Your First Car
 

Seeming as I just bought mine, I thought I'd create a thread, for other members to share, as well as share their memories of the car!

Mine is a 1998 Ford Ka, 1.3L engine, 80000 miles, not great, but hey, does what it needs!

Hopefully I'll have some good memories of it, and will replace it with something a little nicer

Mine, was at age 15 (law breaker even then :) parked from view at the end of our street. It was a 59 (?) Renault Gordini. Had a sun roof that leaked like the Titanic and grew a crop of mushrooms on the 70's shag carpet during the winter months. Was a fun little car, climbed hills well, ran very well on siphoned neighborhood gas :) and was much cooler then riding a bicycle around town. Actually, would be nice to have it now since none of my 4 wheel vehicles can seem to break the 16MPG range. ;)

I'm set to buy my first car in a few month. Before that I used to drive my father's old silverado 2001 from time to time. Brings back a lot of memories with me..

Mercy, mine's bad. My very first car was a 1997 Subaru Station Wagon. It was red and I referred to her as "The Red Dragon." Ya know how most 16-year-olds are super amped about getting a set of wheels? Well, I really wasn't. Haha. That thing was ugly. Didn't help me too much with the ladies, either. In the end, I got in an accident (nobody was hurt, thankfully) and made a bit of an automotive improvement. Haha. Love this thread!

2001 Lexus GS 300, great car very smooth ride. It was an awesome first car until so guy ran a red light and t-boned me. Totaled my baby completely, no way to get her fixed.

never heard or seen a ford ka. Is is sold in the north American market? Not in Canada that I have seen.


my first car was a 1984 fiero. although not great by todays standards; I loved the car. it was well known by tow truck drivers. In the end, it lasted 19 years and have over 300 000kilometers...and turned me into a auto mechanic. How many cars last that long in a rust belt!

Not to brag, Im a little older so they were cheap, 68 chevelle, 68 mustang, 69 gto, 76 trans am, 69 firebird, Then I got married= work truck

Nice selection :)

hard to go wrong in that era. imo the late sixties probably produced the best looking cars of any time period.

My first car was a 1965 Chrysler Newport had 65,000 on the odom when i got it at 18 in 2000 (and yes the odom still worked) had to much fun in that car unfortunately the trans went out and couldn't afford to fix it so now all that is left is the 383 in my dads shop waiting for a new shell
