Like you, I drove a little car before getting the 4Runner. I now noticed other cars don't pull out in front of you. It was a 88 Acura Integra and I kept as a second car and just sold it last year. I had a option to buy another old car or keep it, see this thread.

I drove a 330 convertible with sport suspension before the 4R, very different ride and handling

My very first car was an 87 Celica GT Coupe, then a 89 Corolla DX. The car I drove right before the 4Runner was a 93 Celica GT

98 civic ex, great little car.

The 4Runner is my first "actual" car. I drove a 1999 Corolla LE before.

2000 cavalier before we bought the sr5 4runner (i am only 18)

80 Triumph TR7
87 VW Rabbit
90 Honda Prelude 4WS
96 Nissan Maxima SE
98 BMW M3 (still have)
04 Toyota 4Runner SE

A few bikes in between (about 7)

Northof49, thanks for the props. The SC was a an ASA kit running 6lbs of boost. It put about 250 to the wheels on a good day and ran pretty strong when it was cool out. Hot and humid sapped power pretty bad. The weak link was the shitty auto trans. Dumb to buy an auto BMW in the first place. It couldn't handle the extra torque and would throw a transmission light if you didn't drive it just so when you were getting on it. I assume you're talking about turboing a E36 M3 or maybe there's a kit for the E46s that's come out since I stopped hanging around E46Fanatics.com. I've seen some pretty badass E36 turbos putting crazy HP to the wheels, like 400+. I may buy one and boost it myself one day. Good luck with that project.

My last was an 88 Jetta GL, yes, fast cars! Still have the 82 Rabbit Convertable sitting in the shop awaiting the time when the arctic fun goes the h*** away so I can get to work restoring it. The backup car is an 86 mazda 626 I got for 200 bucks.

Have had:
79 Ford F150
79 Ford Bronco
85 Jetta
88 Jetta
82 Rabbit droptop
74 Dodge Roadrunner
74 Saab
and the first car was a 73 VW Dasher.

Next car: Another 4Runner so I don't have to fight the wife over this one all the time! (or another big Bronco...LOVE my Broncos!)

Here's a funny little video I took of my GS400 after I installed a high stall torque converter and exhaust.
