    ok, so from the beginning

    1991 Honda civic LX 4 door

    my first car. loved it to death! i bought for 1200 with 213k sold for 1100 with absoultely no maintenance (except oil) and 250k. amazingly well kept car, like new paint/interior, clutch was awesome. nothing except two timing belts (not me) was changed on the car.

    1987 300zx
    first sports car. this is what i sold my civvy for and I wish I had it still. It had so many issues when i bought it, but noone could tell me better, I had to have it.

    so first day I bought it. gas gauge was broke and looked like it said 1/2 full (read: nice walk to a gas station)

    3 days later tune up (350$) ran awesome for about 2 weeks then the alternator went followed by the battery and the distributor
    so all this gets replaced so no engine problems at this point. just leaky t-tops,leaky a/c core,brakes,tires,suspension,body dmg,none of this mattered a whole lot as I was still doing 143 down 80 every day on bald tires (i know, idiot).so i ended up paying around 4500 and the engine seized (i checked the oil the day before it was fine) it must have been a leak or something or the fact that it threw a rod first. then it sat at this shop for like 3 days, my dad calls me up and hes like "you need to go pick your stuff up from the shop" I was like "what??". "Oh i signed the title over to them" HOLY ***** I WANTED TO KILL HIM! so now i have spent 4500 to get it to where it is now and he signs the title over, needless to say i needed a new car

    03 Pontiac "SunFlamer"

    my parents came homeand they're like, come outside. so we walk out and there in the driveway sits an automatic 2003 sunflamer. I tell them thanks and take it for a drive, its alright. certainly not the Z so i drive this for like 3 months and some guy in a mercedes side swipes me and totals it (9k damage)

    1991 Mazda MX-6

    loved this car, power nothing (less **** to break), no interior lighting cept gauges. I ran into a Kia Sedona minivan in this, they were stopped int he middle of a blind turn. no brake lights or turn sigs... (another totaled car)

    1990 honda civic DX

    thinking that my first civvy was a good representation of reliability i bought this... problems out the ***.. didn't spend **** on it. drove it for like 20k miles and junk'd it

    1993 Honda civic LX 4dr

    current car, no problems yet *knock on wood* all it needed was tires hopefully it will not have the same fate as my others...
    RIP 1993 civic sedan
    RIP 1993 civic Del Sol

    1999 C 280 Sport
    Damn ignition coil went out on my 1300 mile drive from Chicago to San Antonio. Had to drive it with a screwed up ignition coil for 250 miles. Positive side is that roadside fixed it in the parking lot of my hotel in Tulsa. Got it home and took it to the dealer for three days while they fixed it, my busted fuel gauge, and my screwed up LCD on my HVAC control unit. Other than that it's a great and fun car to drive.

    1995 C 280 (on it's way out)
    Cranky as hell when you don't drive it. Start it up after not driving it for a couple days and it idles like **** until you rev it a couple times. Genius engineers at MB made the engine harness out of biodegradable material so when it goes out you're out $2000+. Head gasket likes to blow and that's about $2000+ also. Neither of which I've had to do so far, so when it gets sold, I won't have to worry. The car is EXTREMELY picky about the fuel you put in it, you screw up and put 87 octane in it, it dies. Even with premium, it HATES Shell gasoline. Freakin' weird! Transmission is vaccum controlled so you can forget about acceleration.
