    Default All your rides are belong to us

    So, what all rides have you owned from the beginning to current? Couldn't find a similar thread searching so if it's been done before, oh well...

    I'll begin...

    First Car:
    Oldsmobile Delta 88 - This was a great car for a first car. Very slow, big, bulky and comfy Smile. It was nice to learn in that car because i know to take turns wide to avoid curbing my tires and such. It ended up being a gift from my grandfather (thanks). Everyone loved that car, we called it "the boat" since it was so huge. I remember having the entire back seat packed with junk (computers, bycicle, skates, books, etc...) and having 3 people in the front seat. Those were the days...

    Second:
    1985 Bmw 325e - This was my first 5 speed car and I loved it. It also was pretty slow but quite a bit faster than the Delta... I really enjoyed the rear wheel drive experience with that car. The beamer always ran but not always well. Almost the whole time i had the car it had a problem with wanting to die while sitting at traffic lights. I would have to keep on the gas to keep it from clunking out. We never figured out what the problem was... I ended up selling the car to a mechanic for $500 while i was on a car lot buying an integra...

    Third:
    1998 Integra LS 4 door- I only owned this car for less than 24 hours. I got it from a crappy little dealership that screwed me on the financing. Once I realized how bad they tried to screw me I gave them the car back and went on my way. Luckily they hadn't noticed yet that I never handed over the $1000 down payment.

    Fourth:
    1998 Integra GSR 2 door coupe - At the time this was the exact car that I wanted. I took the weekend finding it, not owning a car, trying to be patient. I got it for a decent price and it was in excelent condition. I owned it for 2 years and did a LOT mods to it. In 2 years i put 47k miles on it. Only problem i ever had with it was the radiator going out which is a known problem with integras, and most cars for that matter... The only reason that I sold the Integra was that I had the opportunity to buy my dream car Smile.

    Fifth/Current:
    2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STi - I just bought this car a little over a month ago. I have wanted this car ever since it came over to the united states. I've done months and months of research to find out which car would be the best for me in all aspects and this one beat out all the others. Especially for the price! In the month that I have had it I'm still not used to all of it's wonderful features, crazy speed, handling and acceleration, 4 doors, and everything else. I've also found a great local online community to share my passion for Import automobiles with. WRXAtlanta.com has been awesome. In the few weeks that I've been on the site, I'm now photographing and DJ'ing the events and know a few really great people. I would recommend this car to anyone....

    First:
    1981 BMW 3 series. Good running car. Looked horrible. 5 speed, sucked learning on because reverse is where first should be.

    Second:
    1984 Chevy Blazer. Shitty transmissions. I had it slammed on some chrome 15 x 8 hammers. 3 tens, tons of bass.

    Third:
    1992 Hyundai Scoup. Shitty car. Shitty looks. Shitty transmission. Horrible in every way.

    Fourth:
    1998 Honda Civic. Ran great. Sold it in 04. Turned it into a show car. bags, shaved everything, body kit, 19s, etc, etc.

    Fifth:
    2005 Chrysler 300 Signature Series. My favorite car by far that i've owned. 22s, plush interior. Love it.
    05 Chrysler 300 - Kitted on 22s
    06 Quad Cab Dodge Ram 1500

    Great idea for a thread. Really got me thinking.

    (1) 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint, 260 V8, 2 speed auto, partial resto, got wrecked
    (2) 1969 Buick Skylark GS350, wrecked it
    (3) 1973 Ford Pinto hatchback, drove it into the ground
    (4) 1986 Mercury Lynx XR3, like an Escort GT, bought new, sold it to buy....
    (5) 1990 Ford Mustang LX 5.0, factory special order, sold it to buy.....
    (6) 1994 Dodge Intrepid, nice car but fell apart quickly, sold it to buy.....
    (7) 1996 Nissan Maxima GXE, nice but boring, sold it to buy.....
    (8) 1997 Infiniti QX4, great SUV but slow as shit, leased
    (9) 2000 Saab 9-5, best car I've ever owned (leased)
    (10) 2004 GMC Sierra, current ride

    how old are you?

    BretFraz?

    okay so for me, pretty simple

    1. 1992 Honda Accord, pretty good first car, nice feeling, shitty power, not a bad tranny, but auto, shifts well for old car, compared to my dads last car
    2. Not yet, but either a 99.5 Jetta, a 3-series, anything manual
    3. STi, lol

    so 2 and 3 are my "plans"

    4. 95 honda civic, turbo sohc - sold, now owned by competition clutches of atlanta
    5. 98 acura cl, traded for 99 f150, only owned for 3 months, too much of a girl car for me
