What did you guys drive before your 240? Or whatever your current DD is....

I drove a Pontiac =( ... Oh well...it was my first car from my dad. My 2nd car was an 1995 Eclipse GST. Pretty fun car to drive but a PITA to maintain, every other day you are replacing something on it =(

91 Integra, with no heating or A/C or power steering FML...haha

Zero_SX · 02-13-2009, 02:28 AM

The only cars i've ever owned were 240's. After I sold one, my dad needed to 'borrow' the money. I drove his neon in return until I saved up to buy another 240. That neon was bS!!

unfuxwitable · 02-13-2009, 02:30 AM

karl wasabi · 02-13-2009, 02:31 AM

I drove a Ford Aerostar for a few months before I got my 240. Then everytime I would wreck my 240 I would drive that damn van again. It was like a constant reminder to not wreck the 240.

Now my S13 is a track car, and I drive a BMW 325is as my daily... =)
