My first car. Saved up for two years working weekends. The day I drove it off the lot I cried — actual tears. Candy apple red, 5.0 V8, and absolutely zero practicality. Perfect.
“Zero practicality. Maximum soul. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat.”
Sold to a 19-year-old who'd been saving for two years — exactly like I had. I made him promise to take care of her. He sent me a photo six months later. She looked perfect.
Drove it off the lot and pulled over two blocks away. Sat there for ten minutes just listening to the engine.
Took it to a local autocross event. Came last. Didn't care. The sound alone was worth the entry fee.
Drove from New York to Los Angeles in 4 days. 2,800 miles. The best road trip of my life.
Sold to a kid who'd been saving up for two years. I made him promise to take care of her.
Car guy since birth. Grew up in my dad's garage, now building my own legacy. Every car I've owned has a story — and I'm not done writing them.

The car that started it all. Dad drove this to every little league game, every school play, every family road trip. The AC never worked right but we never cared — windows down, radio up.
Mom's trusty Camry. She drove this to work every single day for five years. We called it 'The Silver Bullet'. It survived two fender benders and one very unfortunate parking garage incident.
Hired for our wedding day. Pulled up to the church in a Rolls-Royce Ghost — Midnight Sapphire, white ribbon on the bonnet. I'll never forget the look on her face when she saw it waiting outside. We only had it for six hours. It felt like a lifetime.
