My first car was a 1993 Pontiac Grand Prix SE coupe. Bought it totalled for $250, spent roughly $900 on body panels and paint, and had a nifty lookin ride for fairly cheap. Loved that car, fire engine red, leather seats, and a CD player! Then the oil pump went out while I was doin 75 down the interstate...didn't end well...
My favorite to drive would have been my old votech teacher's 74 Monte Carlo. 454. That's all I gotta say.

My first was a Geo Spectrum. We called it the Screamin Mosquito, as the exhaust fell off one day, so to repair it, we used a piece of strait sewer pipe, and it sounded like a giant mosquito.
(not my actual car, but this is EXACTLY how it looked. Even the lame caps on the rims)

My first car was a 1990 Fiesta. It was the Ghia. Velour seats. Oh yes.

Another mission, the powers have called me away. Another chance to carry the colours again. My motivation, an oath I've sworn to defend. To win the honour of coming back home again. |

Google is fun, saves time taking pics. Mine however is black with metallic green going through it. Got it cheap since it needs a little work done on the engine.
Only cost about $1000ish and had custom wheels I could part out for $600ish anyway.

The Last Chancer Who Survived
|
My first car was an '83 Nissan Sentra, it was 10 years old at the time. The engine fell apart after about 9 months.
Then I got a brand new '94 Dodge Shadow. A few years and 70k miles later I signed it over to mom who traded it in for a new Nissan Altima ('97?) and she gave me her old Nissan Maxima, which I later traded in for a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder, followed by a '04 Honda Elemement, then a '08 4 door Jeep Wrangler that I hated and traded in for my 2010 Ford Escape. So far, the best car/suv I've ever owned
