2013 Scion FR-S. Every mod done I installed and learned how to do myself. Lots of fun, but lacking power drastically. Definitely a head turner. Driving a 2015 Corolla LE Eco right now while I save up for a '17-'18 GT Premium.

^Nice Rex! I have a 03 Z1000 with a 636 front end on it. Kinda similar. I always wanted a zrx but just don't see many very clean around here.
Thanks, the only negative with that bike was no Fuel Injection.

That is a real beauty. Love the color

Define "old car"....

The first car I bought myself, on my own, as a junior in high school in August of 1986, was my '67 Mercury Cougar which I still own. It's technically "old". :D
My brother had a 68' Cougar XR7 with a 390 ci 4-speed in that same color. That was one fast car in the day.

I traded in my 2009 C63 AMG Mercedes 507hp on my Roush supercharged GT! It doesn't match up in technology and luxury. But it's significantly faster, alot more fun to drive, and i fear breaking things much less. LOL

2018 EB Prem. w/PP and 94 Mustang Cobra
Prior to my 2016 EB:

2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T / Nordeschlief Gray Ext / Black Cloth int - it was traded in for the Mustang EB :). Bought the Gen new off of the showroom floor.

That was a fun car - especially with factory 3.91 rear gearing and the shell being more rigid than a BMW M3... It was fun in twisties and on straight highway. Never any issues in the 5 yrs of ownership. Just changed oil (free lifetime oil changes from Dealer). Only had to put out of pocket for brakes, air filters, cabin air filters and 1 set of tires.

My other vehicle that sits in the garage is my 94 Cobra - it's SVT Build # 0013 out of 5,009 coupes that were built in 1994. Mine is the lowest surviving SVT build for the 1994 production run and I've done lots of exhaustive research too.

I take it out to car shows and its won its fair share of trophies/plaques (never expect to win, we just go for fun and to meet new folks). I always get compliments on it. A few years back, it was one of several Mustangs chosen for a NITTO tire ad campaign that ran in several Mustang magazines. The ad was on inside covers, center folds and back covers. I sill have the emails, the mags and also a full size 24x30 poster of the actual ad that NITTO sent all selected owners.

I've owned 19 Mustangs to date - listen em in another thread that's floating around on here, not to mention several other vehicles.
