This looks a lot like mine...Except mine was a deep royal blue with the same balck vinyl roof...It was the only really cool car I ever owned, even if only for a week.

YouTube - 1967 Oldsmobile 442 for Sale

1977 Chevy Impala affectionately known as "the boat".

1.3 Litre 1995 Ford Fiesta. Bought it for £300. Cheap boring but it was the most reliable car I ever owned

[DELETED]

68 Chevy Impala.

It was time for me to learn to drive so I asked one of my Uncles to find me a car for $50 and he did.

It was dingy yellow with a ripped black vinyl top.

I had to get a new muffler.

TL

1985 Oltcit 11RL. Buyed for $150, sold 24 hours later for $300

1978 Mercedez 200, still miss it. although its brakes didnt work, was heavy on gas and spilt oil everywhere.

I'm yet waiting to have one

Not my first car, but the first car I bought completely on my own and financed through a car dealer:
1971 Mercury Montego GT advertisement

(It was used, not new)

1981 AMC Concorde wagon. Thing was a tank. Ran it into a concrete wall at 50 mph... lost about an inch of trim around the headlight.

Drove it off the side of a mountain a couple years later. The car didn't make it through that experience... but thanks to its sturdy construction, I did.

Not my first car, but everyone I knew growing up had this car at one time or another...Did you or your family ever own a Ford Galaxy?

old is gold

Mmm my first car was a Mazda 323, i don't think they were released here in the USA.
My first car here in the US, Dodge Charger.

my first car was a ford, 1985,

MY first car was a 1969 VW Beetle. It was a gift from my brother that was also a gift to him from dad! LOL its color orange and everything is in good shape. I already repainted it once.

My first car was one of these, in this colour:

My first car is now Time Magazine's worst car in history. I bought an 86 Yugo with the mega money I was making at Taco-Bell at the time...

Was 16 yrs old (1974)......a '66 Chevy II Nova Supersport....bought it for $200....was a bucket of bolts...but it was mine...lol. I worked a lot of hours on it, had it looking & running great....sold it 2 yrs later to help pay for the 1st semester of nursing school for my (then) girl friend...she broke up with me 3 weeks later....ahhhh, the stupid things guys do for that lil patch of hair....LOL
I miss that car...
~Ken

Mine was a 64' Plymouth Valiant. 225 Slant six was a great motor but the tranny went out 2 weeks after I bought it.

A black 1986 Camaro Iroc-Z with TTops.

My first and current car.

LOL... My first car was a 1962 Chevy II Nova Super Sport and it sported a
302, manual trans with 4, 2 barrow duce's and a master cut-off control valve.

I could run it on 4, 6 or 8 cylinders.

My father won it in a bet the day I turned 16yrs old. The guy bet him title for
title at Ohio Valley Speed Way and lost the race.

I had the car a week and then took a trip to Florida with a few friends. When
I returned from the trip, my father had removed the 302 motor and replaced
it with a 196 automatic. When I pulled out on the highway I had to wait for
bike riders to go by before I could pull out in fear they might hit me!

I then upgraded to a 1961 Ford Falcon which I then sold for $100 only to
learn that if I had just turned the distributer a 1/2 inch would burn rubber
in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. The guy I sold it to adjusted it and then did
it after he left my driveway. (He's still on my Sh!t list)

My third car...oh, never mind.

Have a Great Day!
Michael

When I am old enough I will decide.

My first year in college 1962 my dad bought me a 1954 Chevy Convertible.....red, white top, red and white rolled and pleated interior....6cyl. stick...ran great...had a ball with that car...

My first car I purchased with my own money was a 1974 dodge dart.

The worst car I ever owned was a POS Hyundai - actually it was my wife's. When we got married she got my brand new Chevy S10 and I got her Hyundai.

6 months later it started making some odd noises and shimmy while I drove. I was on my way to the shop when I pressed the brakes, heard a VERY loud grinding noise, and the brakes failed. Then I heard a sound like a snap. A few seconds later I saw a car tire pass me on the passenger side - my first thought was WFT - where did that come from? A second later I found out when the back of my car slammed into the pavement because the wheel had sheared off the bearings and broke lose.

Remember - Friends don't let Friends drive Hyundais!

