If your car is over 10 years old, find an article about it from a major automotive publication and share it in this post!

Here's mine. I've got a '97 though, but it's pretty much the same.

It seems to have beat a M45. I actually would prefer the M45.

http://www.motortrend.com/classic/roadte… Pretty much the same MR2 except mine has a stupidly rare leather interior

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/suvs…

318ti but mines a '99 which means it has the 1.9 M44, a canvas folding roof, wider wheels and better suspension

Not the most exciting thing here, but a sienna it is. C&D tested the pre vvti 190hp, mine is the 2001 vvti 210hp, and that 9.9 0 to 60 is absolute bs.

The only difference is that mine is a 2003 model. Also, I don't have the Sport package.

I think being 10 years old exactly is close enough, especially being that it's November. Here's a little comparison test, I've got the GTO.

The next year, there was a great Motor Trend comparison between the LS2 GTO, and the updated 05 Mustang GT. The GTO trounced the Mustang in every way, but the Mustang "won" because it had their "Gotta Have It" points.
By "great", I mean kinda stupid.

Mine's a 98 (previous generation) so this doesn't really count. But I always found this really entertaining:

I don't have the sport coupe, but I think this is as good as we're going to get. 03 civic coupe vs 03 Cavalier. Guess which is faster? The Cavalier. WORD!
