Welcome to my Hotrod Page I'm 39 years old and live in Mississauga Ontario. I have owned a lot of fast cars, but I finally picked up my ultimate dream machine, a 1998 Corvette coupe, on August 7, 2004. It is truly the most fun car I've ever owned, without a doubt!

My wife has a 2000 Honda Civic EX sedan which we took delivery of on Oct 26/99. It is Clover Green Pearl with automatic, ABS, cruise, air, power windows, power locks and heated power mirrors. It's no hot rod by any stretch of the imagination, but I felt that in it's price range, there is no other choice that even comes close in reliability and quality control as the Civic.
