Sunbird Se — My first car. Got me started into the GM J body and thats pretty much all I've owned since then with a few exceptions. Learned a lot on this car and did a lot of work to it before i came to my sences and scraped it since the body was junk. Plus it was an auto and had the 2.slow. loved the front end tho.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros: Front end looked cool with the half hide away headlights

Cons: automatic, 2.slow, never saw the road

Loved It. — It didn't look like much, but it was a GT convertible, with sports-tuned suspension and 7.5'' wide tires. It stuck to the road and would do 130+ (personally tested to 130) even with the top down. Didn't have much room inside and didn't look all that great, but I didn't even notice while I was driving, too busy looking for 5-0. Had great throttle response and power. I do miss it, alot.

Pros: Fast, handled great, and a convertible.

Cons: Didn't look much like a sports car, but it did make it a better sleeper.
