No matter how many cars you own in your lifetime, you'll never forget your first car. It's as simple as that, I wanna see your first car! Here's mine, my 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme.

In embarrassed to say, it was this POS '65 Karmann Ghia. I once spent $300 at a strip club in East Dubuque, IL and it was money better spent than on that car.
My first car? A '33 Plymouth coupe. Dodge Hemi powered. OK, it was a 255ci lump, but it was fun. Pulled the hemi out, put in a 283 Chebby. 292 ci of more fun. Picked up my girlfriend at high school with it. Many good times. Sold it when I got married. Oh well. Sorry, but no pics.
1989 Ford Aerostar, 3.0l and a stick shift! Price = one clutch job. I still miss it sometimes. Nicknamed the penismobile
I wanted 4 things in my first car: V8, 2 doors, RWD, stickshift. I got 3 out of 4.
Converted the rear drums to discs, installed Cobra front brakes, did some pointless engine bolt-ons, put in a shift kit, H&R springs, Bilstiens, big sway bars, and an LSD w/ 3.73 gears. I thought it was a lot faster than it really was, of course, but I eventually decided to get a Supercoupe because I liked the car so much but wanted more power and a 5-speed.
Still have the car.
First one my father bought for me to take to college (not actual car).
First one I bought for myself upon graduating college (the Alfa).
My first DD, a hand me down from my parents. Mine was tan with yellow pinstripes.
First car I bought with my own money, except mine was completely faded to orange
First car that was ever all mine was a 88 dodge shadow turbo, unfortunately it was an auto and had lots of electrical problems from the precious owner trying to put in an alarm

Renault 4Cv. I think he bought it for me so I wouldn't get any speeding tickets. Flatout, downhill with a tailwind the best I could do was 62mph. 750cc, 3 speed transmission, ~20HP.
In reply to Hal:
A 4CV! That's pretty cool. My grandad used to have a Dauphine. Different car, just as slow
