#120, Well, a good mix of comfort and fun. I'm a much more relaxed driver now than I was before I started to rally. So it doesn't have to be a rocket but then again it has to mover around under it's own power if you catch my drift.
Er... the budget. Uh, none. But that will change in a few months I think (I got accepted into Automobilklub Wielkopolski so I'll be even closer to the sport and the track... and jobs). |

#122, Certainly. I was thinking about a 2.4 740. Even the 140hp version would do. I've never driven an RWD car and I guess it would be easy to upgrade to the 170hp version. |

#123, Excellent choice. I'm in Quebec's Volvo Club and some people got 740s and 760s and they just adore em. Roomy, comfortable, quite luxurious, simple, unbreakable, powerful enough, well engeneered, you get the point. lol |

Y'know, 2001, wow.
...when this site started:
- Terrorism was a shrug-off danger in our lives. The twin towers still stood. We felt secure.
- RWD cars (and V8s for that matter) were on their way out. "large" and "sporty" American cars were generally FWD slushbuckets... the Camaro and Firebird could see the writing on the wall...
- These new-fangled "hybrids" were an interesting niche vehicle... actually seeing one was rare. And by "hybrid" I mean gas-electric, since, hybrid could also mean those new-style car-based SUVs...
- Geo, as a brand, was only dead for four years. The Cavalier and Sunfire existed, and had yet to receive their final facelifts... hell, Oldsmobile, Mercury, Pontiac, Saturn, Hummer, Daewoo, and Saab-branded cars were on sale in America... though, Plymouth had *just* bit the big one.
- Kias were cheap, CHEAP cars with derivative styling and immensely chintzy interiors.
- The Space Shuttle was still flying regularly, with only one catastrophic failure on record. |

I still wonder if this car still exists....faded, bent-up, and dirty sitting semi-derelict in someone's yard, maybe even with a few of those yellow stickers still intact. |

I was just starting my senior year of high school. The house I lived in then doesn't even exist anymore, having been destroyed by a tornado in April of 2011. I drove a white 1984 Camaro Berlinetta in cherry condition, and acquired a reddish-brown 1985 Volvo 244 GL in December of that year, thinking that I could save on gas because it had a 4 cylinder. I didn't.
Most of my personal views, including those on cars, are more or less the same. My dream cars back then were Hemi Mopars, which I still love, but there are other cars I now appreciate just as much. My appreciation for Japanese cars, especially older models, has grown. I'm more laid back now. |

I was a 13 year old car nut; I loved Fast and Furious and tried to justify why those cars weren't rice because they had "performance" to back up the looks. I spent my weekends on a farm, and tinkering on various cars including a 1974 Ford Maverick, a few Chevy LUVs, and a 1978 Mercury Marquis. A family friend owned a junkyard, which I would go to on my way out to the farm, and I began a massive car parts collection, most of which I ebayed a while back on my dad's account. I tried my hand at driving (on the farm) in said Marquis and ended up getting it stuck in a graveltrap.
I began collecting diecast cars seriously, and I also began a slight obsession with collecting variations of HW cars. I also began to collect 1:18 scale cars seriously as well, and I bought my first two UT Models (both of which I destroyed out of anger about 10 or so years ago. I also discovered the "donk craze" through BET/MTV and I kept thinking that that would be the new "tuner fad". Sadly, I was right. |
