my last car before suby was in 1996...have had nothing but 90hp masterpieces ever since, only 3 of them.
the car was a well beaten monte carlo SS.Black as the ace of spades. no stickers. Beaten is prerequisite to hacking tranny crossmember for the full hooker dual headers and 350 with nearly closed chambered heads..the 'one off' cam handed to me....to go along with the 2.73 LSD, sipping through a holley.
6000 rpm == 165 swaying mph. The speedo was hilarious. it had the older ss 115mph, but kept going all the way around...with no place to peg out to.
..and I did it just once...and sold it.
the back ends of those had a small tail fin, that one trip cracked both ends symmetrically....via wind only.:eek:
the genius of 3 main boxers has me sold more than ever.

1985 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, had the 4.1 slug in it
1992 Pontic Firebird with a beastly 305 tbi, slush box, and 2.73 rear gears
1995 Vw Passat Vr6 5speed, this thing was awsome, even though it leaked from everywhere and had 230k on it
1987 Chevy Camaro IROC 350 5 speed, was a project car, it was junk
1998 VW Jetta 2.0 5speed, motor went on the third day I had the car, then where the subframe mounts to the car rotted out, scrapped it
2001 Dodge Dakota sport, 3.9 5 speed, best car ever, still have it, will get a viper motor when its posistion as daily driver is filled
I also bought a 2001 Hyundai Accent 1.5 5speed for $1, Mass wouldnt let me register because it had a salvage title and they came up with a ton of bs. :unamused:

Don't ever buy one though! steel pushrod motor only holds about 10lbs of boost and the ECU is impossible to crack.
1996 Buick Century..... Got 30 mpg on the highway, comfy seats that were like sitting on a couch and a suspension setup with Slinkys. :lol:

Lets see...
For most of highschool I had a 1988 F-150. 302 V8, 5 speed, 4x4 with a swapped in tape deck (it came with an AM only radio!) so I could use the cool kid cassette adapter on my velcro'd to the dash discman:
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a370/03NHSilvy/wheeling/F150.jpg
Right before I graduated I bought a 1998 Jimmy. SLT trim so it had leather and all the nice stuff, but it was a POS.:
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a370/03NHSilvy/wheeling/Jimmy-001-2.jpg
I somehow didn't learn my lesson with GM and bought a 2003 Silverado next. It had the 4.8 V8 with an automatic and 4WD. With the intake, exhaust and programmer it was pretty entertaining to drive, as long as all you had to do was accelerate in a straight line, or do burnouts (NO traction with that thing).

77 buick skylark-died, stoopid v6
79 ford mustang coupe-totalled by motorcycle
79 ford mustang hatch-wrecked
86 ford mustang-traded on mitsubishi
76 chevy 1500-beat to death and sold
74 olds cutlass supreme-sold to move to ga

01 mercury sable-left with ex
02 dodge durango-traded on lgt
01 vw jetta-traded on lgt
06 subaru lgt-traded on jeep
i never knew i owned so many cars...
after leggy i bought an...
06 dodge dakota-traded on ram to pull camper better-thats what i tell myself
03 riverside camper-sitting in the back yard
07 dodge ram 1500.
needless to say, the lgt went to the 06 jeep grand cherokee limited with a hemi. couldnt see the baby seat and my driving habits with that car going together well. i want to get an older one as a work driver sometime.
Started with one of these: 1986 Ford Escort EXP...hated it!
http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/3/280/2941/25698970012_large.jpg
Then I got a 1986 Firebird
Then I got a 1985 Trans Am (which I still miss...it had Recaro's)
http://www.v-8.fr/pontiac/00152-2.jpg
Then I got a 1998 Honda Civic HX
Traded the HX for a 1999 Civic EX which I spent WAYYYY too much money on performance parts, lowering it and put a body kit on it which meant that I couldn't drive it during the winter so I got this as my winter beater:
1986 Toyota MR2 (absolutely loved this car and would buy another on in a heartbeat)
http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/3668/4781/9169890001_large.jpg
Traded the Civic in for my 02 WRX...ran a stage 4 on it for a while and taded it for a Nissan 350Z Track Edition
http://www.carrosnitrados.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/nissan.jpg
Mine was silver though.
The MR2 died on me (gas tank rotted out of it) so I need a new winter beater. Got a 1996 Civic DX hatchback
Then I traded both the 350Z and my Civic hatchback for 06 STi
Oh yeah, and in all that time, I've had 2 2000 Yamaha R6's and now have a 2002 Ducati 996 (yellow)

