I sold my factory ordered blue 1995 Mustang GT of 11 years to get my 2006 MCS. Needed to have something a bit more practical with kids, and also easier to drive in winter.

Before that was a 1990 Cavalier Z24, and a 1978 Mercury Cougar with a 351M.

I drove 2 or 3 M coupes before I picked up the e92 M3. Awesome cars.

The s54 is truly a great engine, but it doesn't sound very nice. It's very raspy, even with a nice exhaust it still doesnt have the growl a lot of other inline 6's have. It really is a raw car though.

Before I had purchased my Mini I was driving an '04 Civic Si hatchback.
