Drats, I missed 1989 - the year of my first car, a bitchin blue cougar that died an early death because I didnt know dick about automatic transmissions.

so here is my second car - a 90 cavalier. 2.2 liters of 3 spd auto, pushrod, iron block badassery. 0 to sixty in the better part of an afternoon. I dubbed her "Cava-lazy"

(not mine, but it could play mine on tv)

Seriously, what is going on with the people in the background of this picture:

Is the one guy pushing the other guy as the girl rocks out? And why is the pushy guy half way done with shaving his face?

I graduated high school in 1990.

Oh the burnouts in front of the building and turfed lawn off of the faculty parking lot...

The building was sold a few years ago. It's now a condo complex

Ah, the year of my first car! Typical story: Paid for in cash, earned via the blood, sweat and tears method. 2.8 v6 engine, it was suffering from period-correct rack-and-pinion (?) steering rack problems when my wife and I decided to go minivan.

This isn't it, I don't have a picture of mine. This is a lighter shaded clone.

Ditto this. My grandfather often lamented the loss of this.
