  • A 1988 Accord, which belonged to my mom. I stole it when I was 14 to go to a party, got surrounded by bad guys, who followed me out of the party, and one of em sat on the hood in front of me while I was trying to get the car in gear (not having mastered the stick shift thing). I got it into reverse and peeled out down the icy winter street. While I was accelerating in reverse down the block, he sprawled out on my hood and punched out the windshield with his bare fist. I careened into a snow bank, put it in drive and went home. I had to park the car back home and lie to my mom that I had no idea what happened to the car. Police determined that somebody drove by and hit it with a very large rock, although there was no rock to be found. Close call!



    I used to drive this early 90s lincoln around town once I got my license. It was fun, comfortable, and when you were clowning around pumping the brakes the ample suspension made it look like you were hitting switches.


    This car was a blast. 88 Nissan Pulsar. Total pos, but looked cool and got amazing gas mileage. Drove it pre mish.



    Drove this throughout college. I guess ambition was never my strong suit.


    Got this 96 Jeep Cherokee Country after undergrad, put a ton of miles on it, although if you have one you know you need to replace the water pump about every 35k or so.



    Here's my 62 chevy II (nova) that I've done a ton of stuff to. I'll never get rid of it.



    I guess I have a thing for nostalgia. I got this 95 Crown Vic brand new w 20k on it for 3k. It's my daily and I love this thing. It's got a V8, silky smooth but firm suspension, a trunk big enough to fit a gang of corpses, and cops absolutely refuse to pull me over in this thing.

    • You drove an 88 'sar? those cars were rad.

      The vehicles at Dracula's Castle (Lagoon) look like miniature 'Sars.

      Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

      • Law enforcement officers everywhere were disappointed when the final Crown Vic rolled off the assembly line.

        • Man, some of you guys go through a lot of cars. I change cars about once every 15 years on average.

            Not this guy. 6 years later, and my personal car history is unchanged.

            1979 Mustang - Not the cool classic Mustang, but the one with the hatchback. It was red, but was highly oxidized, so it looked orange. Also, mine didn't have the cool turbocharge engine or vented hood.




            1995 Suzuki Swift - Teal Green, 40mpg, and zippy as they come.




            2004 Toyota Matrix - Pretty much the superior version of the Kia Spectra 5
