Members JimiRules Posted July 17, 2008 Members Share Posted July 17, 2008 1. '87 Camaro. Got it right out of high school. It was a regular sport coupe when I got it, but I put the RS/Iroc ground effects on it along with a brand new paint job. Had the small 2.8 liter, but it was my first car and I had never driven one with a V8 at the time, so I wasn't complaining. Had it for 5 years and it started to nickel and dime me to death so I sold it.2. '99 Mustang. It had the 3.8 liter. Not super fast, but faster than the Camaro. I wanted a GT, but at the time I couldn't afford it. I had it for 4 years. It was a pretty good car. Never had any problems with it, but I got tired of having to drive it around in the snow, so I traded it in.3. '04 Jeep Liberty. This is my current vehicle. Gets me around in the snow, and I haven't had any problems with it. My only complaint is the gas mileage. Its terrible . Sometimes I have to pop the hood just to make sure they didn't accidentally put a Viper engine in there.4. '92 Camaro Z28. This is my toy. I always liked the third generation Camaros and when I sold my first one I told myself that I'd get a '91-'92 Z28 someday. It took me a few years to find a nice one that wasn't beat to hell, but a couple of years ago I did. It stays garaged during the winter and only sees the road in the spring and summer.I also really like the C4 Vettes. Maybe after my Jeep is paid off I'll start looking around for one of those!

Members Karma1 Posted July 17, 2008 Members Share Posted July 17, 2008 I've owned a lot of cars over the years, but my crown jewel was a 68 Plymouth GTX - teal w/ black vinyl top and Cragar S/S mag wheels. It had a 440 with a 4 speed, and was a total monster! Unfortunately, it only got about 6 miles per gallon, but I sure wish I still had it! Now I'm driving a Hyundai Santa Fe SUV. Not too exciting, but I enjoy it. It's fairly economical and great for hauling gear to gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Polaris20 Posted July 17, 2008 Members Share Posted July 17, 2008 Mine are mostly "sport" econoboxes except for the first two: '79 Mustang -- Absolute {censored}box supreme. The slowest thing on 4 wheels w/ the inline 6. '94 Nissan pickup -- 5-speed, an absolute blast to drive, I really miss it. '95 Saturn SC2 -- Not bad, handled pretty well '98 Cavelier Z24- another piece of {censored}. Looked nice, horribly unreliable '00 Civic Si - Lots of fun in this one too. Handled nice, had to rev the {censored} out of it for power, but great gas mileage '04 Sentra SE-R - good gas mileage, reliable, hate the {censored}ing automatic though (wife wanted the auto). Still have this one. Next one will be a Scion Xb with a 5-speed. My wife has the slushbox version, and it's a lot of fun to drive if you need something that can hall amps/kids/kiddy crap without having to or wanting to buy a {censored}ing minivan.

Members metalfanat1c Posted July 17, 2008 Members Share Posted July 17, 2008 I blew up my 87 IROC on the German Autobahn with less than 50k miles on it. It was NOT made for consistant Autobahn speeds. That was the last American car I've ever bought.Mine's got 115k on it and still going strong, although I've never so much as done a burnout in it. It had 80k on it when I bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'89 Honda CRX - totaled when somebody set it aflame. '89 Honda Civic Sedan - totaled when I hit a deer. '89 Honda Accord Coupe - this one actually lived to be traded in for a...'04 Acura RSX - my first brand new car car purchase. She has such low mileage and I drive so rarely these days that I hope to have her for a long time. As you can see, I'm a Honda fanboi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
