Cars you have

[Duke]

Well, my first car was a 1967 Pontiac LeMans convertible. Like a GTO but smaller engine and taller gearing (thanks a lot, sis). In fact I still have it - 268,000 miles.

My next car was an '80 Supra which I got in '90 or so. Torquey as heck with that I6 in it. Fun to drive but the back was skitty, and the engineering sucked. Sold for $500 US with 270,000 on it.

My first new car was a '92 Dodge Caravan, bought one month before the birth of my first daughter. Still have that but it is only used for trips and hauling. It will never die, which means all future car purchases can be biased toward the fun side.

I bought the first Neon new in '95. Automatic trans. I missed the manual more than I thought I would so when I found a Neon ACR (factory racing package) I bought it and gave the first one to my wife, who already loved it. The ATX car was converted to a 2.4 l Stratus engine in 2001.

Bought the '95 Neon ACR in 1999. Did a few power mods, and I'm currently driving the wheels off of it. Looking to get involved in autocrossing (gymkhana) when I get the chance.

Should be moved to the Auto forum.

My first car was... never. It'll probably be a '92 Ford Ranger, dag nabbit!

I've got a Vauxhall Astra Sport. 1800cc engine, around 135hp. Compared to a lot of cars on British roads, it's pretty powerful and beats a lot off the line. Considering I'm only 22, it's a pretty good car to be driving, and looks pretty cool too. Unfortunately, the closest I can get to it in GT3 is the Vauxhall/Opel Astra Touring Car, which is much faster than my Astra!
