Wow, I have a lot in common with Wendell. My first car was a Gran Torino Super Sport. Starsky and Hutch stole the idea. But, my second car in 1978 was the beautiful blue, only two years old, Datsun (yes Datsun) 280Z. Still the best car I ever drove. And, it was completely (well whatever Paul would say)...Had everything. Killer sound system, dual exhaust, straight six fuel injection with solid brushed aluminum rims. It had Michelin racing tires rated to 135 mph, and there was a back road to Gainesville, FL where the only thing keeping you from that speed were the Highway Patrol. But, I did it anyway. I also had my first girlfriend when I had that care. And, then I had Honda Preludes. Those were nice cars.
