I should scan in the picture I have of it.... but I don't think I have pictures of it in it's Rustoleum blue beauty. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Frederick, Maryland | | I was able to get by with public transportation and bicycling untill i was 23 (4 years ago). I needed a car ASAP, so i got a Plymouth Acclaim off craigslist for $400. Here's a google immage... but mine was a '91 as well: 
It lasted 5 months before i was rear-ended by a dude w/o insurance. 
I spent another 2 and a half years getting by with a bicycle and scooter... until 2 years ago, when i picked up my current ride, a '95 Honda Civic. Love that car!!

I had a white version of a '92 or '93, I think. Drove well, but at ~80k miles, there was a short somewhere in the electrical system and it would completely shut off while driving, which was kinda freaky. Then it wouldn't restart. My mom had a Plymouth van that did about the same stuff.
Was still broke, so it got replaced by a Neon, which didn't have the electrical problems, but was still kinda junky and the paint peeled every time it rained. |
