A 1948 Nash. I doubt you youngsters have ever heard of one. Three speed with a column shift, light dimmer switch on the floor next to the clutch and a radio. It's redeeming feature for a young high school guy was the reclining seats which saw occasional use on a secluded back road. The top of the back seat was hinged so I could have a couple of guys in the trunk when we went to the drive in movie and they didn't have to open the trunk lid to get into the car, just flipped the seat up and crawled in. This was in 1954 and 55.

that guy beats everyone! in 1989 at the age of 18 i got grandmas '79 ford mustang....sound cool? not really. it was a box on wheels and a few years later the tranny locked into 1st and couldn't get it out.

 

1984 VW Rabbit GTI.

EDIT: Forgot to include the 'bad'.

I bought the car in 1993 from my older brother.
The car was on its 3rd engine.
Engine Management Control unit was barely functional.
Had an alarm that didn't work...then it would randomly.
Car was hit on all 4 sides.
Passenger door bondo fell off in one big chunk.
Dash board was broken due to radio thefts - yes, that's plural.
3 keys - one for ignition/trunk, one for driver's door, one for passenger door.
Vandals keyed the car pretty bad (anarchy symbol on hood, along both sides)

 

1992 Grand Am 4cyl. Probably had about 45WHP total

Hand me down 99 Expedition.
I loved that thing and of course it got the pimp treatment...
Got all of my ricing out of my system with that one; ebay CAI, $9 chip, BADASS system (**** was real loud), 20 inch wheels (way too small).
Then my dumbass flipped it... lesson learned.
God i wish i had that car back but im sure everyone is that way with their first cars no matter how shitty.

 

Brown 1981 Mazda GLC Station Wagon in 2000. Drove that bad boy through HS and its still kicking.

 

94 eg SI hatchback!

 

1994 short wide bed chevy v6 pickup reg cab. Dad payed for it cost 3500 bucks. I got a job and put 20's stereo and all billet inside made it pretty sweet truck.

 

I don't think I had a **** car when I was 16. I worked my **** off for 3 summers helping out a custom home builder doing most of the grunt work and bought a almost perfect condition 94 chevy s10. I had one of the nicer cars in HS except for a couple rich kids that had a corvette and a custom truck. Oh yeah, I'm 23 now.

 

My first car is a 02 rsx-s, and i still have it =)

 

some of you are lucky to get a car at 16. I had to wait for my mom to get off work at 6pm just to borrow her car until 10pm. lol. The good ole days.

 

1987 mercury cougar, center console caught on fire so the windows wouldnt go down and the ac didnt work and the vents would never shut off....IN FLORIDA!!

 

94 civic hatchback at 16

 

1955 Ford Fairlane.

 

1993 Toyota Tercel

 

23 years old!
first car when i was 16 was 98 Audi A4!
After that i will never buy an Audi. once audi starts to break, it keeps on breaking!!!

 

That 48 Nash could be worth some money today.

 

1985 Volkswagon Jetta. There was really nothing wrong with the car, other than a dirty fuel filter when i first brought it home.

 

94 Chevy Astro Van
