well my first car was a 1998 mitsubishi eclipse gs loved that car a fun drive it was also my older brothers 1st car, and my oldest brothers loaner car while his jeep was for lack of better words dead. plenty of fun stories in it like having the **** thing die on the highway when i was going about 70 trying to pass someone. Then theres the time when it was pouring rain like absolute pooouring and for some reason in the middle of the night no clue no explanation on how but the sun roof opens up and floods the car. Still loved that car lol

had a 92 F150 for about 6 months before i turned 16, in that time i modded the engine (5.0), dropped it 2 inches, and put a complete system from the HU to subs, took the back seat out so it was a 2-seater. Rolled it going 70 around a tight S-turn.

Got a F-250 4X4, lifted 4 inches, put manual lockers and a new paintjob after someone nailed me. Had ranch hand bumpers front and back. 7.3 diesel with K&N and exhaust with 4.10 gears. That thing would smoke the tires, i miss both of these trucks.

Sold that to get a 97 Maxima, had CAI and system, thats about it.

Then got a 92 Ranger after i fcked up and my parents took my car away, didnt do much to it at all, put clears all the way around it and 2 15s in the back with a alpine deck.

Now i have my 02 Ex. Bout to put a 15" Q with alpine 1000 watt, running stock HU and speakers though.

Ok, i know that was more then my first car, but its only been about 5 years since my first truck.

1999 Chevy Cavalier. Not to many crazy stories, because it really can't do much. I got it from my deceased step-great grandfather (don't ask) and it had 26K miles on it. I really can't complain about the miles, but as far as options, I'm glad he picked A/C at least. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

But as far as mods go, I've added a new suspension, wheels and tires (which someone tried to steal, but couldn't) 2 systems (one stolen, i'm on the second one right now which i am rebuilding).

But overall, not bad. It gets me from A to B and it will last my until the end of college *Hopefully* so by that time when I get a real job, I can buy a kickass car to be proud of.

my first car was a 79 accord - I crashed that POS into a wall on the Williamsburg Bridge NYC....Grabbed my door speakers and walked the closest auto shop for an assist - he offered me 100 bucks for the car on the spot and I told him to grab it from the bridge cause the wheel was sideways and I coudent drive it.....

I took my cash and I walked on down to the subway with my cash and speakers and went to work

True story........

My first car was a '69 Mercury Marauder. It was sitting in my back yard and had been abandoned by my parent's landlord. I had just turned 16...1973...and had my learner's permit. He sold it to me for $50. I put a battery in it and it started on the first try. Registered and insured soon after then it sat for a month or so until I got my license.

First car I got laid in, first time laid to...big back seat.

Six months later I blew a stop sign and got broad sided totaling the car.

It was a bomb but for $50 you can't go wrong.

first car was a 91 Corsica. One day, me and my g/f were driving, stopped at a red light when all of a sudden i hear loud exhaust from under my car. I pull over, look under, and my exhaust had ripped in half right next to the *****. I had to drive home embarrassed that you could hear me coming about A mile away. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

my first car was a 1984 ford tempo, was a pile of shit, drove it all my high school years, in the winter you'd go to kick off the snow and slush stuck in the fenderwells and pieces of rust would break with it, topped out at 96 mph.

1991 Mustang LX. 4cy auto. Had a whopping 90 something horsepower. No deck, no speakers, everything stock, except I'd lowered it 4"s in the front and 5 in the back. Couldn't get the jack under with the low pro tires on it. When the people bought it, they had it towed and it was too low to get on the ramps. Me and my dad had to pull up on each side just to get it up there. Also nice white Enkei mesh style rims. Didn't actually get to drive it though, my dad gave it to me when I was 15 and I ended up selling it before I turned 16.

Before:

After:

Still looked like sh*t, but was better than before.
