1991 Cheverolet Lumina Z34 , 3.4 V6 DOHc 24 valve - 215hp

It was quite an interesting experience learning 5spd in the winter with that car

That thing was fast at the time 5 years ago

Technically got the basics and tyed on an 88 Hyundai something or other my driving instructor had. DIdn't drive stick for like 2 years and then got my Z24 in December. So really I retaught myself on that car. Lets just say trying to find a parking spot around Christmas with a stick car and still learning how was not fun.

1984 Nissan Pulsar...
Wondering if there are still any of those cars around...

I was sweating like crazy of putting it into reverse gear.
