Hey... you forgot your Cobalt. :D

I'll never forget that trusty Cobalt. Never! What about you, Rick? Will you throw your beloved, Maldives blue, souped up minivan by the wayside like so much common trash?

I saw a Cobolt today. It overtook me as I drove my car in awe :shock: - I thought you were overtaking me in that FAST car.

It wasn't baby blue before you painted it and souped it up:

had this




traded it for a 01 Z3
traded that for this



mess with this a little from time to time





but this is my favorite

 
Hmm, have to remember...

1) '77 Chevy Caprice Classic (talk about a gas guzzling boat!)
2) '86 Pontiac Grand Am
3) '90 Ford Thunderbird
4) '94 Isuzu Pickup
5) '97 Ford Mondeo Wagon
5) '03 MINI Cooper S
6) '06 Chevy Colorado
7) '06 Z4M Roadster

I know that the Mondeo seems out of place, but I was living in Sicily at the time and needed a good beater car to get around in and haul the groceries.

Cheers!

AlanL, how did you like your S2000 compared to your Z?

The S2k was a lot of pure raw fun, but that raw part is best savored out on a track where you can rev the engine up into the RPM range it requires. It is actually slower than the Z4 but much more engaging to drive when you are driving it at it's limits.

Definitely not a refined vehicle like the Z4 for street driving and quite noisy at freeway speeds. I had a hard top for mine and did add quite a bit of sound deadening material to it but when I took a sound pressure meter out on the freeway one day I measured 90db in the cabin at 70mph with the stereo off.

I am definitely a happy camper for having acquired the Zed instead as it is a much better fit for me out on the streets.

How sweet your fav is. Very inspiring in deed. What years did you fly, or do you still. I have seen them soooooo many times. :thumbsup:
 
I've only ever owned two vehicles prior to my Z that I bought in March of this year. I still have one of them, my old Silverado 88.

Pics of it here: 100_1442.jpg

The other was an old 1977 5-speed Toyota pick-up truck. I loved that little thing. Talk about gas milage!
I traded it in for this Silverado which is my puller, grocery shopper etc. My Z is strickly for my pleasure. :play:
