Gen5 What car did you drive before the Camry?

I loved my Taurus SHO's 1989 v6 & 1998 v8

O.k. and my Mustang GT's 1996 & 1997

The 1991 SC Thunderbird 5-spd mod'ed 265 hp & 330 torque drift monster

Bought a Camry after I wrecked my 2002 Suzuki Esteem (intake,lowered,cat-back,215/40/17 rims, 2 -10" JVC sub's)

The Suzuki had a 1.8 16 valve (timing chain) 140hp stock the car weight 2100 pounds it flew after mod's it was my wife's car she hated it.

I drove a 1988 Accord, and not the fuel injected one. =/ But it was such a fun car minus the lack of power. Hehe.

B4 my Cam, I had a 06' F150 that was lifted. It was a gas whore, so I got rid of it. (that boosted my credit)...

Then we had a 2000 Explorer at the same time that we also got rid of because it was a hunk o' junk.

This is my first Toyo, and "I'm lovin' it"...
