It was my first band new car and it served me well, except I couldn't keep even heavy duty front shocks on it.

I believe I'd have threatened the Navy Chief with having his genitalia surgically removed and installed as a hood ornament, if he didn't make good on the Austin Healy repairs!

Trainman · 09-14-2008, 11:53 AM

1969 Datsun 510, with twin SU's and Nissan rally cam, bought used
1985 Toyota Corolla, new
1986 Ford Bronco II, new
1988 Mercury Tracer wagon, new, after getting married
1989 Ford Bronco II, used, for work
1996 Mercury Mystique, new
2002 Nissan Pathfinder, used, for work
2009 Subaru Forester, new, for work

Plus 2 Ford F250 leases, for work.

After getting married, my wife has had a 1988 Chevy Corsica, used and a 2004 Toyota Sienna, new. She also used the others on the list when I had business vehicles that i could use.

Fondest memory? The 510. Put 100,000 miles on it in 5 years, it was a blast. A bit of a sleeper too. Except for alloy wheels, no outward sign of any mods (ie no lowering or body kits). it was 4 doors, still with its original Borg-Warner automatic trannie label on the back but had a 4 speed. It was quick and fun to drive. Car cancer ate it up, plus being hit twice in a 7 day period, sort of put an end to her.

Rice & Gravy · 09-14-2008, 12:07 PM

Wow, according to the poll I've owned more Subarus than about 45% of you have owned cars of any make.

DOHC_Holiday · 09-14-2008, 01:46 PM

1981 Chevy Camaro
1982 Ford Mustang
1977 Ford Maverick
1979 Chevy Camaro, 1/8 mile racer
1984 Chevy Cavalier
1987 Jeep Cherokee
1993 Lincoln Town Car, 1st car I ever modded
1994 Toyota Supra (still have), single turbo, built everything
1994 Ford Ranger
2003 Toyota Tundra (still have)
1962 International Harvester Scout (still have), classic 4x4 restification project
2002 Nissan Sentra GXE, built suspension
1999 Subaru Forester (current DD)

Of the 13, it's the Maverick and the Supra that I remember most. I drove the Maverick my senior year in high school, then the whole time I was in the Army, and it was the first car I ever did any real work on. The Supra, on the other hand, is a 600 hp+ monster that will eat your face (and your wallet), so she is guaranteed a place in my fondest memories.
