Here's a thread from the dead on this subject: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3850

 

1994 Dodge Dakota!! 2WD, regular cab, extended box, armstrong windows, no A/C. It was awesome!!

 

1969 VW bug.

 

First car was a Lancia Strato Matchbox car...Not enough headroom even though I was only about 3 feet tall at the time. The looks of this thing got me hooked on cars at an early age.

First driveable car was an '88 Jeep Cherokee Laredo way back in the high school days. Had 2 10" Lanzar (sic?) subs in the back - which drove the neighbors crazy. This was a long time before the Pimp My Ride days...

 

1968 Honda 305 Super Hawk
1965 VW Bug
Both bought and paid for with my own money 6 months before I turned 16 in 1969.

 

Black 1996 Acura Integra bought new

I've always had black cars. In high school, I washed it twice a week.

 

1994 Ford Mustang.

V6, Auto, manual everthing.


150hp, 190tq.



Oh what fun times we had.

 

'86 Olds 442.

 

05 Ford Focus ZX3

 

Parents gave me a '82 Subaru GL wagon that I never drove.
Then I bought an '87 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with the very rare ASC power sunroof and vinyl top options.

15yrs i bought a 1986 dodge daytona turbo Z c/S with 45k orignial miles...wrecked it (bought right before my 16th and drove it until i was mid 16)

16yrs - I bought a Subaru Impreza 1.8l fwd...to learn how to drive appropriately first. ( just sold this year)

19yrs - bought a 2000 honda S2000 (traded)

21yrs -Bought an 2001.5 Nogaro Audi S4 (current)

and i had to work for everyone of them. 40hrs + aweek at work and full time school since it was possible.

 

I'm still in my first car, a 1987 Jeep Cherokee. Its been good to me so far, and im just waiting to be able to afford a new car.

 

I kinda "took" my parents 1997 Chrysler Sebring (was their 3rd car so...) and i've pretty much taken posession of my dads 1975 Triumph Spitfire Hoping to be able to buy my own car before i graduate college...(fingers crossed...E36 M3)

 

My older brother has an E36 M3, with full exhaust and many other things done to it, and its an amazing car.

 

1971 MGB, BRG with tan interior.

This was is 1973 BTW.

Datsun 240Z. Started out stock, I still have it.... very not stock anymore.

 

A 1986 VW GTI kept it till I wrecked it! Then a 1993 Supra

 

I would like to say my first car will be either a Subaru WRX or Subaru WRX STi. But I cannot say for sure.
