84 Dodge colt
Never raced it but I'm estimating it got at least 80WHP and I could probably do a 17 second 1/4 mile in it. Yea that thing was a beast.
I then stepped up to a lightning quick 87 toyota 4x4 pickup with the ever powerful 22r 4 cyl. Yea, I was impressing the women in that one.
Then I got a little crazy and picked up a 75 280Z. This car was actually pretty quick back in the day. Now it's burning oil like it was built to. It handles like a go cart though with the after market suspension parts I put on it.
Ahh, and now my Subaru WRX. The most comfortable ride I've ever owned even with the suspension mods...

[QUOTE=mbquarts]Did you happen to work at the concord mitsu dealership or know a guy named Ken from pittsburg? Ken had a 91 VR-4 as well, and I know the VR-4 guys tend to know eachother!

Nope i don't know Ken...but your right, there aren't very many VR-4s around.
