1st car: Early civic that wieghed about 1900lbs; no power but could handle well >>> learned e-braking in the rain. learned to conserve "inertia". Liked to slalom in the science libary parking lot. crashed by my dad (broken tie rod).

2nd car: 1st Gen Rx7 set up for SCCA Racing - sweet, fun - FR, learned the in-and outs of smog-check BS in cali (organic chem helped too). sold after I blew the motor one Christmas nite canyon running in Glendora; also sold after I realized it would be too expensive to drop in a 94 Rx7 TT motor I had sitting around in my garage. Only kind of stinky car i tolerate driving behind.

3rd car Jetta GLI 16v - Factory Recaros Rule - this car made me fall in love with 4dr/5spd variants. Probably the only VW running around at UCi at the time. Originally bought to sell...drove after I blew my rx7's motor. sold.

4th car: Current Accord. Bought from an older japanese couple who lived near Little Tokyo LA. Came with a Broadway mirror the dude had brought back from Japan in 94'. Tight! And just my style.
