1993 Saturn SL2, bought new in January 1993. Color was Blue/Black ( twin color to NBP). Drove it till it died in December 2004. I was T-boned in it in 2003. Drove it for 1 year with RH doors that wouldn't open, RH windows that didn't roll down, and wipers that refused to work. Settled a lawsuit in November 2004, received my 05 TL on 12-20-2004. Happy ever since...

Honda Civic DX (92')
Acura Integra GSR (95')
Acura Integra GSR (99')
Scion XB (06')
Almost wish I kept the Scion with gas prices the way they are. The little guy would get 30 MPG in the city consistently.

The new 07 Tundra looks great if you set it up right. BUT you must get the new V8 381hp. The loaded 4 door 4x4 does 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. I saw 2 completely diff tests. 6.2, and 6.3 seconds. I don't like the new dash on it. My 04 had a much nicer dash and gauge set-up. But overall the new Tundra kicks ASS

I traded in a 2004 TSX 6 sp w/Nav with 24K miles toward a 2007 TL-S with auto. The only problem I had with the TSX was the clutch master cylinder was replaced twice when it started clicking. The TSX replaced a 2001 Audi S4.

Then of course there is my weekend car.

1996 Isuzu Rodeo. You could say I'm happy with the upgrade.


As for the guy with the TL-S and the 'Vette......... that's my dream combo, colors and everything... Well done, sir!
