The cars I've owned and their fates:
1. '91 Ford Laser station wagon. This baby had 375,000km's on it when I crashed it. One day I was driving along and I heard sirens. Naturally I looked around to see if I might have to give way. Turns out I didn't. The ambulance was three lanes off to my left, turning left. The car two in front of me, however, didn't look around, they just slammed their brakes on. Had I been looking atraight in front of me, I probably would've been able to stop, but since I was looking at the albulance, I ran up the back of the car in front of me . Only a minor accident, but since my car was such a piece of junk it wasn't worth repairing. Sold it for $150. One thing I really miss about this car is all the storage space.

2. Hyundai Excel 3 door hatchback. This was a massive upgrade from the Laser. I can't believe I crashed this car. Those jet things that spray water onto the windscreen to wash it weren't working, and I was too lazy to clean it myself, so occasionally it got extremely dirty. This was only an issue when the sun was shining through it, but when that happened, it was next to impossible to see. Anyway, one day I was driving a mate home and the sun was in our eyes. We couldn't see anything. To see if it was safe to turn a corner, I actually just stuck my head out the window... When I arrived at his place, I said to him, "Man, I gotta wash my windscreen otherwise I'm going to have an accident on the way home." Anyway, I forgot, and... I crashed it on the way home lol. Yep, coudln't see anything. Again not a huge crash. It was only just not worth repairing that car.

3. '02 Mitsubishi Lancer 2 door sedan. This is my current car. I don't like it very much but oh well, considering my driving ability, I'll probably crash it soon lol.

What's your favorite Ferrari? Ferrari 599 GTB
What's your favorite Lamborghini? Muira
What's your favorite method of transmission?Are you insinuating there's something better than a manual?
Which do you prefer over the others: Handling? Acceleration? Top speed? Handling. Wing mirrors are for the vain. If you clear an apex by 6 inches, then you were 5 inches wide of the mark. Yeah, mark me in the Porsche camp. Draw your blood in the corners. The straights will take care of themselves.
What's the best car you've seen? 2nd Gen Corvette. But it was in red. I would've preferred mako shark blue.
What was the first car you drove? Mercury Lynx. You laugh, you die.
What was first car you've owned? Die.

Drivers/owners

What was the first car you drove? It was either a Chevy Station Wagon, or a GMC 1-ton, probably the GMC on the Farm.
What was first car you've owned? 79' Camaro Z28
What's the best car, in your opinion, you've driven? (stock) A Dodge Magnum R/T. Next to a Mustang, it ranks second as a car that was built for me. With the Mercedes E-Series Chassy/Suspension, it has better handling over the Mustang. Would have been better with a manual 6-speed. Driving the SRT-8 was fun too, but the stock Hemi had a better feel to it.

What's the best car, in your opoinion, you've driven? (Custom-Built) My current Jeep JK 4-door Wrangler. Just enough of a monster to get where I need to, and still handle well, but not enough to make it look awkward, and unsafe. Should have it finished late next year, after I drop a Hemi in it.

What's the Funnest car, in your Opinion, you've driven? When I rented a Hertz, Ford Mustang GT500 Convertable. If it was a stick, I would have bought it on the spot. It was a little loose, but with a hard-top, and a bit of tweeqing of the Suspension, and it would have been perfect.
