For me it was simply getting my license that got me into cars. For me it was more about the driving than the cars though. My dad took me to an autox right after getting my license in an 85 Accord 5MT that handled like a boat. I had so much fun I knew I needed a sporty car. So after doing about 4 events I finally got my first car which was a 95 Integra GS-R. I was actually trying to find a DelSol VTEC (B16A) but settled for the Integra which I thought was ugly. In the end I was glad I got a B18C vs the completely torqueless B16A. I also went on a mission to find a good racing sim for the PC to fill the time between autox events. An autox friend gave me a wheel and pedals and I found Gran Prix Legends and and became obsessed with sim racing too.
