My other car is a PT Cruiser. No pictures are needed.
By the way, if anyone else wants to lose all their dignity, it's for sale.

You know you're a DeLorean owner when "Run DMC" is not an 80's band, but a daily prayer.

(The church can not afford to buy it off of me outright, so it appears I will retain title and lease it to them monthly).
I also still own the same car I drove in high school (1981 AMC Spirit). There used to be a picture of it on the old DMCTalk site, but we all know what happened to those archives.... I'll snap a new pic tomorrow.

Man, the Supra is a great looking car!
My first car:
Oddly enough, even though it is piss slow, if I can find another brown 1984 Trans Am, I would actually buy it. My first car was such a POS, i could never drive it. Raced my friend through downtown fort lauderdale one morning and had an engine fire. Blew it out, kept driving. My dad tried to get it to run right with the help of his "mechanic" friends, but I ended up trading it in for
1994 Ford Ranger Splash. LOVED this truck. This was my first stick shift vehicle. I actually bought it, had a friend test drive it, had another friend drive it home. Took the truck out at 2am and taught myself how to drive it. By 6am, I was shifting like a boss.
While I had that, i bought:
1985 Trans Am... missed my 84 something fierce. Bought this one from a junk yard and started restoring it on my own. Ended up getting stolen and dumped into a canal.
After that, I had a problem with the 94 splash... had a late growth spurt and my knees were hitting the dash. Had to sell it and bought:
Car was a money pit, found out the T-top rail was rotted through, ended up killing the oil pump and bending a pushrod. Sold it during a local friday night car show, and bought my favorite car:
1996 WS6 Firebird Formula similar to the pic, but all white, hard top, with cloth interior. One of 524 made, but RARE hard top 6 speed cloth option. Nitrous fed. Yum. Ran this car from major turnpike plaza in fort lauderdale to major turnpike plaza in orlando in 1 hour 45 minutes Car was sick.
But, living in Orlando, had to drive 40 miles each way to work. Blew out transmission, had to trade it in on...
2001 Ford Focus ZX3... dark red. Drove this car to 175k miles and sold it to Carmax. My uncle passed away in TN and I inherited:
2000 Chrysler LHS. "The Land Yacht". GREAT road trip car... but, sold it last month since im moving to NC.
Dad passed away back in 2009, this = another inherited car.
Yep... ANOTHER Ford Focus. My dad liked mine so much, my mom and I traded in his rotted F150 for one. If I would have known I was going to get it, I would have bought him a Porsche Oh well... free car = no more payments.
Lack of car payments = money to burn monthly = my delorean
These were my drivers. Now, the PROJECT cars... tired of posting pics, so i'll just list them...
1968 charger: belonged to a friend, spent all it's life in my back yard because he didnt work on cars. fixed up slightly and sold
1970 Olds cutlass. 350 rocket, bought for 200 bucks, sold in Auto Trader for 1k.
1984 Buick Regal. Cyclone class race car. Slowest race car I have ever been in. Still hate that car.
I think that's it.... Im pretty sure.

I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"
I had never heard of my other (newer) toy until I read about it on the old DMCTalk website. I started researching them, found one in Chicago and bought it.
