Before:
1993 Toyota MR2 Turbo
1997 Honda Prelude
Current:
1998 Honda Civic LX
2008 Toyota Tundra CrewMax
2009 CBR600RR
2008 Kawasaki Ninja250R
2008 Goped...
I really miss the Toyota MR2 Turbo. I didn't know much about cars back then and didn't really have the skills either so I ditched it for a VTEC. All this talk about VTEC this, VTEC that made me want one bad. Boy, was that a mistake! I should have kept the MR2.

before my civic, I had a 94 Dodge Stratus that I did a motor, tranny and drivetrain swap on from an Eagle Talon Tsi. had set it up as a 4wd turbo that I used to race with when I lived in Orlando. Before that, I had a 99 Dodge Caravan that I had a custom stereo in for spl competitions.

My first Honda was a 97 Civic DX sedan - traded in a Ford Ranger for it.
Now, I'm sporting an 04 EL - traded in a Ford Explorer for it.
Trend??

Hmm... Lets see if I can recollect on all this!
1985 Mercedes Benz 500SEL (hunk of **** but it would run like a scalded dog!)
1992 Ford Escort Pony
1994 Mercury Sable Station wagon (fun til I ripped the CV axle out of it)
1993 Ford Explorer Sport (FUN!)
joined the army, mom gave the truck to her BF after I signed it over to her prior to my departure,
2003 F150 Supercrew Lariat edition (Miss that thing)
1995 Ford Thunderbird LX (Edition 1 4.6L P.O.S. Had 200 lbs of bondo on the side XD )
PIC--
Bondo... And to answer all questions... I bought it like that. My auto body skills are far superior to the f&%@ss that did that.
1994 Ford Escort LX
1991 Ford Escort GT (yes it's faster than most of the above...)
1995 Honda Civic DX
Damn what a list... notice a pattern?

Re: What did you have before your civic???
I loved this car. So many custom made parts that looked oem, you would never know. Had the engine rebuilt, mechanic was garbage and the whole drivetrain ended up being destroyed.
Then the garage queen that was sold because it was too nice to have a DD since the grand am blew up. I will have buy another F-Body one day. So I bought the civic. These were from the day I bought it.
