Best and Worst Cars youve owned

[explorer2 10+ year member]

Ive had tons of cars but my favorites are in no particular order

1987 BMW M3-bought it new and drove the shit out of it, very fun car with expensive tickets

1991/1993 eddie bauer explorers- these things took massive beatings and were fun in the snow and extremely reliable and I couldnt get a ticket in them

1969 IH Scout- fun truck till it rusted away, you could watch the gas guage go down

1974 Lincoln mk3(?)- with the 460, my fast comfortable grandma car

1996 lincoln town car- suprisingly fast with good gas mileage, floated down the highway.

Hopefully I can add my new tl to this list.

oh yeah by the way mine was a grey market m3(no governor). i got it off of a air force captain that brought it from germany in 91. i got it in 92. it will get you tickets and a little costly on insurance because of that dang m symbol

Probably the best car I have owned, was very fast and handled like a dream. The new ones are much better but they arent the same. I sold it to a friend of mine back in 91 or 92 and he used it as a dd up until a few years ago, he still drives it alot and with a few hundred thousand miles on it it still drives great. Not the cheapest car to insure or maintain but well worth it. That car screamed on twisty, hilly backroads.

I would have to say my favorite was an 1990 Audi 100 followed by a 92 Tbird SC.

Worst car was a 94 geo tracker, **** that car was cold as shit in the winter and super gay looking now that I think about it in all of its fire engine red greatness.

Worst car: 1995 Pontiac Grand Am SE 5 spd. (no tach FTL!)

Best car: 2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS (**** deer)

Current car: Subaru Impreza 2.5i, and loving the hell out of it and it is user friendly when it comes to audio. Freaking easy to work on.

I had to do a report about rotary engines. I think they're really cool. Lots of power, little space. If only it were more fuel efficient, it would be more popular. But because there are so few moving parts, theyre very reliable.

Not to mention the 100k Carbon lock up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Someone I knew had one lock up on him. They are expensive to rebuild.

You 7 owners would drool, we have an exclusive RX-7 shop out in the middle of nowhere, 2 miles from where I live. They just moved in 2 months ago, but the parking lot is filled with every generation RX-7, some of the 3rd gen stuff in MINT condition, and a first gen with a full race scheme and functional looking body/wing. None of that ricer Isht there.

All in all, the ist gen non-turbo's weren't even as fast as my 91 240SX non-turbo was, but still fun as hell.

First car was an '85 Grand Prix. 3.8 liter turbo out of a Grand National, snot green, white vinyl roof, friggin ugly! Caught fire in my driveway less than a year after I bought it.

Second was an '88 Firebird. 2.8 liter v6 built to 300HP. Fast, comfortable, noisy, unreliable.

Third was a '94 Acura Integra, only had it for 2 weeks as the dealership sold it to me illegaly, they didn't have the SALVAGE TITLE in their possession!

Fourth was a '96 Integra. Great car.

Fifth was a 2001 Galant. POS

Now I have my '05 Frontier, no problems yet.

Best car - Toss up between my 240sx (91) and my Acura Legend coupe (90). Im not sure which one I like more. The legend is such a unique car, 2.6L v6, manual ******, sporty suspension... but the 240 is a 240. RWD pwnage, 5 speed, so much potential..

Worst car - My 240sx. The motor is toast (my fault, ignored timing chain) at 114k, where most 240s go long past 250k before passing away. Also, the struts are ghey and blown... and it looked quite embarassing for a while.

Worst: 76 Datsun 710 station wagon, exwife had this when we got together lol

1996 chevy ext. cab Z-71:very powerful/reliable...lots of room for boom..10miles to the gallon

2003 trailblazer: drives and performs very well..comfortable..lots of space

 

[KriptiK 10+ year member]

worst: 1997 jetta...POS broke something every month (brakes, power windows, wheel bearing, door locks, ac, alignment, sunroof, etc) all within

best: 2000 ford focus hatchback...well not really the best but the most fun to drive
