Hiya,

I was able to find pics of my old cars...

They are a:

1980 Ford Fiesta S (an S package that was affordable). My first car. Bought used in 1981 for $4100. In the end, it was free of it's air pump and had a new header and Koni's. Sold to a cop and I'm sure it's long gone by now. Had to use Heet in the winter to prevent carb icing. Slamming the doors made a great ringing sound. Speedo stopped at 85mph.

1986 Isuzu Impulse Turbo (bought in '87 for $8500). A great looking Giugiaro design, covering up crappy GM guts. The only thing that kept working was the actual turbocharger. The car was stolen in BH on Olympic Blvd and parted out (an Isuzu?? Only in Los Angeles...). The pic below is post-auto theft (complete loss).

1992 Mazda Miata ($14,000). I miss this one. It was a B package car with LSD and ABS. A death trap by today's standards, with one airbag and no steel reinforcing the doors... It later had a SS roll bar, Tokiko shocks, Jackson intake, and the BBS wheels from the special edition. A great car, but sold when we moved East.

1997 M3, Cosmos Black ($40,000). After 10 years, it was time for a change, but I loved this car. I sold it to my nephew on the proviso that I can buy it back when he wants to eventually sell it. Sharked, Dinan/Koni suspension, Celis projector lenses. It sure looks nice without the Bangle influence and the proportions from front to back look a lot better than the new M3, which seems a bit huge. Drove it in the snow without problems...

Enjoy the pix!

Jakeman- those are cool pix. I remember a rented Fiesta in the UK back in 90s, fun to blast around once I got acclimated to the rhd. I believe Ford sold them in EU for a decade or more after discontinuing US sales. Giugiaro for the masses--Impulse had some of the cleanest lines of its era, probably best looking hatchback ever.

 

 

Thanks! Here are some pix from the Ferrari showroom adjoining the factory, circa 1992...cars I didn't own!
