    I was 18 years old, yes, 18. I saved money from my first job, flipping burgers at Hardee's and it cost me $600! It was a 1985 Chevy Impala, light blue, minor rust, a nice rust hole under the gas peal, but a crossbeam kept enough support. The car had snow tires on the rear when we bought it, and WOULD NOT pass emmisions, I had to redo all the wires, the O2 sensor, and catalytic converter! So I put in about another $1,000 of work into it. near the end I had some problems, had to keep my foot on the gas to keep it running, when first starting it, a leak in the radiator. As far as the cassette stereo, well it was possesed. It would turn on when it wanted, and then shut off, so I had a boombox in my car for the stereo. I miss that car! ( I even waxed it) My second car was a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix, 4 door, and I now own a 2003 Chevy Impala, I love my Impala, in fact, my old man has a 1965 Chevy Impala SS ragtop, it eeds restoration, but I have dibs on that car! thelma and Louise here I come, yes, it is red!

    2001 Volkswagen Beetle. Bought it used, all on my own, and had it paid for by the time I was a freshman in college. That car took me everywhere, and could parallel park like no one's business.

    It also had a tape deck. Maybe it's nostalgia, but I kinda miss my cassette tapes melting in the car console during the summer. So much fun to try and pry the welded plastic off the car parts.

    My first car was a 1988 Honda CRX, white, with wheel covers painted to match. It was my pride and joy, paid for by working 3 jobs, but I wanted to pay cash and not have payments. I kept it washed, waxed, detailed, and shining. I cried the day it died on the highway and I had to replace it. Let's just say I still have a framed picture of that car.

    Do you live in the city or some place small enough to get around on foot/bike? I couldn't imagine not having a car, I'd never make it anywhere!

    A 1972 Fiat Spider. Damn I loved that car. First husband sold it to buy a new Enduro bike. My second husband would never do something like that to me. :heart:

    72 Chevy Nova - handed down to me after 2 of my siblings had it. It was a piece of crap, you could start it without a key, but it ran like a champ. We use to pile 6 of us in it and cruise town. I even ran it dry of oil once, my brother dumped oil in it, and it fired right up, and went through another sibling. Awesome car!!
