The title says it all post up some pics of your past rides.

This truck was my baby i loved it long time. It was my ride in High School and i thought i was cool s*** in it.





After i graduated i started working full time and had a hour commute to work and back over a mountain pass and the truck was getting tired 186k miles and lots of things breaking so i sold it and picked up this Cooper witch cut my commute time in half over the pass not to mention all the gas i saved. I had always had my truck and had never really experienced how a car handled before so this was a huge change. I would get off of work and midnight sometimes 2am and i would have the pass to myself needless to say i know it like the back of my hand. If you guys ever get a chance to drive a Cooper do it, its like a big a** go-kart.









After i had the cooper for about a year and a half i found myself out in parking lots whenever it rained or in the amazing back roads that are scattered throughout my town. Seriously if you guys from San Jose or Santa Cruz want some sweet roads and find yourself in the Morgan Hill area hit me up ill show you the spots. Anyways I would always be out e brake sliding my cooper i just loved to get it sideways. That is when i started learning about 240s drifting and the whole scene. I always joked about selling the cooper and buying a 240. Well one day i put up the cooper up on craigslist to see if it would get any bites, i had absolutely 0 expectations for it but i got a call and sold it the very next day and the day after that i bought my s13 and i havent looked back since.



So thats how i ended up with my 240, lets see some of your guys past rides.

How are 86's compared to 240's? Do you have a preference on them? I was looking at 86's when i bought my 240 but all the ones around here were thrashed.

I always thought that S130 looked pretty cool

Hype yo!

My first car was an 89 S13, never took pics of it

Then I bought a Chevy S10, which I still own



Then I bought another S13, had too.



And now I own a 49 Plymouth Special Deluxe

this thread is so nostalgic....

but you gotta describe a little bit how driving that POS before the 240 was, just like the OP did.....

nico is not an official car reviewer, but how else are you going to get a glance of how other cars really are? specially since we all share that 240 love......

1996 PLYMOUTH Neon lol. No pics (Who takes pic of their neon anyway?) It was a decent car I guess... The only thing I miss about it is filling my tank for $20 when gas prices were high.

Thank god the transmission gave out on that thing or I wouldnt be driving my 240
