    A '94 Oldsmobile Acheiva and I hated it! I paid for every penny of it myself, but my parents refused to co-sign on the loan unless they got to pick the car. I got rid of it as soon as I could!

    1967 Cougar XR7- GT. Bought it for $100 out of the junkyard with a blown motor, no trans, and a 9" 4.11 rear end. I pulled the blown 390 out of it and replaced it with a 351C 4V I built myself. It ran high 11's on slicks, mid 12's on 295/50/15 street tires (slow by my standards today lol...not bad for a years work from 15yrs old to 16yrs old).

    Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of it anymore (ex wife...:mad: :angry: :explode: :grumble: )...but it looked almost identical to this one, down to the color and the Indy Mag rims:

    Now there was a work horse of a motor. I had a 351 Windsor in my '77 Thunder Chicken. Awwwww...... the memories. :)

    My first car is a black '99 Mercedes Benz E320 4Matic.
    I love her to bits! She was my mom's from 2000-late 2010 (when I first started learning how to drive) and then things like the airbag stopped working so she gave the Mercedes to me :laugh:

    Sometime last week she got rear ended while I was at school... my dad and I are fixing her up but I'm super pissed that the person didn't leave a note...

    1981 Buick Skylark coupe. I inherited it from my grandmother in 1992 with 18,000 miles on it. It looked like it was fresh off the showroom.

    My first car was a 1997 Saturn SL. It was black with gold sparkles and it was really my dad's second car but it had some problems so he told me I could drive it until it died. When it did die I saved up my money and bought THE SAME CAR!! But that one was a funny pastel green color and I loved it. I drove that thing for 4 years and it moved me from Minnesota to Florida with my whole life in the backseat. :laugh: I traded it in in 2009 when I was informed it need $4000 worth of work... which is I think what I paid for it in the first place.

    6 years ago I got a 94 Pontiac Bonneville. It was an ugly gold color, I kept it for 2 years then bought my current car on my own- a 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Unfortunately it's also the same ugly gold color.

    1991 red Ford Escort. I loved that car! I had it for about 4 years before it broke down. :( Can't really complain. At that point, it was 18 years old and...well...it was a ford. haha.

    Pontiac LeMans convertible. Needed a new muffler and was super loud til it got one. Loved that car and was totally surprised when my parents drove it down the street and pulled up to our house with a car for me!

    I had a 99 dodge neon sport. Had that thing for 8 years and didn't have a problem with it until it's last year and half. Just sold it a few months ago. :(