Been driving my parents' old '97 Toyota Corolla since I was 16. Only has 75k miles...gonna be driving that forever until it dies/I hit it off with IM.

My first car was SANTRO.... great car

Mine was a 1994 Toyota Camry. I still miss it

My first car was a 1979 Chevy Chevette. Light Green, the only car I ever owned brand new. Had 80 miles on it! Still miss that thing!

Dorothy

my mother had a nearly cherry 53 Buick when I started to drive at like 15-1/2.

my father had a 57 pink and black leather cadillac convertible (with wolf whistle) el dorado

for the longest time i told people i had driven a cadillac at 5 years old -

i was much older when I realized I was sitting on daddy's lap steering and that he was in control of the gas and brakes.

so i had to relearn driving when i had this epiphany. lol.

my teenage fiance' had a 57 baby blue T-Bird hard top convertible and a model A or T Ford.

the first car i bought was probably an oldsmobile - used
but i dreamed of Morgans and MGs.

*Edit just remembered I bought a Toyota Celica that was a complete gutless lemon and I only had it a short time. It was pretty silver though...

i also had to buy a chevrolet sprint - my uncle bought it for me and i had to assume payments. it was an ugly little econobox but got 45 mpg (3 cylinder Suzuki engine)
maintenance free.

*Edit = Chevy Sprint was the prototype for the geo metro

then my mother gave me a nearly cherry oldsmobile royal broughm something or other

Then I bought a Pontiac Bonneville SSEI - used silver - with super charger
Then I bought another one -new - I have one of the last 2 years of the SSEI

I only owe $7000 more dollars on it and it might be my last car. I love it and if that is the way it is, that's all good and all leather, 2 satellites.

In a better world I sometimes wish I had one of those little Audi or Nissan Roadsters.
If I won the lotto the Cadillac Roadster - only $100k.

57 T-Bird Hard Top Convertible

Mine was a mini, and it was fab. A car so small that it would actually be classified as a toy in the U.S. I think. Still I was able to fit myself and 11 friends into it when necessary.

Pauline

My first was a 1.2 black reanault clio i-music.

Mine was a 1990 Toyota Celica GT 5th Generation, 5spd & a sleeper. Boy was she awesome. I'd love to go pick one up again.

A silver 1984 Volkswagon Rabbit! It was ghetto!!!

My first car is a white Honda Civic ESI, I got it 1998 as a birthday gift. It's still here with me now and I just had it repainted for the 4th time. I just can't let go of it. Whenever I attempt to or even entertain the idea of selling it, separation anxiety kicks in.

A Maserati Gransport.

Mine actually was 2 cars that I had to combine to make a complete car.
They were 66 olds f85s one was a blue green color and the other was maroon. When I was finished putting the one together using parts of the other one I was driving a maroon 66 olds f85 with a bluish green front end , both fenders and hood..and I also had to take the power steering unit from the pieces car and put in the one I drove. What a pain but it was worth it , 2speed power glide transmission that I tried to tear up but couldn't.

Boy those were the good ole days;-)

John

'86 Cutlass Ciera

It was a beat-up hunker but I loved that car.

[DELETED]

Mine is an old school toyota. its a 1979 corona rt130.

A 95 Honda civic, it was great fun while I had it

1989 Honda Civic WAGOVAN! My friends called it the "honker" and it was a serious POS. Came from new york and by the time I got rid of it was nearly rusted out (apparently from all the salt they put on the roads up there in the winter?)

'97 Ford Contour. Loved that car

A Fiat Uno. You may laugh at the car, but get ready to split your sides... I bought it on Finance at the heart-stoppingly massive 25% annual interest! The folly of youth!

Mine was/is a 2004 Vauxhall Corsa bought less than a year ago.

I don't have any car yet. I wish to purchase my own car in a couple of months.

A junker Pontiac from a "buy here, pay here" outfit.

My mom baught me a Lexus RX 330

hellow.........

My first car was Honda Accord 1990 model

My first car was an old Plymouth. I didn't have it too long before I bought a 69 Chevelle SuperSport 396 bore to a 402.

I kept the Chevelle for many years. Burnt a lot of rubber from 1st to 4th gear in that machine when I was young and a bit foolish.

