What cars do you have? - tanTALK

applehat · 11-28-2005, 11:41 PM

Im a car nut....so I thought id make a post :-P

This was my first car. It was my only free car.....
1994 Pontiac Sunbird LE
I had NO TASTE back then....

It was... a learning experiance....

I drove it around, and on my 16th Birthday, I traded it in for this:
1992 Nissan 240sx

My original intent for this car was to swap the motor and make it fast....
After its motor blew...I couldn't afford a new motor, so I got financing for a new car...

Subaru Impreza WRX:

My current plan is...

1. Sell WRX (tired of playing on it :-P)
2. Fix that 240.
3. Drive..debt free.

On a side note...the WRX is for sell.... ONLY $17,999!...anyone want it?

NOTE: PICs got deleted...oops :(.

my first car was a 1983 camaro (6 cyl) givin to me from my father. i always wanted a hot rod but my mom didnt want me to change the motor and all that stuff because "THE CAR RAN FINE" as if that mattered....so i blew the motor then spent some time putting in a 350 w/ turbo 350 tranny finally a iroc posi rear end beat the crap out if it and modified it more till i was around 18 signed up to a tech college where i ended up painting it....

ive also bought and sold cars till i was around 26 anything from a datsun b210 up to a corvette. currently i have a 2001 CHRYSLER 300M and my work car which is a 96 dodge avenger and the wifes car a 99 grand am and i still have my 83 CAMARO that is now flawless and runs 11.4 in the quarter mile.....and finally my current project which is a 1969 camaro probally wont see the road till another 7-10 years......

why i dont know...LOL

my first car was a La Mans Pontiac i think it was a 78...man i loved that car had to warm up in 80 degree weather it cost me a whole 100.00 to buy!!! then i graduated to a new Camaro..was cool back in the day..

mine was a 82 chevy citation 4 door! Two toned gray. A real rust bucket..floor was falling out. I remember going through puddles and getting my shoes wet. Oh god what a death trap that was.

My first car was a 1979 Ford Mustang!....At the time, I thought I had a nice ride, but the late 70's were nothing like the earlier models. It would get up and go, it just didn't look as sharp as most Mustangs. When I look at pictures of that car I just have to laugh! :P

My first car was a red 1986 Nissan 300zx that had t-tops, man did I think I was cool back then.

applehat · 11-29-2005, 01:03 PM

an 86 300zx is still cool

mikeytan · 11-29-2005, 01:16 PM

mine was a 1979 black trans am with t-tops. Hand me down from my mom. She cried everytime I pulled out of the drive in that car. She loved it just that much. I thought I was pretty cool driving it. I get in it now and wonder what I was thinking. Still have it in storage. It gets driven about once a year.
