What was your 1st brand new vehicle?

[Member 1919122]

My 1st brand new vehicle was the 1984 Pontiac Fiero, 4 cylinder, red.
I was 21 at the time, playing bass guitar in my wedding band.
So many great times with that car.

1981 Ford F-100 Pickup.
300 ci straight 6.
Manual transmission.
Medium Metallic Carmel color.

No AC, rubber floor covering.
Just a basic truck.
At the time the price was under $10,000.

My mom's first brand new car was a 71 Cutlass Supreme Convertible, not the 442 though. It was a tacky yellow color. I remember riding to school in that thing all thru grade school. Not the coolest car to ride to school in the mid 80's, but I'd do anything to get it back now.

So my first brand new car, not my first used car I got got when I was 16, was a 1997 Honda Accord SE in what Honda called the color Black Currant Pearl. Really a sharp looking car when all cleaned up.

My very first car, not brand new, was a 1975 Mustang II fastback, midnight blue metallic. Drove it when I was 16 up until I got my 84 Fiero... Like this but not the Cobra version.

So can someone tell me the difference between this forum / threads and the Entertainment / Off Topic forum / threads. Seems redundant. Like to me this is an off topic conversation right?

It seems classier in the VIP area? One would have to ask Rob why there are more than one off topic area. I would like more than two sub forums under sports. NFL which is football and MLB, which is every other sport known to mankind, could use some improvement.
The layout got somewhat buggered when we changed software. It must not be that easy to fix.

Yeah, we'll just work with what we have. The site still being here is a luxury at this point

My first new car was a 1985 Hyundai Excel. Though a long-established Korean company, it was brand new in the USA (ads had to use the tagline "Hyundai - rhymes with Sunday"). It was so dirt cheap that I could easily afford the top GLS trim. I loved the car so much that I hated to put in up for sale when I left California for Italy. When I returned to the US three years later, I bought another one. New.

A bicycle my parents bought me when I was 6 or 7?

I've never bought a new car in my life. I buy them when they've done the initial depreciation and use them until they are no longer usable.

Ok, so what was your first used vehicle then?

 

[Hadron]

A 1982 Datsun (Nissan) Sunny, which was about 7 years old when I bought it (I didn't buy a car when I was younger because I had no need for it where I was living).

This isn't my car (Dutch numberplate is a giveaway), but mine was this colour.