Lambert

my first car is beetle, blue colour high wheels with shaded glass

hi

my first car is 800.its very nice.once upon a time thats my friend

Haha...mine was a 1996 Pontiac Sunfire..dark blue that I bought for $1300 and lasted for about 5-6 months tops. It was basically a lemon when I bought it but I didn't know any better. I test drove it first and everything seemed fine, sounded fine, looked fine. Didn't know it was a waste until I literally driving down the road and my brakes stopped working...talk about scary. They connected it to some diagnostics test and found the engine had over a 100 or so misfires....been down ever since.

Then I graduated to a 95 beretta, and a 96 blazer - I made it far haven't I? lol :p

My first car was a red mustang. Just had to play the classic all American bad boy for the ladies, since Miami is made up of mostly latinos haha ;-)

Talk about dominating a niche haha!

Great car by the way!

A Dacia 1310 from 1977, then a Chevrolet Spark and now Nissan Primera hope that the next one will be an Audi

Never owned a car and hopefully will not have to.

Environmentally unfriendly, expensive beasts and have no fitness/health benefits like walking/running/biking.

Easy to say though when you don't need a car.

Hmmm.. I am still in Effort to have one.. Will Strive to the best.. hehehehehe..
Nice cars all of you have.. I think it will a little proud to have a first car by your own..

My First Car Was Opel Corsa SAIL 1.6 With Sunroof.....My Dad Gifted That Old Opel To Me & I Renovated That Car in 50k bucks Got New Tyres & Interior....Right now I m Planning To Change The Music System... & I Just Love That Car...

Hi,
I would be seriously surprised if this is your dream car...1979 Plymouth Volare. It wasn't what I wanted at the time, but I would love to have it back.
I'm sure it's not your dream car, but it was my first. LOL


Thanks!!!

My first and current car is limousine

Well actually I just decided to stay away from cars as I love bikes so I bought a Royal Enfield Thunderbird for myself. But still I love Toyota Fortuner if concerned with Cars.

1982 Subaru Leone - it was a good little car too

My First was a Van and it was the Austin 35. I can remember had to be very careful on bends. Really liked driving it and my first car was a Sunbeam Rapier loved that car. really good topic. Thanks.

ha ha good ? It was a stolen 95 Honda Prelude. Little did I know after $500 spent it was stolen. Luckily my parents got me out of that bind by cutting me off at Jacobs Park where me and some friends had plan to go. They forced me to return the car to the seller, who wasn't around, but luckily the seller's grandparents were kind enough pay me back in his favor.

A White Ford Fiesta Mk2

My first car was a 1962 volkswagen bug. My dad purchased it from a co-worker for $600. Eight years later and three boys later he sold it for $600.

The guy who bought it fixed it up to meant condition and now it is worth over $15,000.

Boy was it fun to drive.

Common Joe

my first car was a toyota camry. had lot of fun with it

1977 baby blue Chevy Luv baby.

1979 Chevy Chevette. Got it brand spankn' new when I graduated High School.

A mint green 1.6 Ford Capri, which my husband said he'd teach me to drive in. He gave me one lesson, went a curious shade of white, told me that I'd done OK but that the car just needed 'a bit of work doing on it' and then came home and removed the engine. Permanently.

Since then I've had a midnight blue 1.6 Ford Capri and another mint green 1.6 Ford Capri (spot an obsession emerging yet? ) but still haven't passed my test. My last driving instructor assured me that the incident in which I'd simultaneously written off his passenger side front wheel and dislocated his shoulder could have happened to anyone, and that he'd be in touch once the damage was mended. This must have been at least nine years ago, so I can only assume that he's very slow to heal...

I haveamini car, it is beautiful and good, I like it very much.

My first and single car was is and in the nearest time will be Ford K(
when i drive not alone my car sags...

Many many moons ago, I paid cash for a 63 plymouth valiant with a slant six and a stick shift. Ran like a champ until my ex gave it the his friend's 12 year old to play with. He took it apart to see how it worked. Did'nt like him either. Loved the car, wish I had it now.

Well, my first car was Beetle. It was really the common people's car. Its affordable, good looking, fast and costs little in maintaining. Mine was of yellow colour but i like Blue more.

I has toyota car....

