I waited until I finished university and had my first full-time job before I was able to afford a car. Before that it was the bus. So I really anticipated getting it. At the time, I was crazy about sports cars so I got myself a Fiat Spyder. I loved my little car although it definitely was challenging to drive during the winter. What was your first car?

I got my first car shortly after I got my license. I had a job and I wanted to be able to visit friends that lived in the next town (15 miles away). It was a little Ford.

My dad bought my first 3 cars. I had one as soon as I had my license. I believe it was a Ford Fiesta - it was a junker car. I then got a Escort and then a big old boat! I can't remember what the 3rd car was - it was like a tank.

I had a 1980 Ford Pinto Pony. It was a five-speed. The exterior was white and I got it for $200, but of course getting it running well took a bit more than that!

My first car was a red 1995 Toyota MR2. I got it by working two full time jobs for a month and saved up enough for a good down payment. It was the first time buying one all on my own. It looked like a little Ferrari and I got a lot of compliments on it.

My first car was a tiny little white Fiat. I bought it used for $400. and paid $30. payments on it until it was paid in full. It had a straight shift, was old and I was so proud of owning my car, especially after I doubled up on my payments and paid it off pronto. My mom had to sign for me, but I paid for it myself.

I got my first car shortly after I got my license. I got a little 4 cylinder Daihatsu Charade. I don't think they make them anymore. Even though it was a little tin can on wheels, I was so proud of it. I ended up crashing it and then selling it. Anyone ever have a Daihatsu?

If you guessed a GTO, you are dead wrong. I drove a hunk of junk -- an old green and white Rambler that had been around before the Mayflower. My first real car, however, was a green GTO. How I loved that car and moved heaven and earth to buy it. Though used, it served me well. Those were the days.

My first car was the one my mother drove. It was an old run-down white station wagon I didn't want to be caught dead in. I finally got my own blue Chevrolet Malibu Classic. I loved that car so much I bought another one just like it when I bought a new one again. It was the same shade of blue.

I got my first car long after I was married and supporting myself. It was a simple Nova but I was so proud of it and made the payments faithfully every month. I was also supporting my children, so that was a big accomplishment for me.
