What was your very first car

Be careful what you post. This is often a security question.

I had two of them! Both were stick shift. The first one was FIL’s and it was passed down to us, it was a really ugly cream/tan color. I think it had almost 200K miles on it and the body was rusting out so we sold it to a kid who worked for DH at the time, and he drove it for a few more years. We replaced it with a bright red one that crapped out on the side of the highway in a construction zone, the head gasket blew on it. Overall they were great cars!

My first car though was a Mazda GLC, bright blue, that belonged to a friend’s sister. I don’t remember the year. She bought it new, totaled it, fixed it up just enough to be legal and sold it to me for $500. There was literally chicken wire in the front where the grill was supposed to be. The front quarter panel and driver’s side door were smashed in. DH found replacement parts at a junkyard, put it back together and painted everything to look nice again.

I drove it for a while and it was totaled out yet again when an old guy fell asleep at the wheel and ran into us when the road curved but he didn’t. The old guy’s insurance paid out. Since it was still operational, we sold it to my brother who drove it for a while, someone hit him in it, insurance paid out again, and after that it was done for good. For a car that was such a shocking, obnoxious color it sure was an accident magnet!

My very first car was a Gold Ford Capri M2 1600 Gear

I freaking loved that car but it was impractical to keep so I sold it for triple what I paid for it ( to a classic car dealer )

& got myself a Austin Metro then after that a Peugeot 306 cabriolet ,

I don't drive anymore due to long term illness and the fact I was a bit of a nervous driver .

My very first car was a massive red 1970-ish Chrysler New Yorker that I inherited from my mother when she left after my parents separated. 

I was 18 in 1986 and my parents bought me a $750 1979 turquoise blue Corolla with a CHOKE!
My father slapped some red, orange, yellow pinstripes on it. I drove it for 2 years no problems, and then sold it for $750 when I bought my used Ford Escort.

My parent's bought "us" --my brother and I a 1984 S-10 in 1990.  I only drove it a few times before I left for college without a car (my brother had just turned 16).

The first car that I signed on the line for was with my DH and was a 1997 Nissan Altima purchased around 2000.  Before that I drove a 1990ish (I think?) Grand Am my Dh (boyfriend before marriage since 1989) or walked or rode the city bus. 

ETA: changed some dates

Mine was a 1966 Mustang. We sold it when we had our third child since we couldn't put three car seats in it! Dh's first was a 1968 Mustang and we still have it in our garage. It's been fully restored except paint, hoping our 15 yo grandson will want it!

My first car was a 1972 VW Bug - light blue.
