I'll always remember skipping school with my dad to go look at an '87 5-speed Turbo I saw in Autofinder the night before for $1200... and talking the guy down to $900 cause the ad said it was a 5 speed but it was actually an auto haha.

The 4-hour drive home was unbelievable, and it was fun having the coolest car on campus for a few months ... until the BHG incident.

Zipping / drifting in the parking garages at 2am

Sanding, body work and paint ... on and off, ended up taking just under a year cause of work and school :)

Also, beating this pretty badass Monte Carlo SS was fun. Beating my friend's Civic every time was better.

I have tons of memorable moments but my newest memorable monent was when I did a 360 at 40MPH in my 87 N/A Supra on the highway coming off of the ramp about two weeks ago:evil2:. That was crazy:naughty: and the thing is that once I did the 360 it was so nice and clean that I had the car facing forward and was ready to go:icon_bigg but my battery died:nono:(because it needed to be replaced) and then I had to go and find someone with cables:nono::biglaugh:.

Mine would have to be when i got the car. Ever since i was about 12 I saw my uncles supra (now my supra) sitting next to his house. He works at toyota, so he never did anyhting aftermarket to it. Every time i went to his house, i would run up to the car and just stare at it. Eventually, I started telling myself what i would do to the car. On my 16th birthday, my parents woke me up early (weekend) and made it sound like they were mad at me for something. They made me go outside and follow them into the garage, still acting pissed. My dad opened the garage door, and there she was! Just sitting in my garage with a big bow on top...lol. I was like a fat kid in a candy store, I jumped right in and sat there in it for about 20 mins. I didnt have my licence yet, but my uncle was about to dump the car, so they took it off his hands. Without a doubt, that is the most memorable moment with my Sup.


An incident like this is the way to my heart..... :) (Please forward to Mr. and Mrs. Jacobson....)
