Pictures of your first ride

[JackHoya]

I've always liked seeing pics of people's first cars on these forums so I'll start it off. The first car I owned was a black 1995 Nissan Sentra - a real junker in its own right, but have a special affinity towards these things b/c it's where I learned to drive stick. Amazingly, it managed to make over 10 round trips from DC to NYC during college.

I don't have an original pic of it (regretfully) but it is this car in black. What a beaut

Good thread. Here's my first "official" ride. As in, not my parents car and I paid for it. 1992 Pontiac Bonneville SSE. Sure thought it was hotness back in the day.. what was I thinking??

LOL. I had a coupe version of the 95 Sentra! Also the car I learned stick on hah.

Had an aftermarket sound system in it and thought I was the man back then

Since I am still on my first ride, I'll just post some pix of her the day I dragged her home.

She is much, much better now.

Thed, how long you had her for now?

 

[Thed]

Three years this past January. I have WAAAYYYY too much money in her to be giving her up any time soon either.

I don't actually have a digital photo of my first car - a used 1987 Mitsubishi Cordia, that's how long ago it was.

But here's a representative pic.

FWD and was one of the first cars imported and sold to US by Mitsu without involving Chrysler, its partner back then.

135 hp turbo

Thed, I was a truck guy as my first ride too (pic above). Until I drove a family friend's old Mustang II. The rest is history .... you ever plan on upgrading to a Stang?

Wow, driving in style for your first ride. What year did you own this? Are these original pics? If I had one of these in h.s., life wouldve been much easier I imagine

Those were my last 3 remaining original pics. Owned it from 1986 though 1999... my 2nd car basically from HS through college & postgrad. Most of the time until '88 I drove my Dad's Eldorado... lol. I wish I still had the Goat but all hindsight now, just fond memories.

My primary car was this... 1988 TransAm GTA with the 5.7 TPI. Had it since new up to '93. My first choice was a fox body GT 5.0 (triple white convertible actually) but my Dad said no... go figure. Well here's one remaining pic of me at ATCO... ran 14.7 stock and 13.3 on a 50hp spray and SLP headers.

Well I am going to get a somewhat cheap-ish DD to hold me over when the V8 is being put in the Ranger and she'll be a project truck. After that I'm likely going to spring for a new S550 GT.
