Post a pic of your FIRST car!

1993 Toyota Corolla. Believe it or not me and my friend would always "rally" with our cars . He had a maxima and we would rally around dirt tracks....I ended up busting it bad while trying to "drift". yea that was me at 16
 
haha its all good bak3rme, that was me too. pulling the e-brake around every turn in the rain, with my FWD saying i was drifting lol.

Here's my first, still miss it:

My first truck was an 83 toyota sr5 4cyl 5 speed 170xxx ish miles paid $900 for it. Only have one pic of it that I remember but dint know where it is... I'll get one of it as it sits now. Blew the original engine at 210,000 ish miles did an engine swap in a friends yota truck and her dad gave me an engine as payment. The timer on that truck was at 220,000 I put at least 25,000 on it before it went BOOM!!!! That trucks only problem was me! Now it sits roteing in my parents backyard some day it will live again.
 
Hepar, my best friend's first car was a Civic identical to yours! He had his while I had my Sentra. Those were the days.

Nice! It actually served me quite well. Used to rally it up to the mountains all the time in the winter to go snowboarding when I should have been at school. Funny that my mom never put two and two together in that my car would return from "school" with snow packed in the wheel wells.
 
1st car i ever owned is a 1986 MR2. Bought it when i was 12 for a couple hundred with a blown clutch. I replaced the clutch but never got around to finishing the car. still have it.
Looks like this but in black

My first "truck", i say truck because its absense of a frame and having a sub-frame. I bought it when i was 17, saved up my money for a 2nd gen 4runner originally but couldnt find one so i ended up settling for this. What a piece of **** it turned out to be.... wasted so much money on repairs....:gun4:

It had a 2.5" lift in the back and a 3" in the front, such an effor just to fit 32" tires.

I learned to drive on a 96 Chrysler Town & Country minivan (same color, not same car)

I drove it like I stole it and the tranny went out. Pieces from the tranny literally dropped on the pavement and ATF was EVERYWHERE!


Technically my first car was a 94' Toyota 4Runner 4WD 3.0L V6

My first one was a 1998 4Runner SR5 3.4 V6 2WD. Too bad I don't have any before pics of when I crashed it... well here is how it looked last time I saw it. 65 MPH into a Honda Accord, and I walked away w/o a scratch or a bruise.

On to the second one: 2003 Toyota Highlander Base 2.4L 4 Cylinder. (Traded it, wanted to be in another 4Runner.)


Now my current one, 2003 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V8 2WD.



If you couldn't tell, I'm 17. lol. But those are my current ones, if your wondering how I payed for them, the 98 4Runner was payed off, the 03 Highlander was financed, (through my mom's bank, payments automatically came out them I gave the $ to her to put back in, so really I was paying for it, same with this 03 4Runner)

I have a job, I work at a friend owned shop and I get to work on Toyota's all day when I'm not in school! :D BEST. JOB. EVER!

Not me in this pic.

I will never forget my Dad asking me at the DMV regarding my behind the wheel drivers test, "Well how did you do son?" to which I replied, " I got a 100%". He then tossed me the keys to his car and said, "Congrats, here are the keys to your car. You can drive it home." A 1982 Blue Honda Accord. I was so stoked. That was in 1986 when I was 16.

Well I'm one of the young ones here. Only 15. :wow2: My Dad gave me his 1996 Toyota 4Runner SR5 with a 5 speed. It basically sits in the driveway and is driven once a week, if it's lucky. Yesterday I fixed the sun roof with a rag and a whole can of WD-40.

Here's a picture of the truck, but I have a blown head gasket, so I put my current means of transportation next to it.

I thought those boosted Hondas were pretty easy to make real big numbers with. I don't know much about them, just looks like a ton of work for 350 hp.
