"OTHER" Rides....

My '90 Daytona, its basically a show/cruise-in car, fair weather driver:
My '92 Daytona, I was originally going to restore it, but I may have to let it go now that I'm into Monte Carlos. I may also use it as a daily driver or back up car, not sure yet:
'01 Tracker, my Monte was supposed to replace this. Its a good thing I didn't sell it yet, because my wife's Explorer broke down again. This is her new daily driver, at least for the time being. Both are sitting on 140,000 miles, the Tracker has only needed routine maintenance items, the Explorer has had almost everything fail at least once. The Explorer is going to be sold/traded now before I ever get rid of this:
No pics of the '02 Exploder, sorry.

My old DD- 99 GP GTP. Got it used with about 80k miles- sold it at about 115k miles. Mods included a basic 3.4" pulley setup- PLOG, 1.9 rockers, tune, etc etc- very fun for DD'ing. Kinda regret getting rid of it, but it did have a lot of minor irritating problems that I just didn't have the time or patience to mess with.
Next to my friend's goat:
Funny thing is, it went to an auction about 2 hours away, and ended up back at a small lot dealer 15 minutes from my house:
I put the old wheels/tires from my monte on there because the GP wheels were in mint shape, and I had just recently put brand new Goodyear Eagle GT's on it. The old wheels from the monte were a bit beat up, and the tires were worn out and super old. Kinda wanted to test drive it, but I didn't want to risk falling in love again and doing something stupid (ie buying it back after all the markups, lol)
New DD is an 07 GP GXP. Bought it used with about 4k miles on it, now has about 15k (2k of that being the cross country drive from IN to AZ). Only current mods are the K&N CAI, a DMH cutout in place of the resonator, and the tint. Satisfied for now- although I've been looking into an intake mani swap for awhile.

Trying to restart a GREAT post... NICE Gxp and a NICE Grand Prix...
a little update on my SI, after discussing magazines, my SI made it into the May 2011 issue of "Super Street" magazine under "reader's rides"! I had sent a few pictures of the Si with 6900 miles on the OD to the mag right after I picked up the car, I NEVER figured the car would ever be featured. It's quite an honor! I have a copy of the magazine and plan to get a few more to show and keep with the car. Now... If only I could find a way to have my Mustang featured somewhere... That's the car I put a TON into and have been trying to pimp and prostitute online, but with little success.

i like this thread a ton!
here's my old ram, as many people know, I lost it to a t-bone rollover accident, it's a shame, it was an amazing ride.
Had the 5.9L V8 Magnum. Easy Burnouts.
Mom got rearended in it the first time driving it.
Neglected Grand Prix that did it to me.
And another car I spend a lot of time in and driving.
My girlfriends 2005 Grand Prix. It's just standard, not GT or anything, its got the 3800 Series III in it, it's a fun little ride sometimes. Only thing i've done to this is waxing and cleaning for her, also I installed some multicolor LEDs inside for her so she can listen to her music in style ha.
