Oh man...bringin back the memories!!!

1992 Buick Park Avenue
1999 Dodge Avenger
1997 Ford Mustang GT
1999 Ford Mustang GT
2001 Honda Accord
2005 Ford Explorer
1999 Nissan Maxima
1999 Kia Sephia
2016 Ford Focus Se
2025 CW Honda CTR

CTR is by far my favorite. And not because it's the latest, but because it just combines everything I wish I had with all my other cars into one. The only thing I miss is the moonroof.

Probably forgetting a couple. I like to experience a bit of everything. Once I buy my "ultimate" version of a brand/model, I swear off of them. Thats how it worked for the VW and the Mini. Always liked the brand and certain models. Got it out of my system, on to the next one. Generally speaking, newer cars with all the tech dont interest me much so even though I'd LOVE a newer 911 or a Mustang/Shelby... the idea of buying one, loving it then having modules/screens/BS fail drives me nuts. The CL55 is hard enough to stomach owning long term with the ABC suspension but so far, so good... the whipple helps! LOL

Thats how I view buying a 2024/45 FL5 Civic Type R. I've always been involved in the JDM Community in one way or another and always wanted to "build" a Honda. I'm 6'6" so I dont fit in a S2000 or original NSX... didnt want to dump $20K+ into an EK9 back in college only to get it stolen so I waited... Same for a DC2/DC5/Prelude, etc. Its time with the FL5!

Those Mercury cougars were great cars. My dad drove the last generation of mercury cougars, his was a 2000 Roush special edition. Poor car's ECU gave out and we couldn't source parts, so he ended up trading it in for a Toyota corolla

Previous cars....Miss the 330i ZHP optioned 6-spd manual. Wish I could've kept that. Didn't have the room though at my condo. The M240i xdrive was fast as h3ll, but a numb driving experience. Love the CTR for driver feed back and useable rear seats.
