MLAHAHAHAHA!

That should been my whole list, save the last two cars.

I have never liked imports, and have been a bit of a bigot about it, but now I love love love this little car.

I'm sold - I didn't know what I was talking about.

Now that's what I'm looking for! a fellow GL owner. See guys, Subaru DID actually sell a few cars before the Impreza WRX!

I just hope the WRX treats me as well as my GL's did, I'll be happy with half of the reliability of those cars.

1987 Escort GT (died the first day I got it)
1983 VW Scirocco 8V (I miss this car)
1988 VW Scirocco 16V (not the same as the '83)
1991 VW Jetta (an automatic with a killer sound system)
1997 Suzuki X90 4WD (don't laugh, it was still fun to drive)
1999 Ford Escort ZX2 (best Escort Ford ever made)
2002 WRX Sportwagon (I found my dream car. This one will be with me a very long time)

The WRX is my first car, but I used to drive my Dad's cars:

A good list. I'd take any of your fun cars. Interesting that you categorized the 325i in the pod/crap section.

Yeah, I left those off my list. My cars (previous page), all sports cars or sedans. My wife's cars: a dreary succession of barges and that's how she likes 'em. Our automotive tastes diverge wildly and no amount of coaxing on my part ever puts something exciting in her 1/2 of the garage. Here's her list: AMC Hornet, Dodge Van (1979 monstrosity - thick rugs, refrigerator, 8-track, etc.), Mercury Topaz, Ford Aerostar, Honda Civic (the only time I swayed her), Kia Sportage, Honda CRV and just got her a '99 Chrysler Town and Country. Wheh.

Hey Steve,

Yeah the 325 was a commuting pod...and not for long. It was not a very reliable car at all. I traded it in on the Geo ( salesman though I was completely nuts ) because at the time I was commuting 120+ miles a day and needed the best fuel ecnonmy I could find. It was really bizarre going from driving the Geo for commuting and then jumping in the TTZ after work...from model T performance to Space shuttle thrust.

My wife has always been a sports car fiend..thats how we met! She parked next to my 928 one day in her '93 MR2 Turbo and it was love at first sight ( for the car..wife took a little longer ). She drive the max now. We had to sell her MR2 when she got pregnant and couldnt fit in the car anymore, that was a sad day. Plus having two 2seat sports cars doesnt work for a family. She has "forced" me to upgrade the max..its a work in progress and she is clamoring for a supercharger on it...we are like two peas in a pod when it comes to cars! ..Now If I could only get her to love fishing...
