Although i am 17 this is my second car. My first car was 2003 Hyundai Accent. What an unsafe feeling car. Kinda fun to drive becuase it was really nimble but not very comfortable or nearly enough power. Then i found my 318ti. SO i sold the Accent and bought the ti, actually made some money too.

Default From The Past

83 VW Rabbit GTI (1991 - 1993) 90k km - 200k km, 5spd Fantastic first car, beautiful shape when I bought it, cheap to fix and fun to drive.

88 Mazda 323 GTX (1993 - 1995) 5 spd 16v turbo all wheel drive, very fun car to drive only had to rebuild the tranny once.

89 Toyota 4Runner (1995 - 1996) 5spd 4x4 V6 Very useful, but hard on gas when I was a student.

86 VW GTI 5spd, (1996 - 1998) great car should have kept it.

94 VW GTI 5spd (1998 -2001) I have a thing for GTI's

99 Subaru Outback (2001-2001) automatic, good car, but the automatic really really sucked.

95 Honda Accord EXR (2001 - 2004) 5spd happy to have a manual again, it was a very nice car, boring but nice.

98 BMW 318ti, (2004 - current) 5spd, sport M package, unbelievable car, absolutely love it.
