In no particular order, here's what I figure:
Misha: A Harley-Davidson. It just seems to fit. And Harleys are known for their distinctive noise, after all.
Hanako: Also a motorcycle, but something more along the lines of a Kawasaki. A crotch-rocket, in other words. And of course, she'd wear the kind of helmet that completely conceals the face.
Shizune: A BMW Z4 roadster, or something similarly powerful, expensive, and well-engineered.
Emi: A Mazda Miata.
Rin: A VW Beetle, either old or new. Which she would be constantly forgetting to maintain.
Kenji: A Volvo station wagon, festooned with political bumper stickers.
Lilly: Something comfortable and reliable, but not showy or flashy. Maybe a Mercedes or Lexus.
Hisao: Actually, I could see Hisao relying on public transport or his own two feet for the rest of his life.
Mutou: A beat-up, but still well-maintained, old Toyota Corolla hatchback.
Miki: Something fast and expensive. Corvette or somesuch. Or a [shimmie=3579]Lamborghini Miura[/shimmie].
Meiko: Well, she's just this side of a soccer mom, so - minivan.
So the next time I see an Aston Martin tearing down the highway with a suited, blonde female driver, toting an MP5, I'd know to duck out of the wa- oh, wait. Sorry; wrong media source.

Still, it probably wouldn't have been above Akira to possess an Aston Martin or some other 'super-car' once she's well up on the promotion ladder .... I think (?)
Akira wasn't on my list for the simple reason that she's already established as owning a Lancer Evo.
Also, on the subject of disabled drivers, something I should have linked to in my previous post.

Ah, I stand corrected. Must have slipped my mind. Hrmph - the minor details that slip through the cracks of memory.

...when you go to the most isolated, spacious hill you can find and give the world a hug, like Rin. Feels real good, especially when it's clear and dark :)

When you can lie awake at night, trying to go to sleep, and still hear Caged Heart somewhere in the back of your mind.

When the sub-par movie 'Paul Blart: Mall Cop' reminds you of a certain narcoleptic from 3-3...

Calling Paul Blart: Mall Cop sub-par is an insult to par.

That's definitely true. It was like a poor man's Observe and Report without any of the actual comedy. More importantly though, what in that awful movie could possibly remind you of Suzu? :lol:

He has a similar condition that I can't remember the name of. You would know if you watched the movie...

I don't recall any mention of him having narcolepsy. Then again it was such an awful movie I think I purposely shut most of it out. :lol:

I thought it was hypoglycemia which made him pass out during exercise. Not quite the same as narcolepsy.

But hell if I'm ever going to check. When did I even watch that affront to cinema?

I acknowledge it as a bad movie, but it's not unbearable.

Whatever it is, it's just an ongoing fat joke in practice. "HAHA, HE HAS TO STUFF HIS FACE ALL THE TIME, ISN'T IT FUNNY!" - Suuure, movie. Hilarious.

Ugh.

To the thread: You watch a Persian get his arms hacked off and think "Rin in a past life". (Guess who saw the 300 sequel? :D)
