New guy, first post might as well be about my "other" love.

My every day driver is an Audi S4. My "special" ride is a '69 GTO Judge.

92 Corvette convertible for KPSP. 05 Subaru Baja turbo for KGEG.

I used to have a 95 Integra GSR. Great car. Only new car I've ever owned. Wish they still made them. I never liked the follow on. RSX I think it was. Had to sell the GSR and get an all wheel drive when I moved half way up the side of a mountain in Spokane.

2005 Chevy Silverado Z71, bought new and is all paid off. (And for sale).

2002 Yamaha YZF600R. What I try to use most of the time. 50+mpg is better that 17mpg any day.

I'm a big car nut. I've got a laundry list of cars that I need to own (at least for a little while ) before I die.

Recently bought a '98 Toyota Avalon with 85k from a family friend. My goal is to make it last until 250k or when I end up with whatever I decide my dream aviation job is. So we'll see which comes first

Many years ago I drove an 87 Toyota Supra Turbo..... that was a fine fast car. The newest thing I own today is 8 years old.. and is a Chevy truck.

98 honda accord with 190,000 on it.

I got smashed at a holloween party and bet my buddy my honda could go anywhere his z71 could at the ranch and proved myself right(he had to pay for the kegs)........I had to buy a new front bumper, right tire, and weld a couple patches in the floor where some rocks poked through but the thing still drives straight as an arrow and gets 28+ mpg.

For that I learned to respect it and decided that once it hits 300,000 I'll get it repainted....ah yes a fresh coat of "emerald green"

Its fast as hell too..afterall it has a spoiler!
