My favourite car for some reason has been my very first Corolla, my 1977 KE30.
It was stock as a rock auto 3K, slow as hell, with a lot of body roll and wasn't in exceptional condition.
But I could leave it anywhere without worrying about it (even left it unlocked a few times), never gave me any problems, had a lot of fun driving past expensive cars setting off their alarms (straight through exhaust to resonator), scaring granny's with the sound, pulling up next to people with the AM radio blaring through the dash speaker lol
The girls always liked that too, they thought it was 'cute'...
I did some pretty stupid things in that car and only had one minor incident when I spun in the hills and loved a guard rail.
Pulled massive standstills smoking out my mates whole street, and shot little flames from the exhaust
Cheers, Ben.
