Re: Car's I've Owned
1967 Merc Montclair (410-4bbl huge torque with a mafia-sized trunk!)
1973 Honda 750-4 (yeah...including the 'sickles....I didn't own anything else when I had this baby! - 13,000 miles in 4 months)
1976 VW Rabbit
1976.5 Honda Gold Wing LTD - American bi-centennial version
1970 Chev BelAir....hey! It had two doors! The only car I ever made money on - bought it for $50, drove it for 2 1/2 years/75,000 miles and sold it for $125!!!!
1972 Datsun 240Z.....great and fun car - still miss it!
1983 Honda 1100F - crotch rocket, great torque.....roll on the throttle in top gear at highway speed on damp pavement and feel the rear tire breaking loose....careful....
1977 GMC - 3-on-the-tree, 6 cyl, strictly utilitarian work truck
1986 Fiero SE (v-6)....ex's car....remarkably trouble-free except for the electronic module in the distributor cap that kept burning out....bitch to change the front spark plugs.
1988 Shelby Daytona - unfortunately a lemon....traded it in with about 20,000 miles (left me on the road 3x in this short period despite easy hwy miles) on a trouble-free Miata.
1990 Miata - beat the tar out of this one like no other (for 13.5 years) ... and it took it.....simply amazing and bullet-proof car! Wish I had bought A/C.....
1991 Miata
1988 Kawasaki GPz 750 - another crotch rocket
2001 Dodge Dakota R/T - 360 c.i., lowered, LSD, etc. - one fun, fun truck that did not feel like a truck ... best motorsports memory of passing a 911 on a road course!
2003 Honda S2000 (hard to believe I've had this for over 5 years....still very much enjoy this car).
1993 Toyota T-100 with almost a half million kilometers. Will this thing ever die? Trucks are so handy for moving "stuff" around.....compared to an S2k.
Next? Maybe a motorcycle....sport touring/Honda VFR800 or something .... and I sure love driving that Exige (I could easily dump the S2000 for this one)!

1980 RX-7
1984 Civic S
2000 M coupe
1995 M3

Re: Car's I've Owned
VW 1500 Sedan ... flipped at Hockenheim Ring
VW 1500s Sedan ... flipped into an Irrigation channel in England
BMW 1802 ... finally convinced my folks to get me a car that handled a bit better! Mod ... small leather racing steering wheel. Teenage boy survives the Autobahns ... barely.
BMW 2002 ... great car! First AX Trophy, Santa Barbara City College
VW Rabbit surprisingly good ... 2nd AX Trophy, SBCC
1980 BMW "320i" ... Called the AC, "Reverse Turbo" wtf ... 1800 cc cream puff engine. Mod ... wheels and tires that were too short ... FAILED to understand the Plus 1 Concept.
Honda Civic Wagon ... great hauler!
Honda Prelude ... Nice!
