1. 1976 Chrysler Cordoba (yes, it had Corinthian leather)
2. 1984 Plymouth Turismo 2.2
3. 1982 Olds Cutlass (big POS)
4. 1981 Dodge Mirada (3400 lbs and 90 hp, what a combo)
5. 1994 Dodge Shadow ES
6. 1995 Dodge Ram
7. 1990 Dodge Spirit
8. 1972 Plymouth Satellite
9. 1991 Chevy Camaro (approx 400 hp)
10. 1973 Dodge Challenger
11. 1973.5 Porsche 911T
12. 1975 Chevy Corvette (bought for wife)
13. 1970 Plymouth Belvedere (440cid)
14. 1971 Porsche 911T
15. 1989 Honda Prelude (beater, but fun)
16. 1979 Chevy Camaro Z28
17. 1983 Porsche 928S

This was fun, I haven't thought about some of these cars in years (some I wish I forgot).
