1964 red MGB - bought used, my college car, great ride but a rust bucket and a mechanical nightmare and them damn SU carbs, 4 speed manual

1990 red Ford Probe LX with a 3.0 L "Vulcan" V6 engine, not really in the "sports car" class, 5 speed manual, quick but way too much body roll in the corners. Drove it for 8 years and then passed down to my son.

Had my eye on a Miata for many years until I test drove a FR-S in 2013. Found a red (must have a thing for red) pre-owned certified used 2013 in March 2014. It was advertised as a manual but was an auto. Best auto I have driven.


Damn...I knew that I forgot something. I totally forgot to get rid of the MGB when I bought this new black car! That piece of shit has been haunting me since 1978.
