Wish I still had my first baby..1969 Chevy Nova SS 396 Coupe, four on the floor, 4.56 positraction, Holly 1050 cfm 4 barrel carb, Hooker headers, custom side exhaust, a lot of other engine mods I can't recall at the moment no badges except the SS, Black as the Devils Soul, and faster than anything I ever came across in the 1/4 mile....got about 5 mpg on 100+ octane leaded gas...which was less than 50 cents a gallon....God, I miss her!

Still, and all, the Genie Coupe is making me smile every time I tickle her

One of my first girlfriends had a car like yours when it was almost new...her daddy bought it for her...she was a flower child, I was a street racing maniac, so it didn't really work out....ironically, I survived my fast and furious lifestyle and even my enlistment in the Army and tour in Vietnam, and she was killed by a tractor trailer who rear ended her at a stop light....go figure...

1996 celica. Which I still have, trying to sell. Fell in love with the Genesis though and had to have, got the 2.0T manual.

Good for you Meg! Good taste too! Enjoy it!

2000 BMW 323i…while I do miss it, I could NOT be happier with its replacement!!

I still have my old car...but ever since i got the genesis she's been severely neglected....but I have a 97 Infiniti q45...man shes a beast...the genesis is new so I have nothing done to her yet, and its frustrating...i used to see all these GTI's and Civic Si's...pretty much any tuner car on the highway and blow them away with the 330 hp v8...tough times for my genesis right now

I read your intro post, and for 18, you sure started off right!

Youth will do what youth will do,
but as far as blowing guys away on the highway....
think that over....(see the Street Victory thread)

I used to do it many years ago, got away with some outrageous
shit, including high speed pursuit by the popo, and managed to
survive and not be caught...which is one reason i never go to the casino,
'cause my luck has been all used up....
