When I was 16, my first car was 1970 VW Bug. Which, actually is a nice first car for a kid.

However, my 2nd car was a 1974 Chevrolet Vega GT POS.

1962 Chev 1/2 ton long bed pickup. Engine: some sort of inline 6. Transmission: 3-speed column shift with no 2nd gear, and 1st could only be shifted into from a dead stop. No power brakes or steering. Color: dirty pig. Heater: didn't work. Driver's side window: wouldn't roll back up. Odds of successful parallel parking: zero.

Do I win a prize?

You guys suck. My first car wasn't even a car but a 7 year old 1979 Honda XL 250 (street legal enduro)

So much fun in the Winter months. Actually it's what I wanted at the time, not necissarly that old though. No Mono shock type rear suspension or disks, or liqued cooling or even 6 gears

First actual car (4 wheels) was a 2 year old 1985 Nissan PU 4 banger 2wd bougt in '87.

1971 Ford Maverick
It was Carolina blue.
The interior was a nice navy blue plastic/vinyl mix.
Had a nice set of snowtires (w/whitewalls) equipped
I sold my four-wheeler and paid $800 for this sweet ride.
