'98 Mazda 626 ES-V6. Good maneuverability, and a strong engine for that freeway merge.

1977 Trans-Am 6.6 litre w/T-tops...driving test inspector went to get in and looked at no rear sear, the roll bar and the 5-piece harness sets for the driver and passanger and asked if the car was street legal. I didn't tell him we had capped off the exhaust from running straight off the comp. headers to force it through the mufflers.:p

Handed him that appropriate paperwork and off we went....

BTW...that was a little while ago.;)

Still have it in the family, I think one of my uncles has it now and still drives it occasionally. Was purchased new and the odo has rolled over twice now I think. :Q Was my first car so it'll always have a place with me. :)

1979 Chevy Impala station wagon

The guy didn't even bother checking my distance to curb on the parallel parking test, he was impressed enough that I completed the 3-point u-turn without hitting the curbs.

That kind of sucks.

I remember in driver's ed we had to demonstrate our skills in driving in reverse. I ended up in the early 80's era Suburban. :)
