I probably had the biggest POS of all. A 1987 Chevy Celebrity, the 2.5 litre 4 cyclinder. It had a hole in the exhaust pipe that I never fixed, sounded like a Harley. The transmission was shot, I couldn't drive over 45mph in it because once it got passed it it would slip into neutral, and just rev out. I had a racing stripe of rust on it, which I later fixed. Someone tell me how to post a picture and I will of the car after it broke down. Trust me, everyone will get a good laugh with what I did to it after it ran.

Wish I had mine now.

My first car was a 87 Chevy Spectrum Turbo. It wasn't very fast but is was a five speed. And with what I know now about sport-compacts, 4 cylinders, and turbo-charging technology, man if I had that thing now it would be killer fast

Mine was a brown 87 Jetta GL....had that bad boy up to 110 packed full of camping gear(trunk+rear seats) with my friend on the way back from Lassen Natn Park...I KNOW it was 110 because the Highway Patrol man that pulled me over told me thats what the radar said.

My first car was a 1985 Toyota Cressida. It looked like this, but it was green and in better condition.

First Car

My very first car was a 1970 VW Karman Ghia. I learned so much from that car. I could take the engine out of that thing in about an hour. I did that about twice a month since it kept leaking oil and other problems.

First New car was a 1995 Chevrolet Cavalier. LEMON.

My first car http://www.imagestation.com/album/in...91954503&idx=6 I bought my Z when I was 18. After a couple of years the ECU blew cause someone kicked the a/c drain releif hose and the condensation dripped on the ECU. I was going to put a JWT ECU in but instead I got a used ECU and spent the JWT ECU money on a 91 DX. I bought my Pro for $700 cash with 114,000. The camera used to take the pic is like $20,000...Way more than my ride. A friend of mine works in the Visual Media group at my job!

1988 Pontiac Grand Am 16V DOHC (just like my P5). I didn't know you had to get oil changes. I just kept adding new oil whenevr needed. Eventually my exhaust rusted out and broke. The very day I was driving to the mechanic to fix the exhaust the engine siezed up (because of oil situation). But I had some good ol times with that car. Damn fast too. I even struck a building with it. A city landmark at that.

My first was an '85 light blue p.o.s. Cutlass supreme.. Hey, It was transportation... I can honestly say I'm glad my parents didn't toss me right into any one of the sports cars I would have preferred... Probably would have given me a big fat head, a few speeding tickets, and maybe a couple of accidents. *sigh*
Glad I've got my mp3 now though lol
