Mine was a 1999 Hyundai Sonata GLS V6. It was a good first beater car and served its purpose as such. 3 car accidents later it was still in good enough shape to get a $3000 trade-in for a Tiburon.

 

25 now, nearing 26. 1985 Toyota Celica GT-S. $1500. Sometimes it started, sometimes it didn't.

 

Nighthawk black 1998 Prelude Type SH

1997 Ford Taurus GL, black. My dad originally got it salvage. We rebuilt it and my brother drove it for a while. He had a minor accident and we repaired it again. Last year, I was driving the car when a b!tch in an Astro Van comes flying up a hill doing 50, blows the red light and hits me.

And then we repaired it...

But I had another unfortunate accident that crippled it for good.

People say that the Taurus was ****, but it was a really good car for me. I hate to say it, but it was fun to drive too.

Now I have an 2002 Ranger Extend-a-Cab w/ the styleside bed. I'm 19, and the truck was yep...salvage.

 

I got my first car at 17 in 1990. It was a 85' Black Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. All things considered it was a great first car. Power everything, quick enough to get out off it's own way, but not fast enough to get me into too much trouble.

 

1982 Volvo 240 Turbo. Black/gold two tone paint w/ gold wheels. Bought it from an 82 year old man, who had bought it like that, and decided after 20 years, it was time for a new car. Now a 2003 supercharged rsx-s, 2008 350z in august.

first post w00t

 

1978 280Z when i wass 15 and thats y i have a 07 350Z at 19 love them !!!

 

1989 Honda Accord auto, flip up lights (yaaaa..baby..ya) at 19 that I paid 1/2for.
24 now and drive an 07 Z and yes I am paying for it all!

 

I had a 1983 toyota tercel with the sport package. 600$ with chrome wheels and graphics.. This wasnt it but looks as beat up as mine. lol

 

Mine was a brand spanking new 92 blazer loaded with a lift kit and winch with all the options when i was 14. I liked it but it was still a chevy need to say more......

 

I'm about to be 24. I had a handed down 1993 Mercury Sable. It had the 3.8liter V6 witch was the bigger one. Black on Black leather. Cd player worked half the time. Went through 2 motors, 3 trannys and 1 window would not roll down. The wheels were faded. At first I hated that car then I loved it. I wish I still had it. The memorys in that car. Lots of good times with friends. Oh ya the paint was starting fade.

 

1986 chevy celebrity

 

1988 300zx black with leather 95k on it got it in 2002 for 2500 bucks! sold it a yr later for 3500 with a blown head gasket

 

My first vehicle was a 86' Nissan pickup truck, small. It was given to me and didn't even run when I got it. I had to buy a new carb, which was like $450. It was a Holly 2-barrel, stock on a 4 cyl., lol. I abused the hell out of it, and it took a good beating. It was leaking a quart of oil a day when I sold it for $700.

Anyway, all my cars after that were all Chevrolet, mostly Camaros. Now I'm back to Nissan again, only for a Z this time. I've had 2 07' in the last year.

 

Ah, so long ago... 1990, got a Fiat 500 that I owned for all of 20 minutes, till I drove off and the rear right wheel decided to go another direction!
Fast forward to 1997, my second car was a 1984 Caprice Classic, $500. It did the job.

 

1961 Renault Dauphine.....................32 horsepower with a 3 speed on the floor.

 

I feel old reading some of these. I am 33 now, but when I was 16 I had a 1979 VW rabbit. Beige 4spd manual, ugly as hell but I loved it. Learned how to drive stick on it and have fond back seat memories.

 

Used Corvair in 1967. Bucket seats and 4 on the floor!

 

In 95 I bought from the neighbor an 84' Jeep Cheeroke. It ran but after i changed out the sludge called oil, it wouldnt run. I rebuilt the rebuilt. It backfired all the time. It was a carbed 4 cyl. that got me about 10mpg. It would run out of gas at half a tank. Top speed down hill was 60, i think the speedo didnt work. Half the interior was missing. The back seat was still there thankfully... I paid 500 bucks and drove it for less time than i actually owned it bc i think every part under the hood broke at least once while i had it for that year and a half..lol I miss the Jeep part but not that one..

 

I might have one of the worst one. It was a 85 Chevy Cavailer. The headliner inside the car was torn. The lock of the trunk was broken, I have to use a screwdriver to turn it in order to open the trunk.

Someone tag "**** you" on my passenger side door. The passenger side was messed up due to an accident. The front bumper was cracked and I had to use a wire hanger to tide it down to the front grill. I think my car would've made it in the show "Pimp My Ride" if they have that show back then.
