What was your first car?

Is that the same one you had at Wake? Didn't I borrow that car one time to go to a formal?
 
Got my driver's license in 1986 and my car history:

78 Civic with trunk, not hatchback
80 Prelude
82 Jeep CJ7, burned in fire in Boone.
94 Plymouth Neon - first year they came out. Grad present under the advisement of my older brother, the car enthusiast. rolleyes
97 Ford Taurus - required for sales job
99 Civic - still drive.
 
in 2003-ish, parents bought me a 1994 Volvo 850 Sedan. early 2006 they bumped it up to a 1996 850 Turbo Sedan that I kept until 2012 when I bought my first car.
 
Dad's got a '67 Chevelle SS that he's had taken apart since 1979. Once I get the $$, I'm going to buy it from him and rebuild it. Similar to this one pictured, but with a black vinyl top.

1967 was a great year for both Ford & GM.

1999 Black Ford Explorer. I was merging onto the highway one time and the engine just about fell out the bottom. I think it had 55,000 miles on it and it was completely shot. Total lemon.
 
The stock 396 that came in it was obliterated by the previous owner. When my dad purchased it for a show car, a '69 Camaro 302 was in it. When I rebuild it, Ill probably end up putting a crate motor in it, unless I can find an original '67 motor that isnt outrageously expensive. I doubt it though.

An LS3 (430 hp / 424 lb-ft) would be a nice motor for that ride.

First was a red 1990 Subaru Loyale station wagon. It was my parent's old car and I ... was ... cool. It was a manual with push button 4 wheel drive on the gear shift. Great for the snow and ice but not much power. You could drive in 5th gear, down hill, with a wind pushing and maybe break 70.

Second car was a new silver 2001 Toyota Corolla S that my folks helped me buy while I was in college.

1999 Ford Explorer Sport. I loved that car real hard. Engine basically fell out one morning Senior year when I started it at the Corners at Crystal Lake.
