Wise Master Buehrle Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Well, I just got my first car today. I still gotta go get plates for it and stuff though. It's a 93 Cavalier. Cost my mom 850 dollars. I insisted that I pay for it, but she was being all smart and stuff by saying if she bought it then I couldn't go nuts with it and it can be her backup car too. I pay insurance and gas and transaction fees and whatever else they make you pay. It's a normal blue. The normalest of blues. I love the stereo system. I turned on Pink Floyd's "Animals" niiice and loud and sat back in the chair and toyed with it for a few minutes. I've fallen madly in love with it. -_~ Also quickly preset radio stations to 97.9 and 95.9, the only good radio stations. It's got 119,000 miles on it, new tires, new battery, new starter, only thing that could be done for it that we are aware of in the future is it needing new shocks. Bought it from a really close family friend, so we trust him. What was all your guys first cars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 1967 Red Rambler Rogue convertable, with a V8 472 horsepower engine (pre gas crisis days) was fun to drive but so front end heavy with that engine that winters were a trip but actually good practice for my front end heavy 280 and 300 Nissan ZXs wish I still had my Rambler though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 And I'm excited... sheesh its your first car, dude, be excited! when you put a dent in your and Mr S puts a dent in his - think about the financial difference and you always make your first car a bumper car before you are done - your first car - party on, my man! Hell, I was 23 before I got mine so party on (but drive safely) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I was 23 before I got mine so party on (but drive safely) Oh don't get me wrong cw, I am very very excited! I sat in there just messing with things for a good half hour!

Mr. Showtime Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 when you put a dent in your and Mr S puts a dent in his - think about the financial difference Dents? I don't think so CW! Another 5 years of payments. Luckily I have less than 2,000 miles on it. I'm not big on taking it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Showtime Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Yeah I was just playing with Showtime, I would much rather have this car then a new one, since I probably still suck at driving. 21,000 grand vs $850. Tough choice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 My first car, 92 turquoise Grand Am(just got it maybe a month ago), bought for about $650, got the engine fixed up(my dad noticed it had little power when accelerating, we took it in, and we found out it was running on only 2 cylinders ), and so far we've put about $1,200 into it. Got a decent system in it, but still has the original radio...that will be dealt with ASAP, and I will get a killer system in that beast. I like it a lot. In fact, just the other day, I did exactly what Yahtz did and I just sat out in it for about a half hour just messing around with s***. It is fun as hell to do that. It looks a little like this(only in better shape) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 21,000 grand vs $850. Tough choice! 21,000 grand? Does that mean you spend $21,000,000 on it? If so, I think you overpaid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 21,000 grand? Does that mean you spend $21,000,000 on it? If so, I think you overpaid! Hahaha!!!!

moochpuppy Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 My first vehicle was a hand-me-down 1978 Chevy Suburban known throughout my high school as "The Beast". My Senior year I bought my first car. A 1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 door hard top. All black with a flame paint job. Nice big back seat BTW!!!

Goldmember Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 technically, my first car was a auction buy for only $400. it was a 1989 mercury tracer much like this one: i drove it once and it lasted me a week before engine blew. the next car i got was a 1991 toyota corolla--it lasted me forever with over 200,000 miles and never had a major problem with it.

Steff Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 now I have a 2002 Mercury Cougar (I luv my car! ). I didn't like that new body style when it first came out.. and the pit looks small. Is it comfortable? I love my new car. Just flipped 1K miles yesterday on the way home from work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
