What Kind of Cars Have You Owned
 

I'm one of those guys who is always swapping one car for another. At least, I used to be. As of late I have stopped doing so and decided to keep my car as long as possible. Ironically my current car, 90 LS400, is by far my favorite. But here's what I've owned:

1977 Buick Century 231 c.i.d. V6 What a piece of crap
1969 Pontiac Firebird 455 c.i.d. TH400 Auto
1990 Camaro RS 305 c.i.d. 5 Speed Manual
1996 Camaro SS 350 c.i.d. 6 Speed Manual
1990 Jeep Cherokee 4.0 Straight Six (this car was fun to thrash on)
1995 Camaro Z28 converted to a SS Clone 350 c.i.d. 6 Speed Manual
1996 Honda Shadow VLX 600 cc, fun but too small
2004 Honda Shadow ACE 750 cc, also fun, but I needed a car
1990 Lexus LS400

It's strange that my car was built 2 years before I started high school- and I GRADUATED 15 years ago!! It's a testament to the quality of this car. I have driven vehicles less than 5 years old that run rougher and have more road noise than mine.
