Favorite cars we don't have anymore

[bones129]

My fav car ever is not what I have now. Instead, it's my long-gone 1968 Firebird (emerald green) which I bought very well-used. Loved it. Felt at home and at ease in it. It ran like crazy. Sold it, and have regretted it since. The 'Bird wouldn't have been an everyday car now, but it would see some miles.

No merge needed. Didn't get it in high school, but long, long after. Rebuild. Got it a few years ago on a whim. Find a '68 Bird and drive it. You'll like it...unless you can't handle it. It's not a Honda or a Toyota.

 

[The Big Train]

'90 Honda Prelude.  Fast, took corners like a champ, drivers seat touched back seat(I am very tall, felt like a cockpit)

It was black with racing stripes. Drove it in High School. Lots of chicks lost V-cards, I mean LOTS.

Miss that sex machine

A '90 Prelude as an eff-machine? Obviously a manufacturer's aberation.

Why do you think there was a big sunroof

All of my cars have been pieces of crap, don't really miss any of them.

I had a '74 CJ5 Wrangler. It was purple like the Wildcats and it was badass. I could pop wheelies in it.

But my current truck is probably my favorite vehicle I've ever owned.

I miss my dads riding lawn mower sometimes.

I hate when people say v-cards, also man-cards. Makes me want to punch them in the h-card. (head)

Sometimes I miss my 1997 F-150. I had it until I had kids. But it was just a regular cab. OMG KIDS RUIN EVERYTHING AMIRITE?!

This thread = good idea + poor execution.

I will throw in that I loved all my cars and miss all of them for different reasons

1964 Chevrolet pickup - could not take to college because it got about 8 mpg and had 3 gears
1997 Chevrolet Cavalier - If you ordered pita pit between 2006-2009 you saw this car
2003 Lexus IS300 - some drunk bad person totaled it when it was parked on a street near westport

I can't say I loved all of my cars. I had an '82 Datsun diesel truck that I absolutely hated.

[bubbles4ksu]

I used to have this exact same car. Some days I feel like a steve dave sock.

Drove this sucker the first year after I turned 16 and anytime I was grounded after that. Man was she a beut.



1989 Toyota Minivan LE(Luxury Edition). Cool features about this car included

Named Cletus
Moon/Sun Roof in back.
Mini Cooler in front, big enough for a 6pack.(Refrigeration no longer worked)
You sat on the engine.
200,000+ Miles
Did not fare well over 55mph
You could start it with a screw driver...No joke, literally stick a flathead screw driver in the ignition and turn
Key Broke off in Lock of driver side door so I always kept the window behind door cracked so I could reach arm in manually unlock door.
Friends knew about the last 2 and sometimes I would come out of football practice and my car would be moved across the parking lot.
Cletus spent his last few years of life as My brother and I's lawnmowing van, take out he backseats and you can fit 2 push mowers in.

because of this and your profile pic I immediately pictured you as Carl Spackler. This seems like a Spackler move.

I became a caddy for 2 months because of the movie caddyshack. Imagine this buet parked in the parking lot of Indian Hills CC.

Snapper!?

'89 K5 Blazer.  Better than any loser car mentioned so far.

[Rage Against the McKee]

This really brings back the memories. I drove this baby in high school.



Instead of buttons around the wheel and dash, this car had mostly levers. One of the levers was labeled "amplifier". Sure enough, when you pulled the lever, the radio would play much louder through the shitty speakers.

In no particular order and closest to the real car I could find, some of them are just way too exotic I guess
1976 Ford F-100. Was my grandpas at first, bro y-l_a1 drove it after and beat the crap out of it, bro y-l_a 2 had it inserted subwoofers bump bump  , then much later I periodically drove it until the neighbors tree fell on it.. If anyone remember a 2 tone blue ford at MHS 

 

seXterra 'nuff said


first car, loved it because it was my first.. then I hit a curb and I think one of the belts or something got loose and then it overheated and died. end of story.

had this for a few months. sheesh a tall lanky sophomore looks goofy driving that.


do not let your eyes deceive you. yes that is the same car as my first. loved it so much I got a different one. sports edition vroom vroom.


kinda wish I still had this, it was like a tank

[Ghost of Stan Parrish]

Definitely not a favorite, but I drove this in HS.  It was so light my friends could pick it up and move it on occassion.  Woof.
