First car was/is my grandfathers 2001 Toyota Tundra, got it stock with 67k miles on it and it now has 297k it is not stock anymore... Supercharged, custom long travel suspension, 4wd conversion, dual battery, solar, onboard air, lots of other stuff. Trying to wrap up the engine management and digital dash setup now.
I then bought a new 2011 Mini Cooper S as a commuter car and drove that until 2019 when it finally became to unreliable.
I sold that car with 125k miles after doing a ton of repairs for my current dd.
2019 Subaru WRX Series Gray with 67k that I paid off last Friday. Mostly stock but I did install STI 4 piston brembos that I color matched to the paint.

First car I had was a 2003 Chevy Malibu. Picked up my first solo purchased car in 2011, a Honda Civic Coupe. 3rd car in and I'm on a 2014 Toyota Prius. Still kicking, although slight battle damage and minimal upkeep. Really wanna go for a full EV next time around, and I could probably lease since I drive well under 10k miles/yr.
My first car was a 2004 Outback. Good riddance, it was a mechanical clusterfuck.
Currently I still have:
- 1991 Honda Accord, my solid daily
- 1977 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, the summer weekend boat (yea I'm a bit block cadillac guy lol). 425 cubic inches of Fuck OPEC.
On the back burner are a couple others.
- 1999 Subaru Forester, 5spd manual. Originally my high school daily. I lifted this one 2" and drove it in the gambler 500 a few times, it's transmission sounds like a blender and is blowing up so I parked it until I get a chance to swap a new 5spd in - which is hard because they're hard to find these days.
- 2000 VW Golf TDI, 5spd manual. Got it for free, snapped timing belt at 300k. This was going to become a highway daily but life got in the way and I never had the time or mental energy to really dig into it.
1968 Ford Galaxie 500 2dr

Used 10 speed with no brakes. Almost killed me once. 0-10 would not recommend.
No make or model? Just some steel tubing taped together?
Lol pretty much. It barely had paint on it and I'm not entirely sure my Dad didn't take it off of someone's porch.

Previous: 73 240z, 88 RX-7, 89 Golf Wolfsburg Edition, 89 CRX Si, 87 Civic sedan, 88 Civic sedan, 96 Civic hatch.
I want another 240z and an FD RX-7.
Good taste. The FD is the most beautiful car ever made but it sucks to maintain. I have a friend who has had every gen RX7 and he complains about the FD constantly.

Used to have a Ferrari but I’m old and getting in and out has become too much of a hassle. Currently, some Bentley I believe. Whatever the chauffeur suggested. I’m not much of a car guy.
I’ve had a whole ton of cars in my life, but I’ll start with my current car and go backwards:
2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL AWD, 2011 Pontiac Vibe AWD, 2002 Dodge Dakota SXT 4x4, 2012 Suzuki SX4 AWD, 1994 Suzuki Swift, 1994 Geo Metro, 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4, 1984 Subaru GL Station Wagon 4x4, 2002 Ford F150 XLT Longbed 2x4, 2016 Hyundai Veloster Turbo, 2007 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4, 2013 Hyundai Elantra, 1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse AWD, 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara, and a 1994 Suzuki Sidekick Sport (First Car).
I’ve loved every car I’ve owned for a variety of reasons, but always had one complaint or another about some lack of functionality that the car had. The Santa Cruz is the first time I’ve not felt the need to pick up an old beater as an alternative, since it meets all my needs pretty well now.
I also have a motorcycle now as well, so I’m no longer as concerned with speed in my cars since I get it on the bike. I ride a 2011 Yamaha Raider.
