    1992 Dodge Ram 3/4 ton diesel. I loved that truck, but it had over 600,000 miles on the original engine, and needed too much work to be worth keeping.

    Ah, yes, my first car. What a great little car it was. I had a nice little '90 Chevy Cavalier sedan. It was ten years old when I bought it and ran like it just came off the factory floor. Never had a single problem with it in the near two years I had it before I blew the piston rings doing 150km/h. That little car had guts, I tell ya. Nippiest little bugger I've ever had the pleasure of driving, and I've driven some very nice cars. Paid $800 CAD cash for it from the original owner, had it certified and Drive Cleaned by week's end and on the road.

    No power locks, no power windows, nothing fancy at all. Just a bare-bones car, but man I loved that little Chevy. My bud and I named it Dirty Little Whore :D 

    Didn't matter what the weather was like, that little car got me from Point A to B and back again with no worries, and always safely. There was a bitch of a blizzard going on one night in my hometown when I was on my way home from somewhere. Snow was already several centimeters thick on the roads and still falling fast. Anyway, coming a red, the back end started to slide on me. I barely even had time to react when I swear the car started to right itself. Stopped about a foot from the car in front of me.

    After I blew out the piston rings, my dad and I were reassembling the engine, a very long process since we could only work on it when we were both off work, when my dad called me up one day and said he was taking me to see a car. Ended up buying a Pontiac Tempest, man what a piece of shit that was. Put me right off Pontiac. Bastard was off the road more than it was on.

    I would love to get another old Cavalier like my first. I even had designs drawn up for sporting it up big-time and was in the process of working out a deal with a body-work guy when I knackered the engine.

    I count this as my first car since I chose and paid for it:

    Mine is actually silver with stock wheels. Totally stock everything really except the stereo. Goes hard when the situation calls for it though, I call him slider cos unlike his big brother's thats what he does if you take a corner too hard.

    First was technically a 2001 Cadillac Deville. That died 3 months later (blown head gaskets... Totalled the vehicle) and I wasn't even licensed at the time (last thing I did in the car was take my license test)...

    Now I have a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville. Much better than the Caddy.
