A 94 pontiac bonneville, but at least it was the SSEi, supercharged and intercooled. I bought if with 123,000 miles and drove that piece of sheite till I could get what I wanted...it was nice but a money pit, now my cousin still drives it and has put nothing into it, figures, I gave it to his dad with 186,000 miles on it.

for a couple months I bought my dads 71 chevelle SS, it said 454 LS6, but it was a clone with a 396 and an automatic, best thing about it was the body and paint job...absolutely cherry...black/white stripes/black interior...couldn't afford it and my brother bought it

before that, (before I had to claim bankruptcy on my business) I had a 99 Trans Am, 6sp, black t-tops...a lot of fun, but just a crappy built to..I'm glad it got repo'd

99 Olds Siluette...first with a vcr in it
98 Buick LeSabre Limited
96 grand am

85 olds toronado...sweet

77 plymouth grand fury

64 chevy II, 3 on the tree, straight six

first ride.. `1990 mercedes benz 560sec...MISS that car. 5.6L v8 with some type of supercharger my dad installed. the only thing i dont miss is the handling. fast, but a littttle scary going fast. but amazing car..it was black with tan interior and chrome mercedes rims. yum just sits in the driveway now

then...stole mommys lexus rx330 black on grey interior..i loved that car, comfy and comvenient just slow and an SUV! etc.

and now the 2006 2.0t a4..red on black. MY car..my first baby i dont think i couldve bought a better car..i truly love it. just excited to do all the work on it..its a beauty.

i got lucky today. since i just graduated my dads letting me take the aston for the day. db9 status. now THAT is a fun car to drive..but only on special occasions haha.

Never owned but got to drive an Elise for a night + gas. Could'nt compare to anything ive ever driven or rode in. This lil car would put you back in your seat like you hit nos at 6,000rpm!!!

You dont get much room in the car and you enter it like a race car (cause that's basicaly what it is) but it is fun watching big people get in and out. I found it easiest to just roll out the car and im 6" 140lbs. Not sure why they put a radio in the car you cant hear it over the screaming engine behind your head.

I have nothing against BMW at all, there cars are the **** and incredibly reliable.

LOL I thought BMWs were notoriously unreliable. Consumer reports always give most BMWS an unsatisfactory reliability rating.
