What got me into cars was a free yellow-box copy of Auto Mart when the C6 ZR1 first was announced.

Visited the box every week after that, and just got in deeper and deeper. Before that I liked cars, and had a feirce GM loyalty, but I wasn’t terribly bothered with facts and figures and couldn’t be bothered following them up.

LOL That’s why I didn’t listen to it before posting. Makes mine bleed too!

It's one of the cars that helped me. 993 Turbo and the Diablo SV really started it.

Not a bad car to get you into the hobby

The 996 Gurbo actually got me going as well as the Lamborghini. Some people hate it but I love the looks and the speed...

I feel you. From an old post I made:

Sometime in the 90's, when I was a youth, me and my moms were going to the store. On the way we say a bright blue viper with white stripes. I had no idea it was a Viper at the time. But at the store I asked to get a car magazine and she agreed.

Literally seeing a Viper sparked my love cars ….

Definitely one of the cars that got me into cars. Especially the LP640. Finding out about the one sided oil cooler deploying at certain temperatures was one of the coolest things I learned at the time. Other cars for me were the e46 M3, SLR and CLK AMG Black Series.

The car that really got me into cars:

And the truck that got me into trucks and surfing: me and my pops circa 1987:

After the Marine Corps, my pops owned and operated a body and detail shop in Memphis, TN this only furhter fueled my love for car.

These have aged remarkably well(especially the early ones). The interior is shite compared to the newer Lamborghinis though. And they are noy very good to drive(ive driven an early e-gear one...im sure the SV or a manual one would be better). The funny thing is that they feel remarkably similar to a Countach or Diablo.

That’s a nice truck. A good ol’ Toyota. That 928 though is just so clean

The 1988 Pontiac Firebird. And no, I didn’t see it on Knight Rider first. I actually had a cousin who owned it. He also sold it & the ONLY reason I couldn’t stop him from selling it was because I was 8 years old.

I had no money to buy it from him & I wasn’t strong enough to push the car back up his drive way to prevent him from leaving. :(

You’re right, I do have too many levels, time to lose some. I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful, I love the 80s.
