It was a '99 ES300, then a couple of months later it was traded in for the '02 GS300 . I still missed the ES and then now Charley (charley240) made me really want an ES again .

1989 Toyota Corolla. One of the last carbs built. I think in 1990, they were fuel injected.

1977 Pontiac LeMans with a 135hp 4.9L V8. I turned the air cleaner cover upside down and it sounded so cool (also installed the requisite air shocks for the jacked up look) . All was good until a Mirage turbo with four people in it laid waste to me....

ahhh the good old days....

'72 Fiat 128 sedan. Rusted beyond belief, and wouldn't pass PA safety inspection. But it sure was fun to drive.

1983 Honda Prelude 5-Speed. Purchased in 1990. Stolen off the streets of Jamaica Estates, NY in 1993 within sight of my apartment (I got such an awesome parking spot that day). RIP.
