1990 Fiat Uno Turbo. ......it was fun to drive and could go close to 120mph on the Autobahn.
'66 VW Beetle. I'll have you know it had a 1300 cc engine and could do 60 mph downhill with a stiff tailwind.
My first car was a 1975 VW RabbitLooked like this except it was rusty (Image removed from quote.)

Of course driving at night in the fog was fun....

Of course driving at night in the fog was fun....Yup, last year of the 6V Bugs. Temps below 25F usually meant a push start. We were newly married and my wife still remembers that scenario (not fondly). When our eldest daughter was about 2 my wife was driving to the store with her in the car. Stopped at a stop sign and when she let out the clutch to start out again the clutch plate disintegrated. No go. Our daughter's comment was "Bad Herbie".
Some of you had some pretty cool cars!I thought my Firebird was a cool car, especially for my first, but some of the machines you guys had really outclass my old Pontiac!So far though, Pontiac is still the brand I have had the most, at three. I have had two Jeeps and two VW's, and a GM, which was in reality a rebranded Suzuki. My next one will likely be a Ford, so Pontiac still rules, and will probably gain ground (despite being out of business) since I hope someday to get a Solstice.(Image removed from quote.)Def