My first car was a brand new '84 Renault Encore. It had been named "Car of the Year" a year earlier, but unfortunately the cars did not live up to the honor. Within 5 years, you never saw them on the road anymore. When mine broke down I walked away from it- the repairs on that French import were staggering!

Hi...Friends,
My first car was Honda City.

Dodge Neon '96.

Ah, them backseat moments...those were...
wait. They still ARE the days. Only that I'll
be getting my BMW soon to upgrade my
Casanova.

when I first started driving my parents gave me the extra old car, a 1989 ford tempo - I did not like it...I was so happy when it gave up on me and my parents sold it because it was too expensive to repair
after that I bought myself a honda civic

Chevy Chevette, four door hatchback (that's a five door to some of you). Great little thing. After walking into the dealership and signing up for a loan, I had to call my older brother to come drive it home for me. You see, it was a manual transmission. He went over the gear switching and clutch on the way home. I was out driving by myself that evening.

I don't have a car, but If ever I will get one I think Ill buy a mini cooper.

My first car was a '57 Studebaker Hawk; I still have the supercharger!

Mine was a 1966 Ford Galaxy 500 Fastback. Canary Yellow with a White top. Had a 289 engine. Bought it from Hertz Rental Car. Wish I still had it!!!

Ahhh, I remember the first car I had! It was greyish, with a green logo on the side. A greyish Zipcar! Those were the days.

[DELETED]

Mine cost £100 and it was a volswagen golf. I still remember that 2nd and 4th gear did not work. Driving from south London to north was an experience each day.
But loved it, I think I sold it for £50 after a year.

A 1982 Mazda 626. It was a little coupe, so much fun for a first car. Until it was totaled, I was side swiped I think I had it for about 3 years when that happened.

68 Chevy Impala which came from my dad.

bmw 3 series e46 model epic car, still have it

First Car was a Honda Civic 94

Silver Golf 3. And I do still have it. It's really a nice car.

1971 Green Chevy Vega.
I remember popping the clutch to show it off and ended up blowing the tranny.

78 Dodge Aspen. The car often broke down and I fixed it a lot. I somtimes had to push the car to the nearest gas station.

She was a cherry red 98 Ford Taurus. I named her Siouxsie. Six months later, I smashed her into a curb that was waaaay too high.

My First Car was 2011 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.. It is also my favourite one....

Mines was a Chrysler 300

[DELETED]

Great question!

My first car was a 1966 Dodge Polara. The thing was rusted out but man it could move! Eight cylinders with a 383 engine.

Use to call it the "White Whale".

I am 6 feet tall and I could lie down on the back seat -- from head to toe -- without curling. (Which, since I was 18 at the time, came in handy after Saturday night parties).

Hey thanks for the trip down memory lane!

One of the original minis. It was already 20 years old when I started driving it. Starting button on the floor and moss growing in the windows. Happy days.

[DELETED]

Someone is proud of their first car with the pics. . . Mine was a '73 Chevy El Camino. The full sized car and bed, not the smaller late '70s models.

1972 Monte Carlo Mint condition.

I was so stupid. I didnt like it back then and took it for granted because my friends cars were newer.... man if I could ever go back in time! Got it for $400 even, and it looked like it just rolled off the floor with about 20k miles on it.

I ended up likin the all the cylinders too much and wrapped it around a curve and totaled it.

I am still working to buy my own car. It would take me another year but I would ddefinitely own one

Mine was a used 1974 Satellite Sebring, almost like this one. It was green with the half vinyl roof. Had it painted blue later on.

[DELETED]

mine was a toyota corolla year 2000
lol about the marriage tip!

Mine was honda civic.... bought it new in chicago before I moved and it ran cool 260K miles without any major problem...

acura 1997 lx (i think?)

91' Opel Corsa. Or was it an 89? Can't remember.

64-1/2 Mustang that was in pretty bad shape cosmetically but it could fly off the line. :-D

My first car was a 1977 Chevy Malibu.

A puke yellow colored dodge Omni. It was the ugliest little car you can image. A total of $2,000 and wasn't even worth that. At the time, I didn't care, it was mine!!

[DELETED]

I was in Germany when I got my first car. It was a little black volkswagon with a white roof and front engine hood and trunk hood. It looked like a little skunk.
