Default What was the first car you bought?

Mine was a 1994 Ford Mustang GT (white). I think I paid $6500 for it

It looked kind of like this:



I learned to drive on a 1991 manual Honda Accord though

The first car I actually paid for was a 64 Fairlane. The first car I bought off a lot was a 64 Vette. The first new car I bought was Car and Driver's best bang for the buck---90 Mustang 5.0 LX.

My first car was a New '94 Ranger 4-banger that my mom financed and I paid most of the payment on when I was in HS.

The truck stickered at $10K and we drove it off the lot for $8,300. The first car I personally bought on my own was a 99 F-150 which I still have. I drove that off the lot for about $18,500 in 2001.

(I will post pic later as I just found a pic of the Ranger when I moved.)

The first car I bought was my 1969 Chevelle SS393 which I still have and paid $450 for. My first and only brand new car I bought was a 1990 Mustang GT but I don't remember what I paid for it. My first used car I bought from a dealer was a 1994 Thunderbird V8. I bought it for Amy and then took her Toyota 4x4 for my offroad toy.

Actually had to think about this. The first car I bought completely for myself was actually the Vette at age 30. Other than that I had either inherited cars temporarily, but mostly drove my Jeep from age 17 - 30.

The next will be a Ford GT . . . as soon as that blinking light in Sean's beater, uh never mind.

First car I bought with my money was a 1990 Toyota Supra turbo. Drove it home after laying down $300 bucks.

I remember when I was looking for my Mustang it was January of 2000. The newer body style was out, but the GT's were too expensive for me. I almost bought a 1999 V6 that some kid had dressed up to look like a Cobra

My friend Jeff (Jeep) told me that was a major car party foul and made me by the 94 GT instead. What a good friend
