I was at the assembly plant so often that I may have well seen your car being built.
Your armrest/console and overhead/visors were built right here in my town.

Ha, those visors with the built-in/slide down mirrors used to confuse the hell out of my friends, but I really liked that design.

Re: Your first car

The cutlas was my first car my first car that I purchased on my own was an RX7. We took the rotory motor and added a Holley 650 and some other stuff and it had around 240 HP. The car would fly. I could burn the tires at 55 mph shifting from 2nd to 3rd.
