Default Why did you choose YOUR car...?

Post your story on why you chose or forced into your car that you currently drive/own/mod.

Car: 1990 Grand Prix Turbo
First Car.

Reason: I always liked the way the 89-96 Grand Prix's looked. I couldn't afford anything with a decent V8 or a newer import, so I went looking at cars with V6's.

I came across my car on the corner of a used car lot. KB retail was at 2600. Dealer wanted 3500. Got it for 2500. It had a bad battery from sitting for long periods of time, so the dealer thought he was selling us a beat car, unknown to him.

It was red, had leather interior, sunroof, and power options. Was also boosted, which was a plus.

Had it for about 2 years now and still kickin'. I like it.

02' EX-V6: I wanted a reliable, comfortable daily driver that had a nice sounding engine with a little push.
