what was your first car?

dont ask. i paid cash for the stupid thing brand new and then traded it off two years later...
 
My mom bought me a Suzuki sidekick sport when I was 15. It was a good little 4WD until I wrecked into a land rover. With the insurance money I got a 98 trans am when I was 16. Man that car was fast as hell. I got into alot of trouble in that car. Sad to day I sold it recently for almost nothing. Next up is a Corvette... Hopefully soon...
 
my first vehicle was a 1980 chevy 1/2 ton with a built small block on 35 inch tires. loved it but gas got expensive and at 8 miles to the gallon it had to go
 
1989 chevy silverado single cab short bed whoot whooot lol no pix tho :( but it was a sweet lil beefy truck
 
my first car was a 86 honda crx carburated (sp?) and it was a 5 speed. learned to drive stick in the mountains of northern cali. it was a piece
 
first vehicle i owned was a 64 ford econoline van
my first new car was a 1973 chevy vega, 130hp, and i added an exhaust and drove that thing for 9 yrs and 3 engines!
 
that vega is cleannnn (cool)

my first was a 1991 2wd toyota pickup i got from my dad, still have it too! it'll get some new wheels and a small lift eventually
 
Well I want to swap out the slushbox for a 5spd, and If I get real ambitious, swap out the FS-DE for the KL-ZE and then go turbo of course, but thats all up in the air who knows if it will actually happen
 
My first ride was a 1989 mazda rx7 gtus.13b motor with racing beat 4 barrel carb setup thing was nasty acouple other mod's also but that was my first ride.I still see it from time to time.

My first was a 95 mazda MX-3 with 1.6 dohc 5spd, got t-bonded by a drunk drive, but i worked at a body shop and was learning upholstry so i bought a quarter panel for dirt cheap re-did the interior and painted it 2001 porsche metalic black (very similar to the current 3 black mica) and drove it till i joined the military. missed it so much i bought a new 2008 mazda 3 gt with navi (black mica) in august 2007. I had so much fun in my MX-3 especially after the paint job, it was the nicest mx around. My wife had a 95 pearl white 626 with the klde for her first car worn valve seals and egr valve did a numbers on engine but filling the cylinders with dexron 3 and sitting over night brought compression back and drove it for 3 more years tell it got a klze with headers and underdrive pully and rx8 wheel (damn shoulds kept the rx8 wheels i bought 300 for my 3) wireing nightmares and a cloged cat ended her life and now she is mexico.
 
i have owned way to many mazdas(naughty) to bad they do not have an suv that tows. that may cause me to stray(headshake. wife is pushing me toward a new f350 so i can tow my toys from duty station to duty station. Mazda needs to puts towing power in the cx7 and cx9!!!!