1993 Dodge Caravan -- I was wicked hot driving to the beach in this thing. My parents still have it and it's even more ghetto now... the passenger door is screwed shut because it won't latch, the windows won't roll down and you can't open up the sliding door. Plus, during a wind storm (which is frequent where they live in Texas) a piece of their barn snapped off and flew into the windshield. It's legal in Texas to drive with a broken windshield.
http://robber.fekete.us/about/Cars/grandam00001.jpg
1990 Pontiac Grand Am -- I was wicked hot in this one, too.
http://www.cardata.com/spoilers/images/CD_Spoilers/Mercury_Tracer_11L2.jpg
1997 Mercury Tracer -- I actually liked this car until I got rear ended in it.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/46/1991-Toyota-Camry-DX.jpg/800px-1991-Toyota-Camry-DX.jpg
1991 Toyota Camry -- This car was okay, too until I got rear ended in it.
http://www.edmunds.com/pictures/VEHICLE/1996/Pontiac/18034/1996.pontiac.grandam.9029-300x189.jpg
1996 Pontiac Grand Am -- given to me by my uncle after I was rear ended. The heater didn't work and I got a ticket 2 days after my birthday because black smoke would occasionally blow out the back. I also got frost bite from driving it around in winter.
http://images.intellichoice.com/used/97420SentGLE%5B%5D%5D%5B%5B%5D%5D4552.gif
1997 Nissan Sentra GXE -- I got this one after Dan decided the Pontiac wasn't safe anymore. I couldn't go with him to pick the car up so I told him if it was a good deal just to buy it and I'd see it later. He did. I ended up loving this little car (and still miss it!) but I knew it wasn't going to pass inspection again. We bought the thing for $1600, dumped less than $1500 into it the 2 years I owned it and got $1500 for a trade-in. I'd say I got my moneys worth, Dan found me a really good deal! :D

My car before this was a 1997 Chevy Monte Carlo. I literally drove it into the ground. 120,000 miles which really isn't much considering. Engine and drive train still ran perfect. I did oil changes every 3k religiously and from 75k miles I used that high milage stuff, always K&N oil filters. I swore I'd keep it till the day I could no longer drive it. Last January I bought 4 new tires for it, then the transmission blew in March. New transmission, then in April it needed brakes all around. Then in August I tried to get it inspected. One time when it was towed, the tow driver hooked the rear end in the wrong spot and severly bent some bars. So it was going to cost $3000 to inspect a car worth about $1000.......HELLO SUBARU!!!!! Blessing in disquise.

I drove a 2004 Chevy Impala LS. Bought Brand new.. had 36 Miles on it when I drove it off the lot.. 4 and a Half years later I traded it in with over 125,000 miles on it. I miss the car.. Still ran like new.. Oil changes every 3-5k miles. Had a brake job done once, at 105k miles, New set of Tires at 80k Miles. Never had any issues with it.. Still had 32+ MPG Hwy when I traded it in last march. Had Deep tinted windows 14% on it all around. Slightly Illegal in CT, but I didnt care lol.. Bought my 08 Subaru Impreza 2.5I Hatchback 5spd.. Love the car.. Had it tinted to 14% all the way around as well, but some rookie cop pulled me over for it.. had to take the tints off.. Haven't re-done them yet.

yeah... it took WAY too long... and even when I went 'stage 2' on the blower, it still made only roughly 200wtq ... yay honda! .... but revving out to nearly 9k was pretty fun, and it was a nimble car
