My first car was a 1994 Acura Integra LS Sedan.

I still have it It went from daily driver to project car

 

First car and still my car is an '07 IS350.

 

My first car going back to high school year in late 90s was fully-loaded, white leather, white 1991 honda accord sedan, with the good old clear corners/bumper lens, and painted white grille. I still miss it.

 

87 Toyota Celica ST back in '03

 

First car was a 2004 Mustang 3.8L Pushrod V6, 190hp 220lbft (truck engine), 4-speed auto. 40th anniversary ed.

 

86 Honda Civic base. 4 speed, 55-60 hp, and it burned more oil than gas. My first car cost $1200. I have come a long long way.

 

1989 Ford Escort my wife had when I married her. Lasted a year before the transmission blew, so we bought a Corolla.

 

Some of you guys were lucky! I got a hand me down 1990 Hyundai Excel. No Stereo, no power steering, no power window/doorlock, and NO AC!! And it would take 2 blocks to get to 45mph, even got my first ticket for running a redlight in it because the car just couldn't accelerate fast enough to past the green light.
I saved up so hard for 6 month and bought a Corolla instead, I still remember the day when I got in the corolla, I had tears in my eyes since the car drove soo "NICE" compare to the hyundai.

 

Looks like my brothers first car will be my 01 es300, giving it to him with about 190k then. I might pick up a 2nd or 3rd generation gs or 05-06 es330.

 

Haha you guys dug this thread back up but keep em' coming.



Whoa, I can only imagine lol.

One of these came into the shop I work at and I had to drive it around after a trans fluid flush and I was very surprised at how slow it was. I'd rather watch paint dry than drive one of those again.

Your brother is gonna have a great first car, at 190k the ES is just breaking in .

 

^ needs some work, rear main seal is leaking slowly, oil pain is leaking which i will take care of this summer, and rear struts are dead. Im hoping i can get away with just changing the struts and mounts and the springs are still good

 

It all depends on how bad the struts are. Is your car like a trampoline when you go over bumps?

 

No not yet, theres just loud noise going over bumps but i might just get some new springs for 80 bucks

 

My first car as a mom's favorite. It was brown - more poop colored than cool brown. It was a Gran Torino Brougham. This meant it had no cool features like starsky and Hutch had in their Torino. Instead mine as a faux-vinyal half roof, a 289 under the hood and an AC system that quit the day I bought it. I drove the crap out of that car. When it hit 100,000 miles the tranny fell out and the vinal leaked enough to open up a rust hole over the rear speakers causing rain delayes when the speakers in the back deck got too much rust water dumped in them.

 

89 nissan pickup - 6 different paints a dent in the tailgate from a bat bamboo holding the headrests in place and house speakers in a bandpass facing down sitting on paint cans full of paint lol - damn
