1. 92 RS LO3/t5 w/3.42 posi. 1st car, still have it but with more mods!
2. 89 IROC 5.7/a4. Rear bumper was smashed all the way to the back seat but it ran so i got it for the 5.7 but never got it swapped. sold it to a guy who had a bad engine in an IROC. Must have been a really nice car before a drunk driver hit it.
3. 88 TA 305tpi/a4. Sold my 99 camaro to a friend for some cash and this TA. It was a fun car, a burnout machine and fastest top end car i've had so far. It had some rust and was an auto so i never got attached to it so I sold it to a friend who liked it.

I always see other 3rdgens i'd like to have but i keep telling myself that if i keep putting that money in my 92 i'll get over it.

Re: How many 3rd Gens have you owned?

Im on my Third one now and plan on making the list even bigger.

I received this one 2 years ago for my 16th birthday




That one didnt make it unfortunately.

About 6 months later I purchased this one and still own it today (contemplating selling it though). I removed the original engine from it and planned on swapping a 350 into it and making it my project/daily driver but that changed when I purchased this one

I am very happy with it as of now. But I really want to buy an Iroc or a 91/92 Z28 down the road and make a full on drag car out of it.
