'80 celica. Very enjoyable to drive. Became an import guy as a result - most of the domestic sporty cars out there (I got my license in 1986) were more of the muscle variety - all motor, no handling. I drove that car pretty hard and it lasted for about 4 years. The sunroof was a nice touch: females seemed to like the breeze... =)


I almost got a 78 Firebird (8-cyl) but the engine need too much work. I'm not a big fan of domestic cars, but wonder if that would've changed had I gotten that 'bird...
