What car did you have at 16?

i had a 2002 ford escort automatic when i was 15
i was planin on moddin it, and thank god i didnt
some1 ran into me not even a year i had it
now im 17 and have a 5 speed 2003 protege with some mods done and plans to boost it REALLY soon!!!!
 
1989 Ford Probe GT. 2.2L Turbo, 5-spd, 2nd fastest car I've owned, spent half the time I owned it in the shop (that's not an exaggeration and I owned it for 2 years).
 
1994 Lexus ES300. A glorified Toyota Camry. It had over 110K+ miles on it when I got it. one of the best cars I've ever driven. I had a lot of great memories (aka adventures) with that car.

Don't hate...This is what I got at 16 and then at 17 I bought my CB Ms3. I still miss that Lexus IS badly
 
Great thread for you young whippersnappers, and us old fogies too. first car, regardless of what it was, i think we will all, always remember them well.

hahah nice little buggy there
 
Mine was a classy 1984 Hyundai Pony. I had 400 watts of raw crap coming from a 12" Phoenix Gold paper cone sub... That thing went everywhere... Mud, ditches, the police station... And numerous others I won't mention.
 
I had a black 85 BMW 325e. Straight 6 sittin on 15"gold BBS meshies. I bought it for 2200$. It was a great car until the timing belt broke and I overturned the motor. It was going to cost 1500 to fix it, so i sold it for a grand to my bro.

Not the prettiest to look at but if anyone on here has driven it, they will agree with me that it is and was the smoothest car on the road in its class....not to mention it had a sunroof AND cruise control. Neither of which my MSP has..

..and yes I know, the one in the link doesn't have a sunroof. I never took a picture of my actual beast...and now it looks like a pile of ash as I donated it to my local firefighters to use for training purposes.

I thought I posted this already, but doesn't seem so. Anywho, I got my license at 17. Got myself a 1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R, did I/H/E, Jim Wolf cams and ECU. The obsession began then, and 11 years later i'm still hooked on those motors.
 
Anybody remember the 89 Plymouth Horizon?


And I think I was more like 21. No ride before that - I rode the city buses mostly.
