i totally forgot how bad my taste was as a kid until i cleaned my room and found some old notebooks. before i got my first CRX, I wanted an automatic 80s Camaro, black, with T-tops and subwoofers… and for some reason i liked Berlinettas, even though to this day I have no idea what Berlinetta stands for… I think I liked it because it sounded German.

edit: hahah…here…

it’s funny… i loved camaros + firebirds as a kid… turned 15, got a CRX and started loving FWD + awesome suspensions… now i’m almost 22 and I want three cars:

a FWD with an awesome suspension

a rally car

and a cheesy-ass looking 80s Camaro making ridiculous power, leaky T-tops and all…😃

meh, i never really cared for the 3rd gen Fbody’s… I liked the SN95 stangs when i was a kid…

Parents nixed the RWD V8 idea, and a kid at my school had a 93 VTEC prelude. I looked it up on the internet, saw that it made 200hp (which was only like 25hp less than the mustang i wanted), and my love for imports was born…

And i loved how they were fairly rare, and they were notably sportier than a foxbody mustang.

insurance cheaper…probably but the expensive insurance is worth an LS1. actually my insurance isn’t to bad because i have my ram sport listed first then my ta. so i get multi car discount. keep that in mind.
