96 Ford Taurus
2005 Hyundai Elantra
2007 Toyota Tundra - would own again
2009 Scion TC - would own again
2011 KIA Forte Koup - would own again
Worked on ex's beater Saturn SC2 one time and decided I wasn't afraid of older vehicles anymore:
1986 BMW 325es - Current 200k ish
1994 Chevy S-10 - Current 380k ish
1990 BMW M3 - Current 193k ish
I've always known I wanted an 80's 3-Series but didn't even know it was an e30 until two years ago. Will drive one for the rest of my life.
Looking to get a GTI, starting to play out in a band and need space....or just take the passenger seat out of the 325es. Would like a touring e30 but that's probably not in reach for me.
@xxx-Lost-Soul-xxx that's more than around 2 cars per year for your driving age! SLUT!111 :hitler: I'd love to have an old 6 :(Leave a comment:

first car - 1977 merc-benz 240d - parents bought as surprise for 2800 - ran on veggie oil, slow and heavy and auto but man it was a cruiser would own again in a heart beat. got hit, then the compression in my cylinders went out. collected insurance and sold car for 400 bucks :(
second car - 1986 BMW 325e - bought myself for 1k - snapped a head stud a month or two after i bought it. been rebuilding it ever since and im nearly done a year + later.
third car - 1983 BMW 320i - bought from local shop for 500 bucks - drove it for the past 6 months, replaced cooling components, replace driveline components, personalized interior, new tires. last month drive shaft went out of wack, needs to be balance and needs new u-joints. still have it, planning on making it into a drift/track toy. hopefully with 8 cylinders.Leave a comment:
