What was your first car

[Heller]

2007 scion tc paid 7500m one year old, clear carfax report.

 

[MJinZ]

A 2009 V6 Camry.

Will probably get driven into the ground as a beater while I consider a 2 seater or coupe in the near future.

^Ugh on the VVT-i stickers. Everything Toyota makes from the weakest 4 bangers to the 8 and 10s have VVT-i, it doesn't make it special.

2007 scion tc paid 7500m...

By 'm' do you mean dollars? If so, what's the rest of the story here, how "beat" was it?

89 Accord, bought it in 2000. Got rid of it later that year after the transmission started to go a few miles from my house after a long road trip.

Let me guess, it was a two-tone white over sea green 4 door sedan.

Mine was a turd brown 1963 Corvair Monza whose mighty 85 horsepower boxer engine was further enhanced by it's mulitple speed, fully automatic transmission of the future.

 

[ElFenix]

'91 ford taurus. very comfortable, decent mileage, and eater of transmissions (though it never left me stranded, unlike my sentra)

 

[Nyati13]

First 'car' was a used 89 Ford F-150, bought in 91.

 

[skyking]

Representative image, it was a 1959 Chev Apache panel.

I get the feeling you had a falling out with your sentra.

 

[Imported]

No photo.. but a maroon 1986 Toyota Cressida.

 

[maddogchen]

my first car I drove was a Ford Tempo 84. Horrible car! It stalled going downhill!!! I would have to turn on the engine again at the bottom of the hill. Who does that?

the only bright side? at least it didn't stall going up the hill...

 

[JMapleton]

1991 Lexus LS400

Bought in the late 90s.

I had a '93 Taurus after I totaled my '93 Corolla (with a short stint in a '86 Country Squire that my parents were giving away to charity, but let me drive until I was able to purchase the Taurus from a brother-in-law). That Taurus was a nightmare. Blown head gaskets (3.8L), transmission issues, and several electrical gremlins. I was not a fan of that car. The paint job was top notch though.

 

[DarkThinker]

My first college car, 95 Dodge Neon, what a POS that was, I swore never to buy a Chrysler car ever in my life again. Everything went wrong with it. Handles, the entire electric system, axles, radiator, pumps....etc Oh I was so glad when it got totaled, I rushed that day and got a 96 Accord, what a big difference that was, the Accord ran for 6 years and never a problem besides regular maintenance.
