About me and my passion for cars

I'm a fairly recent car enthusiast. Never had the $$ or time before. I'm getting into the "common man's" bracket: new, fun cars on a budget (less than $30k). I'm more of a gadget guy, but not in cars. Keep it simple and keep your eyes on the road. I'm not a fan of NASCAR at all (sorry to those that are). I like curves, left and right hand. Rally takes BA-11s. 90MPH through the trees? Someone started this on a drunken bet.

I just had my first muscle car (Challenger), but had to get rid of it due to a drastic change in locale. I now have the WRX and love the control. Eventually when things get settled, I'd like to get something I can strip to frame and rebuild from scratch.

My first car

'89 Grand Am (not my choice)

Car I wish I still had

Jeep Cherokee Sport, 2009 Dodge Challenger

My dream car

Audi R8, but I would settle for S4 or anything in between. DBS/DB9, I'd take one of those also.
