch Top Gear on BBC America on Monday Night if you get BBC America, or type in "Top Gear Challenge 17 year old" on You Tube(watch the 3rd part of the video).

I personally doubt that Jeremy, RIchard, or James would impress the likes of Bella, Alice, Rosalie or likely for sure, Renesmee-I can see them having a distaste for middle aged guys toying around in old economy cars trying to impress teenage girls for a TV show, let alone in real life.

Just a funny car-related thing that I wonder how you'd think that the Cullens would think of.

Completly unrelated to my last post, but related to actual Cullen cars. Here's a car that shares a name with a Twilight saga character:

Would Renesmee have anything to do with this vehicle?

Is it a hybrid? Haahaa.

It is kind of toy car looking to me, but I don't know much about engines and stuff and maybe this one has good power, etc.

It was liquified petrolium gas powered, and it was only a concept car. It was hoped that it would inspire later Mitsubishi SUVs, but was found to be too difficult to produce.

In addtion, it was named after the Loch Ness Monster-look at it's licence plate: http://www.motivemagazine.com/gallery/g ... pts/Nessie by Giugiaro (2005)

But would Renesmee drive or own one if it were ever produced when she grows up?

I am officially pathetic. I've been watching the Olympics, and I'm a big fan of Evan Lysacek.

When I read what he's buying himself after he gets home from Vancouver, my first thought was, "That's Edward Cullen's car!" I know, it's not a Vanquish, but it replaced the Vanquish, and if Edward bought an Aston Martin after 2007, it would be a DBS.

Yes, I know, I'm pathetic.

I don't remember if it's mentioned in Breaking Dawn and I have that book packed away, so I was wondering if someone could answer this for me: does Bella's 430 have a normal manual or a paddle operated gearbox?

I basically freak out when ever i see a silver volvo or a yellow porsche. My parents have no
idea what i'm freaking out about but I can't help it.
My dad told me the other day that his first car was a volvo.
I want my first car to be a shiny silver volvo!!
