VERY nice. My 1st car was a 1987 Nissan Maxima. Didn't put that much into it, but this was in the late 80s when modding imports wasn't quite so global yet:



As for my "sad" car, when the Maxima was down for various reasons, my back up car was a beat up Datsun B210.

I always thought the '87 '88 Max's were cool -- they had the MOST amount of dials on the instrument cluster...very cool

LOL! I had driven four cylinder engine cars all my youth until my dad bought a '96 MB C280 w/ an I-6 5AT .. damn that thing was fast (for me) but by today's standards, a dog.

Years later my buddy would take me for a "spin" in his Z06 '02 Vette and scare the sh-- outta me... that's real power -- that's real sport.

1984 Buick Regal Sedan, V6 with like 85 hp. The car was my dad's, then my mom's and then mine. That thing had a two tone paint scheme, blue and faded blue in the hood, roof and trunk. sold it for $800.00 back in 1999, had over 150K miles and the odo was broken for the last four years. Seat belt broke in two two pieces...

1953 Chevrolet Deluxe, 4 door, 3 speed column shifter, bought VERY used in 1962. Speedo was broken so I don't know the mileage, but the car had been a fishing car, and had about 300 lbs of red clay dust in the trunk. I paid $75.00 cash for it, and drove it my last 2 years in high school.

My first car was a 1957 Chrysler Imperial that we got sometime in the mid 60s, I think. This car outweighed a tank by about 2 tons. It was quite sharp though. The four door body was white and the landau style roof was light blue in the rear and stainless steel towards the front. You could go 100mph in this car and if you closed your eyes, you couldn't tell that you were even moving.

I once t-boned a Ford Falcon that ran a stop sign and didn't even break a headlight. He was towed to the junkyard.

The first car I ever drove was a 70 VW station wagon.

My first car was an 89' Civic DX. First car to have Lightspeed cams and Mugen suspension
Then on to a 92' Civic DX, 01' Ford Mustang GT, BMW 335i (wife's car), to the G.
