I had a 1971 Toyota FJ40, and built a 1992 supercharged Camaro with a mini blower. Those were my coolest, but also a couple Fiero's, a Z32, and an E30.

...also the guy that rode a bicycle everywhere '09-'14 got hit 7 times, with the last one disabling me. So don't get too bent over car stuff. I've put in over 170k miles on a bicycle since '09.

I had a Mazda MX-6 as my first car. Not super rare but I've only ever seen 2 other ones.

Currently I have an 09 Lexus GS460. Only 1600 total built and only 56 in 2009 so it's exceptionally rare but no one cares.

Turns out a $65000 V8 sedan didn't sell well when gas was $4/gal and the economy was in shambles.
