Ooh the 2.3 Lima and the 3.0 Vulcan. A bit of trivia: the 3.0 Duratec was used to make Aston martin's v12! And that motor was originally a Porsche design.

Good thing they chose the Duratec, I'm pretty sure a Vulcan V24 still wouldn't make any real power :rofl:

Haha son#1 totaled an Eagle Talon and a turbo Dodge Neon SRT4 not once but twice and got two DUI's, a reckless driving and misc other tickets hence the reason he is back to driving the 92 Accord.  I won't let him near my Celica! Son #2's driving  record is spotless haha.

That reminds me I also owned a '90 Ford F150, a  '98 Dodge Intrepid and a '95 Olds Aurora

I will chime in with my original and unmolested 83 Celica GT with Sports Pkg Hatchback that I purchased new and just turned 200k. Lexus IS 250 and my garage queen also original and unmolested 1993 Acura Integra GSR that has been in the family since new and has 78k on it. For others, one I should have kept is a 1966 MGB. Sweet little sports car. How about a 1978 Plymouth Horizon, 1986 Pontiac and the one I really should have hung onto was a 1962 Mercury Comet S22. Figures, after I got rid of it, found out that it was only a two year production run with less than 15 thousand made. Hind site is always 20/20. As a side my fantasy car would be a 1966 Ferrari Berlinetta Lusso.
