Lol at least you got keys with your first car! My first 2, including the CRX, have no keys.

No keys? Did you steal those cars?

My list-

'58 VW bug (36 hp)
'68 Triumph Spitfire (English POS, put me off of English cars)
'68 VW bug (delusions of Porsche-dom)
'66 Mustang coupe (200 ci six cylinder, what was I thinking?)
'83 VW Cabriolet (first car bought new. I called this car "Jail Bait" because thieves could not resist steling the crappy radios, keying the paint, etc.)
'85 Dodge Diplomat (ex-CHP. No body f*cked with a car that looked like it was on stake out)
'83 Toyota Corolla (hand me down from wife. It got stolen, otherwise I woudl still own it)
'88 Civic LX (bought used, best car I ever owned. I never should have sold it)
'87 CRX Si (still own it)
'90 Accord LX (hand me down from wife, second best car I have owned)
'02 Toyota Camry (I HATED this car. My wife bought it, she gave it to me and I traded it for the '03 Accord all within four months)
'03 Accord LX (still own it)

I am not "in love" with my current '03 Accord. If I could buy a four door Civic with 150hp, new off the dealer's lot, I trade it in a New York Minute.

Lol..Of course not.

The Tempo, my Grandma' had the keys.

CRX sat in the desert for about 10 years. Owner misplaced the key, but I've got the title and everything on it, and it's in my name.

--1965 Chevrolet Corvair

for some reason i really like Corvairs. Good looking, interesting engine, and you can even Turbo them

[1g Supremacy]

Or you can pull that odd little engine and put it in a VW and make a badass drag car.

I could swear I'm forgetting some. Most of them ended up in the junkyard. For a long time I dated a guy who worked in a auction yard, so I got to go try out cars before they would come up for auction. If they were good, I would go bid on them and get them for a steal.

Some of these overlap. (Like I owned the Maverick for 6 years, it was just dead reliable, and fast to boot! But I'm down to just one car, though I am looking for a good 84-85 CRX or maybe a Miata for STS2 competition for next year. )

It was a really cool car and it was much better than it got credit for being. It handled good, rode good, lots of cabin and trunk space, flat floor, and it got unusually good gas mileage for a 60's car. Unfortunately it was just too different and too far ahead of its time. I could still kick Ralph Nader in the nuts for killing its future just so he could make a name for himself. Especially since 1) there were many cars that handled worse and were more likely to spin or flip over, like the VW Beetle, Triumph Spitfire, ANY truck or van, etc., and 2) they had already fixed the handling problem by late '62/early '63, and the new design in '65 handled even better than that. The only things I didn't like about it were that it threw lots of fan belts, and you SHOULD NOT lift throttle in a turn. I've driven a turbo Spyder and they went like stink. :thumbup: for Chevy's redheaded stepchild!
