1986 Buick Regal, came with a 307 (the slowest V8 ever produced!)
But I have to thank that car, otherwise I would have never been exposed to and appreciate the Grand Nationals like I do.

1995 Saturn SC2 5spd coupe here. Good old Plastic body panels, so it had zero dents on it. Paint was actually a nice color (minus the scratches here and there)... it was a black that would turn gold in the right sunlight. I loved it. Bought it for $1700 when I was 17, had a total of 138k miles then. Drove it for 6 or 7 months until around 143k miles when I blew the motor. I don't really miss the car. It was kinda a POS. Driving it home and being a n00b to stick at the time was effing hilarious though!
