This is my list  
1995 Z26 Beretta-Black(Sold it cause my dad found all kinds of problems with it)  
1990 Trans Am GTA-Dark Red(Sold it cause it began to rust and it was breaking more causing it 2 be off the road more then being on)  
1994 Grand Prix Se-Red(car was solid but i got t-boned and it was totalled)  
1998 Dodge Neon-Black(still have and gonna try to sell it soon)  
1994 Firebird Formula-Red

The last 2 i still own.i wish i still had my Z though.it was my first car and it handled pretty good. The GTA i miss from time to time because when i first bought it cause it was a really nice car.i took care of it but because it wasnt garaged March-November the car slowly began to rust and things began to break in groups and they were not cheap either.

My first vehicle was an 86 2.9L ranger 5 speed. Good riddens.

My second was an 89 civic dx hatch. I totaled it in the rain on bald tires. Would like a 1991 teal CRX Si to replace it.

I bought a new 06 Evo 9 to own and keep forever.

I have a 90 eclipse that I will also never part with.

So basically all I’d want back is the car I totaled to be replaced with a teal crx si with under 100K miles.

All Beretta 2.3L GTZs were 5 speeds.

That car was the least reliable car I ever owned. Typical GM junk. I replaced in 3 short years: starter, clutch, water pump (looks like bad head gasket, as water enters the oil thru the pump), timing chain sliders, catalytic converter, motor mounts, head gasket (very common on Quad4 cars), exhaust system, ECM, Coil packs (more than once), several sets of brakes, shifter cables, rear wheel bearings, ABS wheel sensor, etc, etc.

These are only the items I can remember because I got rid of it in 1998.

Why in the fuck would you sell that…that is some typical old dude shit…I had a \_\_\_ and I sold it…man i wish I woulndt have…

For me I am really dont have anything other than a sweet ass 83 s-10 pickup…no PS, PB and had a 4 speed. No heat upper heat ducts…just heat on the floor and defrost…only had a rubber floor…but it did have the badass 2.8 carb v-6. It was awesome for a beater to hal shit…and didnt care if it got beat up. Would love to have to haul my cynznycle as well.
