My previous car was my first car which I bought from my parents at 22 yrs old in 2002. It was a 92 Toyota Camry V6-Cranberry color. I sold it 1 1/2 years ago and bought my 2nd car which is a 2006 Maxima SE.

2008 G8 GT
2006 E55
2005 Viper SRT-10 81/100
1996 Viper GTS
1996 Viper GTS supercharged
1998 Viper RD/10
2005 C230
2005 Lexus GX470

1966 Biscayne (first car when 17) reinCARnated as 1500hp drag car
