Default Everybody Remembers Their First

It doesn't matter how old you are, (or how many you've had since) we all remember our 1st. car.
Here's some photos of one that's like mine. Only mine had a a teal green interior, and Crager SS wheels.

Car of the Week: 1963 Dodge 880 Custom Convertible - Old Cars Weekly

Who's next?

Mine was a 1969 Cadillac Eldorado identical to this one. When I sold it mine had 334k and still looked and ran like new.

A little newer, but hopefully I can play as well.

I saved up for YEARS and when I was 15, a few months from my 16th birthday, I bought myself a 1993 E36 3 series BMW in red. It looked very similar to the one below when I was done with it. It was a 318is, very slow, but looked KILLER, next I upgraded to the 325i...

At 15 I bought this off my neighbor for $500.. 1986 RX-7, looks alot like the pic. I did mods later, it had alot of issues but I still have it. One day I want to learn drifting and maybe do it...

ROTFLMAO!!! No, no bodies. I would not have wanted to stain the pristine carpet in the trunk or get the mat dirty. But I did forget to give them my extra set of keys. I traded it in '80 for a new Eldorado and the dealership had it on their showroom floor for years. I went in one day to look at an '85 Fleetwood Coupe and they had the doors locked. They flipped when they realized I was sitting in the car.. I still have the keys....

'77 Datsun pickup. God I loved that truck. 4 banger, 5 speed, 2wd mini truck of pure fun. I drove the hell out of it, did only minor occasional maintenance and couldn't kill it no matter how hard I tried.
What color was it? Take your pick, and yes it was that too!

When we moved to where we are now in '99 we lost all of our old photos....of the kids when they were little, my old cars, racing photos of the bike days, family photos. Never found them. My first car in '71 was a '69 Z-28 and I would give just about anything to have it back. Been searching for similar photo haven't found one yet.

Come on people, there is no reason to be shy here. Show us those 1st. cars that got you started down the road to your eventual Crossfire.
