My first was a Caprice Classic wagon with third row seating. I could fit 10 people in that thing comfortably.


My favorite is my Dodge Durango, it's gotten me through some shit.

My dad owned one like that but it was Purple.. he named it the purple pig.. that thing was smooth and a awesome cross country ride.. Moved to CT in that from CO..

I've only purchased one car so far, I like it a lot.

2005 35th ann ed. 350z, better known as "the z". Shes not the fastest thing, but shes pretty quick. My favorite part is when it rains I drift the hell out of this car.

i just so happened to give me mom's a ride to the nissan dealer when she was picking up her new car a few years ago, and in the show room they had a 370 z convertible.. of course i got in it and was checking it out.. damn, i couldn't even own that car as i wasn't in a very comfortable driving position as the roll hoop thingy behind the drivers seat wouldn't let me put the seats back far enough.. :(

Yeah, they are small and light. The 370z shits all over my car in terms of performance also. My car, being the 35ann ed comes with a slight engine upgrade, but the 370 has 25hp and -250lbs on my Z. Both the 350s and 370 are 2 seaters, so you don't get a lot, but I can attest to being able to fit 3 chicks on top of each other in the passenger seat ;).
Trunk room... there is none. I can fit 2 golf bags or my hockey bag in the trunk, that's it.

Few key notes: mines a 6s manual, with brembo brakes and some nice wheels and tires for tracking.
Performance wise, I've tracked my car up to 156mph, as well as 1/4mile in 13.7. I've got ~330hp and 315ft/lb to the wheels. Also, as mentioned, I like to take my car drifting, and it is very good at doing it.

1st - 81 VW rabbit diesel 2 dr (great car, upgraded to A Scirocco)
2nd - 83 VW Scirocco (loved that car, when it ran good about 50% of the time, it ran really good :) )

81 Buick regal presidential. probly one of my favorites. pump the gas twice hit the key, fired up every time.

76 nova again, super reliable car. was ugly as sin, got pulled over everyday wiht it, it just stuck out like a sore thumb, baby shit gold color. my buddys n I were tired of getting pulled over, bought 24 cans of flat black spray paint from walmart (takes 14 cans to cover a nova by the way)


had a 73 jeep commando that was bad ass, 4x4 304 v8 3 spd on the floor, kinda like a old international scout. wicked fun to drive.


now I have a pair of converse sneakers.... super reliable, great gas mileage, not the fastest things on the planet, but the black n red color scheme makes em look like they doin a 100 standing still....

Still have the same car, 2001 hyundai tiburon. I did some cheap light work to it to get rid of the lag in the lower rpm, CAI, new headers, full exhaust (not obnoxious loud at all, most people get in and ask me if its a v6 lol). Shes pretty quick now and still turns some heads with a dented hood which is always cool :). Just a fun light 5 speed four banger, absolute shit in snow though, no matter how you drive and what tires it has ><

My first car, a sack of shit. Still drive the sack of shit.
Too funny, we've all been there at some point. I have an 05' Chevy w/only 56K on it that's a fucking lemon.

In fact, the POS is in the shop as I type...heater went out. I've had to replace tie rod ends on this vehicle, steering shaft, a complete re-build on all 4 brakes, CD player, the list goes on. Every time a part breaks, I have a better aftermarket installed.
