A '68 Dodge Coronet. Slant six and 3 spd on the column. Car was side swipped by a truck before I bought it which is how I was able to afford it. Never fixed the dents which went from front to rear bumper. Didn't know how to drive stick till I took it out for a 2 hr drive. For about 1 hr of that drive I was stuck at a light on a hill.

1990 Acura Legend.

A much better car in terms of build quality and steering response than the new TSX.
