D3nZ 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 I got a Honda Civic Hatchback 01 last year, it was officially my first car. I haven't put anything in it, I already had the spoiler, mags, cd player and A/C in it. It was a special edition because it was supposed to be the last year that they made the official hatchback and went to the SIR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdcopp 1 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 I got my license in 98, so my first car (84 Honda Accord) was 15 years old when I got it, but it was solid and got around fine so I couldn't complain. The stereo will be nice to have, but don't expect the nicest ride ever. 4 grand will probably get you into something decent, I only had 1500 to work with at first and did alright.

Squirrel 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 90' Diesel VW Golf. My uncle sold it to me for $1500. If things go well I can get my license in 12 days. I've already got the reciever, but it needs some new speakers and maybe an amp sometime when I get the cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vapor 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 i got a g35 for my first car. I guess I am very lucky. I have since gotten rid of it, and currently drive a CTS-V. I am currently looking into selling the V and buying a used Maserati Coupe. They arent as expensive as they sound. You can get one with about 20k miles for under 40k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get one with about 20k miles for under 40k I was going to mention the massively high maintainance costs on a Maserati, but if your parents can afford to buy you a G35 and a CTS-V then I don't think maintainance on a Maserati should be too much of a problem.I was going to be getting a second gen AWD DSM this year after school, but I decided to save my money and go to Europe instead.

Fire0nIce228 1 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 my first car (which I got in may 04) was a 1985 toyota camry, shit brown in color. After I dropped the tranny out of it a year later, my grandparents bought me a 1993 saturn for 4000, which I am trying to pay them back for slowly but surely (repairs have me now owing them over 6k) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EBondo 233 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 I could have my permit now, but my parents won't let me drive the family car, so I have to buy my own car, and pay for my own insurance. And I have a whopping 652 dollars in the bank, with no job, yet. <_< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nigel 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 you'll be able to find something decent for 4 grand, consider yourself lucky for getting all of that from your parents.i'm looking at buying a 1989-1990 honda prelude or CRX. even though i'll only have my L, i may buy one this summer or just wait until a year from now. but i'm stoked on it. i already have 1500 in stocks and will earn around 2 grand in the next two months if i'm lucky. my budget right now is around 3000 CDN.. honda's are reliable as f*ck though and even their older models don't look out of date. good on gas too.preludecrx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zingbergeur 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 My first car was a 1988 Chevy Suburban. It was 11 years old when my parents let me drive it as a 16 year old. It was the rustiest car I have ever seen and got the worst gas mileage of any car ever made, but I loved it. I was lucky to get 11 mpg, and it used at least a quart of oil with every fill-up.

But there are just some things I dont love. I have had countless problems with the rear diff, and wheel hop problems. The dealers have been great, but its just so inconvient. I also want a more luxurious car, and something with a little more sex appeal. Plus come on, Ferrari Engine :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
