What was your first car?

[Jens03GT]

I was thinking that it would be nice to see how far everyone has come. What was your first car? Was it a POS or was not too bad. Or better yet, did mommy and daddy buy you your first cobra? Just curious. No need to be shy. :-D

My first car was a Blazer. Not too bad. Better than most my friends had.

heh, 4 door blazer here

It was soooo sweet. Had the 4.3, I thought I was the shiznit.

Mine was pretty nice. It was a 2dr 4wd. I put hugh tires on it. It was pretty cool.

 

[Jens03GT]

Hey well I loved the hell out of mine.

 

[Jerky]

Sweet, I really always loved the 2d 4x4's. Mine was just 2wd Bought it used.

I had mine used. My parents said that if I wanted a car I had to have a job. I ended getting a good job and then I bought my parents blazer. I bought it for $1000. Good deal. That was what got me started on cars and stuff. The transmission blew and of course I did not have the money for it. So I did the next best thing. I fixed it myself. My dad helped but mostly did it myself.:thumbsup:

[CobraCallie]

[Jerky]

Sweet Callie. One of my best friends bought a '98 . . . I loved those soo much. Thats why I bought the '99, until the '03, IMVHO the '98's were the best.

Grandfather bought me a brand new Hyaundai Elantra on the day of my senior prom.

Pulled into the driveway after leaving the dealership and my mom took one look at it, called my grandfather and made him take it back. Why? "No child should have a brand new car."

Ended up with a used Toyota Corolla. Took a little washing and waxing but it was good as new. I miss that car sometimes.
