I don't have a picture of my first car, but i searched online and found some on google... unfortunately the sites no longer seem to have the pictures up, so the google image return page will have to suffice. http://images.google.com/images?q=96+intrepid+maroon&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search

Basically that, a '96 maroon intrepid. Bought it used (still fairly good) in '99 and I'm still with it. While it mostly just sits in a parking lot during the school year, I've still found it to be fairly hardy at the whole not breaking down thing and expect to have it for a few years more.

now if you can imagine better front bumper, and sides the you got it, I spent all summer working at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk mopping up hurl and lung butter. but it was worth it, and I still got it.

What's wrong with Civics, now? It gets me where I want to go, doesn't cost a fortune, runs for ages, and gets reasonable gas mileage. So I may get folded inside one day when I hit a squirrel, big whoop. I can live with that.

Oh... Wait..

And, "lung butter?" What the hell is lung butter?!? [addsig]

A friend of mine has Fierro, what a clunker lol. The sad part is, once he gets it fixed (puts in a new engine). He's going to sell it because he doesn't want it anymore, but if he actually kept it and got it in REALLY good working condition it'd be worth a lot of money. However, it needs quite a bit of work lol. Such as, it probably can go 210 m/h (130km/h) but it would be safer to ride a derailing rollercoaster [addsig]

I just bought a 2001 9C1 police package Impala for $6500. It's a 3.8Litre supercharged V6 with air induction and catback dual exhast, 240+HP, I've only got it to 210KM/H, You need a runway for any faster. It has 110,000km on it. Used to be a York Regional Police car for anybody living in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) I'm Representin' the 905 for anyone living in the area. This car has probably helped bust countless potheads in its day, now it see's more herb than a Cypress Hill Concert Gotta love the irony of it . The only damage on the car so far is a dent in the shape of a face on the hood, can only guess what thats from....

That looks class Frag, how much it set you back?

Round about 1K US Dollars. What I would really like is something like DeathToLag's bike though. Damn that looks classy.

On an unrelated note, I might have gotten a cheap Kawasaki Ninja 650cc from an Uncle in Japan, but it got flattened in an earthquake. One of my life's greatest might-have-beens

All I can say to you american guys is WHAT!? Errm... first cars, and you post a 3.8 litre thing? How do you ever insure that? The others aren't much better. They look like they would either cost more to insure per year than the cost of the car, or simply be refused by the insurance company for a first car I don't get it...

A_S,

It's more like http://www.kiteworks.co.nz/videos/perrin_7s_jump.mov

Jeff, as bad as you think your situation is, it's far worse here regarding insurance. For me to get insured on my mothers seat ibiza which is a 1.3 litre it's over 4000 euro. There's some loophole where I can get insured for one month for 60 euro though. [addsig]

Ok, I know us Americans are supposed to be ignorant of other cultures and there measurements, but umm, any time in a car at all looking at the dials and stuff should be able to tell you that a kilometer is shorter than a mile. 210 m/h would realistically be like 336 km/h.

Anyway, I can't see how you could possibly buy a flaming red sports car to start off - those will just attract speeding tickets like nothing else.

I gotta say, I think Gimp's first two pics are pretty ugly as well.

If your referring to me, the insurance company considers my car is in the same class as a 3 cylinder Geo Metro , and I'm Canadian guy, I only pay aboot $100Cnd a month for insurance. Have you ever driven a supercharged 3.8 litre thing...If not thats probably why you don't get it.

Smoke, I'm a fan of your car. We can be Impala buddies or something.

Whoops, I converted it the wrong way, sorry about that. Yeah, it's 338 km/h. ~smacks self, and curses English measurment system~
