Talking what kinda cars did/do your parents have??

jsut thought this might be interesting

my dad HAD a 69 GTO with the engine with more horse power, I can't rember what one it was.. I feel like a goon
then my parents had a beetle when I was born and a whole bunch of other cars (can't rember)

now they have
a 2002 accord, a 1986 vanden plas jaguar (looove that car black all cromed and other goodies and goes like stink once ya get going..) a 198 something for pickup (for going to work) and my brother has my grandparents old buick..

-1972 GMC Sprint - green w/350
-1994 Camry - Burgandy w/ a special TRD body kit, exhaust and wheels and it was a a 5spd.

Mom drives a 98 Oldsmobile Intrigue, dad drives a Toyota Pickup, but the weekend car is the 1986 Vette Convertible, 4+3speed manual transmission with only 23,000 miles on it. His favorite car other than the Vette was his 1970 Cuda, color Purple Rage.

My dad has an (get this) 84 Buick Skyhawk, named Cockaroach. But he never drives it, because he's driving my mom's 98 Sebring LXi.

My mom drives a 2002 Mustang, POS car....and my mom's boyfriend's driving a 97 Rodeo.

I used to have a Dodge Dynasty and a Nissan Frontier.
