    Jeez... I've been driving probably longer than most of you put together, and I've only owned 5 cars.
    (When I first started driving I only got to 'borrow' my father's car or my sister's car.... didn't get my own til later.)

    '67 Plymouth Valiant (bought w/50,000 miles on it.)
    '80 Renault LeCar (First car bought 'new'. What a piece of LeCrap)
    '85 Honda Accord (loved it)
    '93 Nissan Altima (didn't love it)
    '98 Subaru Impreza (love it - just hit 110,000 miles yesterday)
    Of all the things in life I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

    Didn't you have an Explorer too?

    Remember riding down I-94 in the beetle? We were in the left lane going about 45 during the rain. Everyone was beeping and yelling at us. No heat in the car.

    Default Fiero....

    The car has more room than a Corvette or Firebird. I am stuck in a short mans world, I do the best I can to have as much fun as I can. As a kid I raced Go-karts and even then they were a tight fit for a kid who was taller than most adults.

    Sue, the Ghia was a version of Army Green, not too pretty, but a lot of fun to drive.

    Hey Reap - how many cars do you have? and, where do you keep all these buggys? I guess you could be considered the Jay Leno of Motown Sports.

    I don't remember. Too numerous to list. All have been American cars, with the excetion of two Volkswagen Beetles.

    The best car I ever owned is the Pontiac I have now. The worst was the Dodge I had just prior to the Pontiac.

    In all:

    Nine Fords
    Two Chevys
    Two Plymouths
    Three Dodges
    Two Volkswagens
    Two Pontiacs

    My first car was a 1936 Ford. My latest is a 2000 Pontiac.
    I had a 1950 Ford (Flathead V8, Cleveland Engine) that was very good too.

    I have thought this over very long and I conclude that there is no reason whatsover for war. It brings suffering, hardship and death, over and over again. War is the antithesis of Love. It, of all things, is most unreasonable. - B. Ringo.

    1. 1973 Plymouth Scamp (Plymouth's version of the Dodge Dart) - Car was named "The GoldenRod."

    2. 1973 Plymouth Scamp - "The GoldenRod II" - Car was in mint condition when I sold it to a collector in Ohio. The car has since won various prizes at several Mopar shows.

    3. 1989 Chevy Cavalier - Bought new.

    4. 2001 Chevy Cavalier - Bought new.

    Default Eastside...

    down to seven now...promised my wife I would sell four to make room for the Porsche, one down so far. I just sold my Ma's house, so they are all, except for my landcruiser, at my house (city to remain a secret) for now. Anybody looking for a Fiero or VW, let me know.
