83. I've driven three cars in my life, and I'll stick to imports thanks
My first car was an 88 Nissan Stanza, which was totaled at 186k. Other than that, no problems at all with that car.
Second car was a piece of shit 91 Ford Tempo, which was a coffin on wheels and in the shop at least twice a month. What an un-godly piece of fucking junk. End mileage...74k. I could literally go on for hours with all the things wrong with that hunk of junk, but why bother?
Third car was a Camry ( also an 88 ) that required some exhaust work to pass inspection but other than that, served me extremely well and never left me stranded. It was great on gas, too. Had to give it to a junk yard for $75 because most of the body ( and part of the floor ) had rusted out and the work needed to pass inspection exceeded twice the amount of the Kelly Blue Book value at that time. I realize the Ford was fairly old, but so were the other two.
