2003 Ford Focus SVT ZX5 Sonic Blue. Still have a tear in my eye over this one. Blast to drive, one of the best handling cars I ever drove. Lost count of how many Stangs I lost in the clover leafs.
Totaled Apr. 26th.
Doesn't seem like much, but was over 5k in damage.

I upgraded tremendously! I came from a 2001 Saturn SL. The thing was bone stock, didn't even have power windows or locks. It had to be one of the worst cars ever. Went through a liter of oil every week, crawled up hills, and sounded like it was going to explode at anything close to 80mph. Thank god for my xb!

^^Was my DD before it officially died Dec 26, 2007. Bought the xB2 Jan 2008 and spent the next few months on basic mods, plus repairing the many things wrong on the 1990 Eclipse.
I've since done plenty more mods on the xB2 plus a fair number to the Eclipse -- it's pretty much my baby, but the breadbox is special too

Haha well I'll throw the break down list then. My favorite I owned was my 01 Lincoln LS V8 sport edition.
1. 1994 Lincoln town car w/5.0 transplant. Lol AWESOME car
2. 1994 Cadillac DeVille 4.9 non northstar. Big pimpin
3. 1996 Lincoln town car Diamond anniversary edition-you could adjust the tension on the steering wheel. 1-4 levels 1 being city and 4 being freeway. Really f-in cool lol
4. 2001 Lincoln LS V8 Sport- Miss that car...
5. 1994 BMW 325i 5spd- first manual car loved it! Major lemon though.
6. 08 tC....Not the best investment but by far the most reliable car I owned. Which at the time was the most important thing to me. Wish I would have bought the Z now.

Came from a 2005 SE-R spec-V.
I loved that car but I had a little boy on the way and had to trade out the small and get something a little bigger for the child seat.
I also sold my 91 SE-R for a 96 avalon because I couldn't put my son in the SE-R(nor was it safe enough to put him in). She was the stripped down autocrosser with no rear belts in it. I miss that girl.
