    Like it says what was your first car and how did you get it.



    My first was a 1993 nissan 240SX which I riced out pretty bad. I saved my money for two yours and bought with my own money on my 17th birthday. Unfortunitly unlike alot of you lucky basterds my parents said "boy why should we buy you a car when you can just use moms mini-van" Total price out the door on my prestige blk 240 $3800.00:bowdown:

    First ride was a 1981 Mazda 626 2 door . Nothing to major just a little system =).

    My parents bought it for me for like $800 dollars from one of their friends.

    my first car was a burgundy 88 buick regal...

    it came on a similar ticket as the "moms van" thing you were talking about... it was my step-grandmothers old car so i got it for free when she got something new... my mom totaled it out though... not even three months after i got my learners permit, while i was at school one day...

    i'll never forget how my grandfather was so afraid that i would kill myself in it b/c it wasfuel injected and way to fast for me... :p lol... cant wait till he sees what i'm driving now when we go to his house for christmas this year, lol...:naughty:

    Thanks, it took a long time to find one, never could find an 84 Turbo one(CA18t :( ) worked from 14-17 when I finally got it from Southtrust Bank Repo Sale. It served me pretty well through college. Kinda wish I kept it.

    My first was a 1986 VW GTi, it still had the "rabbit" logo on it. Pretty fun little car, but it would overheat after a few hours of continuous driving....

    Rest of the rides"

    1994 Isuzu Pickup, tricked out with Rims from the dealer. It actually looked nice and ran well. Great first new car for someone who moved ALOT.

    1991 Mazda Miata: Used, eneded up with crank issue. I replaced the engine with a rebuilt one and that car is now with my cousin prepped for spec miata racing....

    2002 Ford Focus SVT: For the money, the best car I could afford at the time. Peppy and handled well, but the seats were horrible!

    2004 Mazda Miata: Rest in Pieces....

    2004 Subaru WRX

    Next: 2006 Subaru WRX Wagon????
