Strength/Confidence
I've been driving a ctsv for the last couple years and still have it, but is mainly a garage queen. So I guess my previous car was a trans am ws6. It was totaled. Stupid people that don't know how to drive. I miss that car.

1988 Chrysler LeBaron - 1st car. Lasted 5 months.
2000 Ford Escort coupe - Yeah, I was in college and the lease was cheap.

1999 Chrysler Condorde LXI - Totalled this car (I was a dumb teen) and man do I miss it. 3.2L V6 (AT but oh well), the car had 140k miles on it and the transmission was still perfect. I miss that feeling. 
1996 Ford Contour - God I HATED this car. Sold it to a junkyard for $150... nuff said.
2004 Oldsmobile Alero - This car is a piece of work... tranny shifts like crap and the struts are shot (150k miles on it). Didn't have money to get new tires so it's got snows on here in Houston from NY. Still have it... 3 car insurance is somehow 600$ cheaper than 2 car, go figure.
2005 RX-8 - Love this car!

My last and first car was a
2001 Chrysler Sebring Convertible w/ the infamous 2.7L V6 unfortunately..
Stupid Chrysler thought it was a good idea to throw the water pump inside of the engine..
Lasted me all through High School until one day in August it just died in the middle of the road at a light during rush lunch hour..
Lasted 10k miles until that happened at 107k
She was a pretty one
shes long gone.

I had a 93 Chevy Cavalier Z24 convertible. It was my baby! I got it when I was at WyoTech in 2000. Parked the car in early 2004 and spent 5 years and about $5k rebuilding the engine and repainting the car at completely different color (GM code 23, Deep atlantic blue). My 2nd day out a lady hit me and totalled the car out. I suffered a fractured sternum but the pain of losing that car after all the blood, sweat, and tears brought me to my knees and I sobbed like a bitch.

Wankels,how do they work?
First car was a 88 Ford Escort station wagon. Got it for free sold it for $500
Second was a 95 Honda Del Sol. Got that in 05 and now has 178k miles on it. Still runs great. Not sure about selling it.
Ended up getting a 04 RX-8 with 64k miles.
