What was your first car?

My first car was a 1984 Red Pontiac Fiero. It broke down just about everyday but I still loved it and finally parted with it in 1994.

My first car was a 1992 Cherry Red Pontiac Sunbird. It had a lot of battery problems and the air conditioning never worked.

It was a 89 honda civic hatchback. Had it for only about 4 months before I totaled it. I have had better cars ever since.

red 1982 Datsun 200SX. I got rid of it in 1993 when the mechanic said that it was only going to last another 6 months tops.

HA! My first car was a blue 1987 Ford Tempo. But that baby didn't last more than six months. She hit the dust when I decided it would be awesome to take some friends out to a county road and start jumping the bumps in the road with it. Eventually we started to get some serious air (all four tires leaving the ground) and the last jump brought her to her demise...

I had the 1994 in very bright please, officer, I really give me a ticket red. I read that red cars were more likley to get pulled over, so i put a bumper sticke that said "clergy" on it. Because who would pull over a priest? It was a total piece. Probably dead now. I got rid of it two years ago.

A 1987 Toyota Tercel. It was such a hunk of junk. I had to put a quart of oil in every two weeks because the engine would just burn it. I had to stand on the gas pedal for like a minute to get it to 55, and it would start to rattle if it ever got above 60.

The state of California bought it from me after it failed the smog test miserably and was labeled a "gross polluter".

As much as the car was a piece of crap, I still miss it.

1958 Austin Healey (Bug eye) Sprite. The floorboards on the passenger side had rusted out and been replaced by plywood. I think it used more oil than gas. That was during High School.

College car was a 1958 Triumph TR-3A roadster. That was a great car that I drove until it dropped.
