Boy do I miss this car - The first car I ever put on the road, and my first Mopar - 97 Dodge Avenger - 2.0L DOHC w/ a 5 speed, and of course, tons of lights!

That was a nice looking car you had.... and I thought I liked lights!!!

In my life owning over 300 cars; my first MOPAR was a Dodge Coronet 440 ~ this was NOT the engine size, rather the model of the car. I used to live in upstate NY and EVERY October, I'd buy a weather beater and bought this one for $400. It was pretty nice for the price ~ two door, 318, floor mounted auto, mag wheels; drove it all winter and sold in the spring.

The weird thing with this car, and I'm NO mechanic, was that the distributor was 180 degrees out of wack ~ was told that the timing chain was NOT installed right. Never messed with it as it ran OK ~LOL~

This IS one of the very few cars I never took a picture of.....

When I got my Mag SRT; my wife had actually found this car sitting on a lot for over a year ~ dealer demo ~ with 1,700 miles when I got it. I was acturally looking for a Mustang GT at the time ~ the new Camaros were NOT out yet!
After getting it; got my wife the SXT and then two more 05 Hemis....
