Whats Your Favorite Car
OK folks what was your most favorite car your ever owned?
mine was a 1988 Subaru Justy4x4 (The Rockn Rollerskate) and ill tell you what if you ever see one buy it! i beat the living snot out of the car for 4 months all day every day and i have to say that car took a beating like no other and never broke a single part except the sway bar ripped off while off roading, and also for a 3 banger it burned tires into 3rd with ease! by far most durable and balsy car i ever owned twice!

Ever owned, darn, I was going to say a Skyline GT-R34 V-spec II
but I haven't owned one, YET!
So, since my only other two cars were a late 80's Mazda B2000, and a late 80's 3-door Civic, I would have to say MY CAVALIER!

Re: Whats Your Favorite Car
Why does it seem that your always ranting about that GSR of yours. No offense but this is a cavalier forum. And as i do respect you and your vehicle I personally dont want to hear about it everytime u post a reply in here. I dont know about everyone else and i do not speak for every one else it is just my perspective.

1985 Chevy Celebrity
Wasn't fast at all. Took one hellofa beating. Dirt roads, corn fields, mud, rain, snow drifts, bushes, and rock piles.
Had to replace head gasket once.

92 Cavalier
Amazing torque pull to it and that motor took one hell of a beating over a couple years til the entire rear suspension rusted out and it was undriveable...still ran, though...

Ahh yes, the torque, I love it. Who was it that had a signature that said something like "Torque=power, horsepower is for bragging rights." So true. What do you mean by the entire rear suspension? I know my rear bumper is totally rusted away, nothing left but a few edges, lol. And there's a hole in my trunk on the passenger side where the rear shock mounts, that worries me a little. It's a shame, they could have built these great cars to last longer, but they want you to but a new one every few years. Money is the Root of all Evil.

Re: Whats Your Favorite Car
Mine was a 1968 Rambler American, six banger straight, no power steering, brakes, no A/C. Someone stole it a few years ago and toalled it. Bummer. When I do work on the engine, I go right into the engine compartment. By the way, the car was almost all metal. don't see many of them nowadays. If I had the money, I'd buy me a souped up 67 Camaro or a 65 Mustang. None and I mean none of the new cars impress me. Be it Rolls Royce or Hyundai. They are all plastic and soon pressed carboard like my Hongkong boots.

That's what I mean...aren't those some beautiful shock towers in the rear? Granted, some of that damage was probably the result of sending the car airborne at 105 mph...but whatever...ran like a champ til I sold her.
Surprisingly enough, I sold it to a guy from the Gateway J-Bodies for $400 and he had it running safely in a week. He custom made all new sheet metal for that sucker.
