I had a 1985 burgandy Chrysler Laser, I don't think I was ever more excited about anything in my life!!! I skipped school so much I'm surprised I graduated LOL!!!! Luckily my parents didn't find out I was skipping school until I was almost done AND I was getting good grades so I felt like they had no argument, LOL I wasn't the smartest person as a teenager, lol

I still have my first car. A silver 97 Honda Civic hatchback. I love that car.

A 2000 Ford Focus. That thing was frighteningly a death trap because it had so many problems and quite a few recalls. I was seriously looking into exchanging that thing for something more reliable, but it caught on fire before I could look into selling. It, literally, burned in flames. I mean LITERALLY. It happened while my mom, my sister, and I vacationed in Mexico while it was parked at my deceased grandparents' house.

Luckily, no one was in the car, and even if it was at their house, the house walls were made of adobe. Therefore, the house was NOT affected, especially since my mom and some of our relatives were sleeping inside the house. It happened early one Saturday morning a day after my grandfather's funeral.

I swore that would be THE last time I'll be an American-made car especially since it was a brand new in the market vehicle at the time. This time, I have a Mitsubishi Galant which is MUCH more reliable. I've had it for two years now.

It's not technically mine because it is not in my name but the car I drive now is a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee

I hear ya about that. Anyway my first car was a 2002 Cavalier. I loved it, but I have a Pontiac G6 now...soo much nicer.

KissMyGrits · 04-28-2006, 03:53 PM

My first car cost me $500 and was a 1974 dodge coronet. We called it the brown boat because it could go thru huge puddles!! LOL!!

Fleet · 04-28-2006, 04:44 PM

My first car was a '66 Dodge Dart GT V-8. Owned from June, 1979 to April, 2002, but I was not the regular driver of it from 1995-2002 because I bought other cars (Cadillacs).

The Dart was very reliable and being a car guy I modified the engine. I just may buy another Mopar someday (something like a '69 Dodge Coronet R/T 440-Magnum).

'88 Mazda B2200. It was pretty cool..except durring winter time. That little thing would slide all over the road. Which was fun when intending to do so, but inconvenient when you need to come to a stop.

Brieannas21 · 04-28-2006, 06:58 PM

1989 Buick Skylark I got that car when I turned 16. My mom and dad didn't want to buy me a new car, so they bought me a old one so that I could bang it up LOL.
