My old civic hatch. My wife smashed it in to 2 deer in NY 4 years ago(back when she was my girlfriend). These were the only pictures I have left. Dont poke fun, I thought the car was really cool back then. Tastes have changed.. but I still miss her, was proud to say I did all the work myself, although my skills have greatly improved. The performance was similar to the 8, 220hp NA, 14.9 quarter mile.

I am coming off an Audi A4 Quattro (2.8) into my RX-8. Heck of a transition, but a whole lot of fun

I had a Bentley, but I got tired of all the looks and glares, so I downgraded to this little RX-8.

98-2001 94 sentra (good car it was, i couldnt pic my self buying a civic or a integra when i see the price for a 7 i almost had a heart attack. US vs JP is way different on price. so i had to find something to drive for the time being.)

( Since i couldnt find me a rwd car that i like and i didnt want a s13 since im not a nissan fan i got this car. i miss that car . funny never knew i would end up liking a miata, but more i seen it the more i thought it look like a FB 7 with jsut a soft top.

the first car I ever had was a 1998 Saturn SL1, i got it for successfully tranferring up to A&M College station.



It was a good little car, used to be my grandmas, then it was my dad's then he handed it down to me. I used it for about a year after I graduated and after 150K miles and some mony in the bank i bought my 05 RX8 GT loaded cept for Nav.

Note that pic isnt EXACLY the car I had, just found the make/model on images.google.com mine was white.
