What did you have before

I dont know if this has been done before, but what was everyone elses car before their evo of ralliart or lancer or whatever you drive and do you wish you had any of them back. I know i sure do. I loved my silvia. She wore an s15 conversion on chromalusion paint with an sr20det redtop(rear wheel version not awd), white leather interior, and 18's. Boy do i miss her. Anyways, post away. Here are mine.
1st car-1967 Ford Mustang
2nd car- 1993 Ford Probe GT
3rd car- 1998 Nissan 240sx
4th car- 2004 Mitsu Ralliart
And i dont know if this counts or not since i didn't outright own it, i just drove it around and to school for 6 1/2 months but a 2000 Chevy Corvette. It was given to me by a buddy while he worked on the silvia. Really good friends so he didn't care at all.

Sorry the Pics are so big....

This is my old car: 2001 IS300 every bolt on possible short of F/I. Loved the Rotora Big Brake Kit and 5Zigen wheels on that car.....I miss the Lexus service compared to Mitsu, but the Evo MORE than compensates for the IS.




Here's a pic of my old project car before my brother-in-law moved away, and bought me out of the project, taking the car with him......S13 black top. That was a fun car that I do miss. The body was a SKANK NASTY 1989 240, but it was the ultimate sleeper. Especially with the drastic weight loss program we had the car on.....He's since upgraded the turbo (t3/t4hybrid) and bought an HKS manifold.
