    1987 Audi Coup Quattro GT

    I loved that car, got it 2nd hand and my god was it fast, and being the Model Audi used as their Rally car at the time I drove it like one.

    1964 light blue Buick Skylark. My dad bought it for $40.00 and fixed it up for me. I believe it is still running today. I really had a lot of fun in and out of that car. Really wish I had it today so many memories.

    My second car was a blue Nova (I think a 1975) Anyway, it was a stick shift and we had to put stuff on the pedals so I could reach them. Miss it too!

    An `*kitten*-brown' 1976 Ford Escort. Great little car and roomy too! At one stage I had 12 people in it, albeit in the boot, front passenger area etc. Top car.

    1973 White and brown (lots of rust) :laugh: AMC Matador. It was 10 yrs old and I paid $300 for it. I loved it, rust and all! Washed it every weekend and cut up my hands on all the rust. I had it for about 4 months and spent about $1,000 fixing it every time I turned around!

    1993 Volvo 970 Wagon. (I'm 20, so it was a pretty old car when I got it.) I went to a small private school, so it was definitely one of the oldest and most beat up cars in the parking lot. Custom painted it bright metallic aqua.

    My parents still kept the car, even though the three of us each have our own and there are no other siblings to give it to. We just love it so much, even though it's the redheaded stepchild of our driveway (3 VW's, all pretty new)

    1999 Honda Accord. I had a grand old time in that thing.

    My sister inherited it and ended up rolling it 4 times on the high way because she was texting. She came out unbruised because she wore her seat belt. The car... not so much!

    Mazda Protege 2001 - Silver
    I bought it new, but had no money for any options nor to have it be an automatic. I remember the salesman saying "Miss, do you want to go for a test drive?" and his face when I answered "no thank you, I don't how to drive standard(stick-shift)."

    Went with a friend to get the car and he spent the next 2 hours teaching me how to drive it in the parking lot (I was going to be the one to put that first KM on that car!!!). I later sold it to my aunt who a few years later gave it to my cousin...so I guess it stayed in the family!

    Quite possibly the ugliest 1986 mustang ever built. The thing was hideous and I am not even sure it was safe to drive. The seat was broken, it wouldn't turn on half the time, and it was always breaking down on me in public places. But hey, it was a car and it was mine.

    Early 70's Chevy Vega.....I paid 200.00 for it and drove it for 8 months or so until it caught fire.

    Ha! , I once burned a '73 Vega to the ground. Stoopid primitive electric fuel pumps... I thought that for $35 I would have gotten more than one road trip outta that car.

    Mine was an '85 Chevy Cavalier. Haven't thought of THAT car in years!! Hell, I even remember the plates...LPB 575. Isn't that odd?!?! Loved that car...OH, the memories. :smile:

    That's funny how we remember something like that. My first license plates were M7M 616. :laugh:

    1976 Ford Torino Elite. Paid $300 for it and got $500 to junk it. Thing got about 8 miles to the gallon, had a bouncy suspension, and drank a pint of power steering fluid a week. Fun to drive and kick back in the back seat.

    Think the Starsky & Hutch car, but remove the Nike logo and put vinyl on the top. That's what I had.

    good question. I have no idea what year it was, or what model it was, but it was an OLDS, an old OLDS.

    White Mazda 626. I think it was a '93 because I graduated high school in '94.
