14. 1993 Toyota 4 runner -bought it to replace 1st 4runner... Tranny died on that one too...
15. 2001 Lexus IS300 - Solar Yellow w/ 2-3" drop... Great head turner and very quick, but the damn thing wouldn't go over a crack in the pavement w/o scraping the frame - sold it when a set of car ramps collapsed under it, tearing the nose of the car off... missed me by inches... Kragen paid me some serious $$$ for that.
