I don't think you can buy any new cars now, but you can buy used cars down there. Thanks for the support. I've been looking around for awhile, but never made an account until recently.

2001 join date checking in.
Like anything else in life, the cars we drive reflect the type of people we are at any given point in time.
1999-2002
My first car which got me through my final year in high school and my first two years in university. 1992 Integra LS.
2002-2012
This was the car that got me through the remainder of university and through my 20s. It was a great car - cheap to run, carried my stuff, and the women liked it. Lots of memories in this one and when I sold her last January, I felt empty for about a week. 1992 Integra GS-R.
2010-2011
I dreamed of owning one of these beauties in my 20s. After a breakup in 2010, I felt impulsive and scored a great deal on this car. It was the perfect car to close my 20s. Unfortunately, my affair was all too brief, but it was a lot of fun. 1989 BMW 325is.
2012-present
This was not the car I wanted at first, but it is entirely appropriate at this point in my life. It's a car that's decent on road trips, one the lady likes to ride in, and one that is perfectly respectable when pulling into the golf course parking lot. 2000 BMW 323ci. |

I have been on Revscene since November of 2000 and I have owned quite a few cars since I have joined.
Before I joined Revscene I owned these:
1971 Plum crazy purple Duster with a 340 6-pack
1974 5.0 litre Ford maverick
1970 Pontiac GTO with Ram Air IV heads
1979 Pontiac Grand Prix
1982 Honda Civic 4-door
1980 Ford Courier lowrider pick-up
After I joined Revscene:
1999-2001......1988 Honda Prelude Si AWS
2001-2004......1988 Honda Prelude Si AWS
2004-2005......1992 Nissan 240SX SE
2005-2005......1989 Mazda MX-6 turbo
2005-2006......1988 Toyota Tercel winter beater written off. I was nearly written off too!
2006-2009......1995 Lexus SC400
2007-2008.......1996 Honda Civic CX
2008-present......2003 Nissan 350Z
2008-2010......2003 Honda Civic DX-G
2010-2011......2005 Acura TSX
2011-2012......2003 Acura RSX Type S

There are a couple of cars that I missed but I never had a chance to snap a shot of them before I sold them.

I think I qualify as an old school member.
When I joined RS: .
1996 Honda Civic CX HB
Sometime in between:
2002 Suzuki SV650S
1995 Acura Integra LS
Presently:
2010 Honda Civic Si Sedan
Next?:
VW GTI MKVII DSG unless Subaru gives the WRX HB a dual-clutch tranny. Don't like the Mitsu Ralliart Sportback, and I believe it's discontinued anyway. Am I missing anything else that's a somewhat sporty dual-clutch hatchback?

Or maybe that was just a running joke...everything is vague after 2003 for me.
