I had 2 '87 Toyota Cressida...i loved the car...which is why when i crashed the first one, the next day I went and got another one...Inline 6 RWD=Awesome!

This is a picture of the first one, my uncle gave it to me, I crashed it about 2 years after, the second one was darker blue, i cant find a picture of it.

After I sold the second Cressida I got a '94 Lexus ES300, everything was good with the car, had it for about 4 years, gave it to my sister when she got her license so I could get the A/C. (I want to put those wheels on the A/C but I gotta make sure they fit, pretty brand new only had them on for about 2 months took them off when I gave the car up)

this is a huge upgrade for me.

Since highschool (so for about 3 years) I drove around a 96' Camry V6LE. GREEN.

it smells. and it had about 216,000 miles on it.

I actually LIKE driving now.

99 Ford Escort *sold*93 Ford Probe SE *sold*97 Ford Probe GT *totaled*95 Ford Probe GT *sold* originally gonna be used as a parts car, but two months after I bought it, I spun out and hit the side of a bridge totaling the 97 so fixed what was wrong with this one and drove it. 00 Toyota Celica GTS *totaled* fell asleep at the wheel woke up as I was running off the road, got it back on the road only to fishtail and spin around and travel backwards at 80 into the embankment on the other side of the road. Hit so hard the car somersaulted and landed on the roof. God and my seatbelt were looking out for me cause I walked away without a scratch. Luckily nobody else was around me at the time. Insurance gave me enough to pay over a third of the Altima off so it all worked out. 08 Nissan Altima Coupe

Oh, btw, looks can be deceiving but I really do hate fords haha

After being stranded at home four winters in a row I had to get rid of the 350z and go back to a front wheel drive car. I really wish they still made the Celica though.

1990 Acura Integra- Sedan Red, lowered with rims, my baby. I got in an accident and after that it was never the same. It was so bad i would let go of the wheel and it would make right turns for me! !!! SOLD

before my coupe, i drove a 1993 Dodge Dakota. My dads truck/ spare car. Decided to tough it out and drive while i finished college and my dad would help out get me my coupe. Happy when my A/C came but since the accident I've been driving a

2006 Jeep Cherokee- Turned that in last week, insurance would only pay for 30 days, so I'm back to the dodge!

'02 Acura RSX (Premium, SportShift). First & Last time I MOD my car. It was fun but it got too expensive and sometimes it was PITA.

'99 Pontiac LEMON GrandAM/V6. Only had this for 3 years, should really just been 2 but I didn't like what was out there at that time.

1980 I bought my 1st car-1970 Ford Maverick 1984 I bought my first brand new car-1984 Chevy ElCamino, sold the Maverick 1986 Bought a used 1980 Mercury Zephyr for soon to be wife 1991 Bought brand new Chevy Lumina Euro for wife, traded in Zephyr 1998 Bought brand new Camry for wife, traded in Lumina After my dad passed I had his 1970 Ford P/U for about two years then sold it. 30 year old truck had only 80k miles on it!! 2000 Bought me a used Nissan Sentra 2004 Bought Brand new Highlander for wife, traded in Sentra, I took the Camry 2007 Bought me brand new 2008 Altima Coupe, kept Camry for now 17 yr old son.

Through all the cars I’ve gone through I still have the Camino which is now a quest to see how long I can keep it. All original except repaint (same factory colors) about 10 years ago. Original motor with just over 200k still starts every time I turn the key (remember that old technology? ) Far from new but hey, It's NEVER been wrecked, still in decent shape and it’s long been paid for!!

Starting at the age of 16 ... all the way to my ripe age of 26 (almost 27 don't remind me)!

1991 Ford Mustang LX (16)1995 Ford Probe GT (18)2002 Mercury Cougar XR (21)

... and last but most certainly not least!

2008 Nissan Altima Coupe (26)

I assume I will have the Altima for at least 5yrs though I intend to have it paid off in half. Then I'm not sure ... depending on my experience with this I might be looking towards Infiniti.

1979 Fiat 124 spyder I4 (all disc brakes, rear wheel drive, good handling car) still have in mexico.1997 Honda Accord V6 (very reliable and sold)

This is the first new car I buy, so am nervous on being able to pay for it!

What I dont like about this car is that there is more weight on the front (due to the engine obviously) but a BMW 325 is 50/50. Is there anything that can be done? Also I love the power (i have a V6) but for a front wheel drive is tricky when cornering. Am not planing to race it, but whenever i go to mexico i take advantage of the car am driving and i can totally tell that this one doesnt have that great handling. And am not comparing the handling with the cars ive owned, but with other fine cars that i have driven and are not mine.

1995 Pontiac Bonneville2005 Chevy Cobalt

Both cars were complete crap. Put thousands into the Bonneville just to keep it running. Finally gave up and leased a Cobalt. Working part time making minimum wage didnt leave me with too many options of cars. Now I got a real job and money to play with got my new coupe on order and already planning on ordering some toys for when it finally arrives.
