Okay way back in the day in my ultra cool mid engined 86 hp monster . notice the matching sunglasses and awesome track pants with the racing stripe .. i was cool ... .

thinking back the shirt could have possibly been tucked in my underwear too .. interesting to note I still have that same liscence Plate on my Audi ..

My first car!
1978 Celica hatchback with 22R engine.
5 speed with I think about 98 hp. I remember tell all my freinds "it's got intermittent wipers"
Awesome black vinyl interior, no AC which guaranteed a skin graft in the summer.
Good times. Loved that car. Still ran strong with 340k on it but sadly the body gave out.

Seriously +1 that is very interesting. You never know what people really do from cars and coffee! Thanks Greg. I take it the screen name Jumper comes from the airborne part.

Yes and the last part comes from completing all the requirements for earning the Airborne coin.
