      michael o'mahony parents always know a lot more than they let on and let you get away with a lot more than they want you to know. I thought my parents had no idea I smoked weed for months until one day they confronted me and told me they were worried about the fact that I was coming home almost every day with red eyes and smelling like weed.

    I remember getting my first car, a 2000 mustang. I took it out on the highway and was clocked going 110mph. The cop asked me why I was going so fast and I replied "I just got the car, I wanted to open the throttle, I don't plan on ever doing this again." The cop made me promise him about what I've said was the truth and let me off. I've never gone above 75 since then.

    That was a really awesome story to hear. Reminds me a lot of my 1st car. I had a 1990 Volvo 740 Turbo that, in a lot of ways is actually pretty similar to that Mitsubishi. Both are Sedans, neither are really sporty looking, both are quicker than they appear and both are really fun to drive. I loved that car to death. Sadly I was forced to sell my Volvo earlier this year when I lost my home and couldn't afford to take it with me. I still have the License Plate number and hopefully I can track it down one day and can rebuy it from the people I sold it to. Because if I had the money, I would do exactly what this guy did and fully restore it.

    My “let’s go see how fast we can go in this car” story happened when I was 16, the second night I had my license, in my 1990 Mazda Miata. I was restricted to driving in just the neighborhood, per my parents. Long story short, my buddy and I ended up on this perfectly straight road out in the county, topping out at 116 mph. Didn’t get pulled, didn’t get in trouble. 6 years later, I still haven’t told them. When they’ve asked how fast I’ve gotten the Miata up to, I just reply “above 90.” And I still have that little red car.

    My best friend Xavier, he was a big rebel but one night, he took it too far.
    His parents were asleep and he rolled the car down the street and started it where nobody could hear. He drove onto the local highway with a bunch of friends I didn't know and he was clocked doing 180 km/h in a 90 zone. He was caught by the cops and dropped his friends off and said "goodbye". This was the last chance anyone would see him ever again. He drove off and t boned a truck and was.. killed.. immediately. As soon as I found out, I.. just thought it was all over and I hated looking at cars for a few weeks, but I knew that I could never get over my love for cars. It was one of the many reasons we were friends.

    As I grew up I always heard the cool stories from my dad, uncles and their friends about their first cars and how one of their biggest regrets was selling or trading them in back in the day. So when i got a 91 z28 in back in 93' , I decided I would keep it as long as I could and try to take care of it. Still have it and have no regrets. I even got to take it out on the racetrack last summer! Might not be the coolest car around but every time I drive it I feel like a kid again.

    I love this story because my dad bought a 98 civic ex off the lot in December of 97. Before I was born. And I spent my entire life in that car, so many memories. I learned stick in that car, and when I turned 16, my dad gave it to me. I went on to do simple modifications, but the car has been a part of my heart for my entire life. It recently was hit by a stray semi tire on the highway and it ripped off the front and rear bumpers, causing a crack in the quarter panel, causing the first and only piece of rust on the entire car. I parked it and bought an 05 sti, and no matter what, I cannot bring myself to sell that car. This video makes me never want to get rid of it.
