The Car that I still have and is for sale. 1970 Chevy Chevelle. I am thinking of getting a MK4 Supra or going 2jzgte in my GS400.
1992 Twin Turbo which I sold and I do miss the car espically on open freeway.

very nice mk3 w/ 1jz; most mk3 has 7m.
I came from a '00 Toyota Corolla VE...it has no power anything except for steering and braking. That thing runs out of traction easily in the rain, and it only has 3 gears to play around with. I wish that could have been an auto apu+++++++++++++++ supra w/ th400 that does 8 sec flat on the dragstrip, but that was not the case. I also killed a stock Civic DX in that car, and smoked my friend's 1986 Toyota Corolla SR5 (AE85), but after he got the 20valver swap, everything turned against me =(.
I sold it to a hot latina girl who moved from Texas to socal for school. Too bad she's jailbait, otherwise I would totally ask her out. Maybe when she goes to college and I'm a 3rd year, that would work just fine. Afterall, I am an equal oppertunity employer.
Anyways, it was a tough battle between a '92 5spd Lexus sc300 w/ 1jz, or a '01 Lexus gs300. I wanted to get the sc300, but then insurance would run even higher, and I enjoy building a stock car more than just buying an already tuned car. The GS is also newer, which means less minor problems.

This is what I traded in... a '00 Honda S2000. I miss this car soooo much!
I needed something more practical and something that would save my driving record (I need it for my job).
