Past rides....................

[Natey]

I wish I had my very first car back. It was a '75 Porsche 914 with a 2.0 in it. It leaked water on my leg when it rained, so I got rid of it. I wish I would've kept it as a project because those little cars have a TON of inexpensive potential.

A Mid engined 150HP sub 2000lb Porsche that I bought for 1800 bucks.

I had one of those too. I had a 1973 2.0 914 it was mint and ran it forever. My sister wrecked it and got a 1972 with a 1.8 motor and put the 2.0 motor in it and ran for about 4yrs. My dad traded it in when I went to the air force. I wish he never did that. Oh well. A very well balanced car.

ah yes...i remember my first car. a hand-me-down from my aunt. it was an blue '83 datsun 200sx or 240sx...most likely a 200x. the reason i don't remember exactly was because it lasted me all but less than a month before the ecu died or some BS. garage kept for 13 yrs until i got it.

My 2000 Civic Coupe EX(yes,the black one that everybody has).Only for the reason that there is so many ******' mods out there for it.

 

[sidpro5]

my 91 Z28 305 tuned port (dont laugh at the 305 it twasnt stock)(wiggle)

Yeah, those 305's were underrated. I had an '87 Trans Am GTA with a H.O. 305, and with a few mods like headers and, um, "high flow cats", you could really make it run. Would've loved to have gotten inside that engine. But, sadly, a telephone pole took her away from me.

240hp is a joke for a car that big.

Not really, though the stock 140 was. The 300ft*lbs and gears made that car move. My friends Colony Park wagon will pull the front wheels with about the same power.

 

[Rickman]

I would have to say my first car. It was a '89 Toyota MR2. I totaled it.

Man I saw some fast little bastards like that but with body kits and 350 V8's in them. Normally I hate them but with the kit/motor/wheels etc they looked nice.
Plus they would hit 150MPH in a hurry.

98 VW GTI, had to sell it when I left for college. Faster than the stock P5 but I like both cars about teh same.

Yea, 300ft. lbs. of tq. will help!

The stock 5.0 had 140hp and 250 or 260 of torque. The cars were under 4000lbs. I really miss that car. So nice and comfy, would leave two beautiful 225mm wide tire marks for 100ft or more. Would get sideways on the 1-2 shift and the 2-3. Going 55mph if it was a little damp out and I could put it sideways by flooring it. (burnout) (boom03)

my 91 Z28 305 tuned port (dont laugh at the 305 it twasnt stock)(wiggle)

Looks like the 1LE package too....nice cars, a friend used to race one in SCCA IP class. Lots of fun!

My 91 240SX...sold it to buy the P5. If I could have applied the P5's monthly payment to the 240 (and had the time), it would've been awesome!(sssh)

 

[M_pro_5]

funny enough but i would want my 1983 volvo 244 turbo sedan. It was a monster.....

 

[Protephile]

1970 Chevelle--dark green coupe w/black vinyl top. Ugly color, but it was pretty fast.

 

[Hypnotized]

97 eclipse with a star performance turbo kit on it. The only reason I didnt is beacuse I bought a brand spankin new 01 Yamaha R6 instead which is faster then that car would have ever been,

 

[mp5jeff]

My 1968 Chrysler NYer, it would take anything on this board (in a straight line).

whatd it run in the 1/4?

 

[RaiderMS3]

I miss my 1977 VW Adventurewagen camper. 600 watt hidden stereo, 70K original miles, motor, paint, interior. I got it with 40K original miles, reconditioned it, showed it. Then I was commuting, and needed something to run the miles up on. Sold it to a collector. Wish I had it back...

 

[LaserBlueMSP]

i would have to say my 1990 VW Corrado. custom paint (pearl metalic red). 16'' tsws. erebuni kit. and a month after it all this was done. a girl pulled out infront of me wto make a left hand turn. and yea i was going through the intersection and tboned her at about 50 mph. twas a sad day. i miss that car

 

[Familia323]

My 67 Firebird.. It was my first car. I didn't know a whole lot about cars at the time and working on them. So I couldn't realize the potential it had. I should have kept it anyway.

Good question.
