A 1994 Nissan Altima in perfect condition. I miss that car alot:-(. It was a sad day when I got a call from the insurance saying it was totalled. Wasn't my fault either, a guy in a 3-series BMW pulled out in front of me and I T-boned him.

First car was a '89 Camry. Didn't have any problems wit it.........till it stopped going in reverse.
Second car was a '99 Corrola. Man i miss that car. I had 17's, lowered, sport struts, strut bar, exhaust, tint, and system. Never once gave me a problem. Too bad it got totaled in March of this year
Acutally it was the same thing that happened to Aaron. Some guy ran a red light and it T-boned him.
Now driving an Acura CL

My last two cars before the 6-Speed CL were a 2001 CL-S and a 1991 Legend Coupe.
Before that I was a MOPAR guy.
Here are two of my older rides.
87 OMNI GLH-S Turbo and 88 Daytona Shelby-Z

My brother had a '86 Shelby-Z and his friend a '87 GLH-S. My mother later purchased a '88 Pacifica which was lemoned to get her a '89 Shelby-Z. I loved driving all of them as that use of a turbo worked and made sense.
Dumb me, I was offered the '89 Shelby for $5500 in '91 but for rediculous reasons I didn't buy.

Before these two cars I had an 86 Daytona Turbo-Z.
It was “Triple Black”.
Black exterior, Black interior and limo Black window tint.
I’ve got pictures around somewhere to scan, but they’re not handy right now.
Maybe I’ll look for them tomorrow.

1st car - 1993 Infiniti J30t
2nd car - 1999 BMW Z3
3rd car - 1999 Yukon
4th car - 1999 Acura 1.6 EL
5th car - 2001 Acura CL-S
6th car - 2003 Audi A4
In 1999 i really lost a lot of money...Z3 was too small/shit in snow...Yukon was too big, and was falling apart even though it was new...with all the money I lost, i was stuck with a Acura...untill i could afford my CL-S.
From all my cars, I miss the Infiniti the most...the memories of that car, and the shit that happened in it/around it...i want it back.
I have decided that I wont be selling anymore cars, from now on..i will be keeping my cars, and getting more...

I had a 86' Oldsmobile Delta 88 since highschool until now....
man...I remembered I put 230k miles on it... the tranny and engine blew for some strange reason...car is old....first it was my dads car back in 86' and then he passed on to me when I hit highschool....I've always wanted an Acura...so I waited....being patient is a virtue

well my first car was 88 Honda Accord LX-I with Eclipse System(i sold it with the car)
when my mom bought her Honda Odysee she was driving what is now my car.
So for 2 months I had to drive "the love machine"
85 3/4 ton Dodge conversion van with a queen size bed in the back it was like the rolling nookie machine. but i got ripped on about having to drive that to high school

the only thing the honda had was speed...which the A4 will have in a few months too
the car screams quality, and looks are subjective, but i think it looks better than my old CL..
I have 1000 miles on my A4 (its two weeks old
) and no problems whatsoever. When my CL had this many clicks, it was at the dealer getting the actuator fixed....then a rattle fixed.
