What was your first car?

What was your first car and when did you get it?

Mine was a 1987 Honda Civic hand-me-down sedan. She was slow, but man she was a great-handling little car and fun to drive. I got her when I turned 19 and my mom bought a newer Honda Civic.

She looked like this:

A two-door Ford Pinto wagon that left a 50 ft trail of white smoke when I drove it. F***ing father.

Loved every minute of driving my 1999 Toyota Avalon until this drunk under-21 teenager hit my car. This was in Rowland Heights on Colima Road and Fullerton. I was on a date for Valentine's day and waiting to turn on a green arrow and this guy rear ends me (please note that my car is not moving at all).















owned.

I was 15 years old.

Put chrome wheels on it. Tint. System. Dropped the clutch constantly, burned rubber. Pulled the e-brake to go sideways. Yep, she was a champ.

Good Lord. I'm glad your OK. People like him shouldn't even be on the roads. They're a threat to society.

Bugatti Veyron. I still found it to be too slow though, I guess it needed more turbos. Haha, oh being a teenager was so exciting!

Shit son, I'm from these parts. Recognize the landmarks like Yoshinoya lol. Sucks what happened to you, bro. It's so easily to drink underaged at the Asian bars/restaurants. Responsibility, some don't have it.

1997 ford explorer xlt... it was forest green w/ beige cloth. had that car threw 2 accidents: rear ended by a girl in her dads land rover (car had a rhino rack, b/c rhinos just roam the NJ countryside) and a cracked front axle (old man turned into the front wheels while they were at full lock).

a collapsed suspension + 164,000 miles put it to rest

I built my first car. A 1966 Corvair Corsa, that I modified and installed a mid-engined Chevy 327 (from a Corvette) and built for Autocross racing. It started my love for mid-engined cars and racing, so 20-something years later, I got my first race car, that also was mid-engined.

First cars were 1966 Dodge Coronet 440, and Corvairs though. Before that I had motorcycles.
