It's quite interesting to see what people drove before, tells a lot of where a person is in life imo.
My first car was a 93' 200sx S13 with a long, long mod list. Loved it, hated it, never anything in between. Kept it for almost five years. My next car was also an S13, completely stock and just a fun daily driver. After that I wanted something more refined so I got myself a '92 325 E36. It was horrible, worst car I' ve ever owned hands down. Everything that can break, broke.. Sold it after a few months. Next up was a '95 SAAB 900 Turbo with Viggen aero package with some minor mods, quite fun to be honest but was too harsh for a daily driver since I still had my S13. So I sold it and bought a' 01 SAAB 9-3 instead. Completely stock but comfortable. Not very amusing in any way and at this time the Nissan was struggling I wanted something faster. Which leads me into my '04 STI, awesome car but after a year I was fed up with the whole tuning-world, loud exhausts and crappy interiors.. I sold both the S13 and the STI and bought an 08 Audi A5 Coupe. Very refined and classy car. Had it for two years and recently sold it. Best car I ever had, just smooth and reliable. Right now I have a 2010 523 F10. It has a bit more space, even more refined and a lovely gearbox. Last edited by Senilsson; 06-28-2015 at 07:55 AM.. |

Mine was an 89 Nissan 240SX coupe purchased in 1994. Loved it cause it was one of the few rear-wheeled drive cars out there. No power np but fun to drive. Gave it to my sister when I purchase my first BMW, a 2002 325Ci coupe. Didn't realize the Nissan would become such a sought after drifter car.

2006 Subaru WRX
2015 M235i Parents bought me the WRX when I was in college... I don't think they understood how fast that car is and how dumb it was giving an 18 year old that kind of car... Although, I did make it 10 years with no accidents or speeding tickets. My kids will be getting beaters for sure or a new civic. |

1990ish Honda CRX - First experience with a go kart and it was great. Got up to 110 and it was fun, but never again (too old now)
2002 - Honda Civic EX. Had like 11 people in at once in High School. Reliable car that held its value 2008 - First BMW - a 2008 528i BMW!! The Civic lost like 4K in value (wish it was the same for the BMW) 2006 - Z4 Coupe (one of my favorite BMWs and it is owned in unison with the 528i) |
