Here's my first car.
1972 Ford Falcon GT Coupe. 351 cubes or 5.8 litre V8 Modified from 300 factory ponies to a whopping 560hp. It had 345 rubber on the back and 285 on the front
Here's my 2nd car. 1988 Holden Commodore HSV Group A (Walkinshaw). With a 5.0 litre V8 unmodified. Number 070 of 750 built, all in the same colour of Panorama silver, named after Mount Panorama at Bathurst. It won the grand touring race the Bathurst 1000 in 1990.
Third car and current car is KIA Shuma as an every day car and my fouth car and current car is the Scoob MY00 for fun and cruising.
Cheers,
Wrexy.

I started with a white '97 2.2l Honda Accord Aerodeck. You don't see that many around here compared to Japan. I really loved that car, but as it was an automatic I got bored after a while. By then SwissScooby bought a MY00 Sedan. After a fiew rides I knew what I was up to 
If there wasn't Subaru then Honda for sure

Mine was a 1972 Fiat 500, twin cylinder air-cooled. Great little car, wish I still had it, it wouldn't be as quick as the Scoob, but you couldn't half have some cheap fun with it!!!!

Have mercy.
1989:
My first was '77 Opel Kadett, which in UK would be Vauxhall... the smallest sedan anyway, "C-chassis". 55bhp. Price: 3000 FIM
1992:
Lancia Prisma 1.3 '89. 75bhp. Price: 30000 FIM
2000:
Impreza GT '00. 215bhp. Price: 300000 FIM.
What next? Some 3M FIM / 1000bhp car? Where's my lottery ticket?...

I can beat the lot of you. My first car and I'm throughly ashamed to say was a B-reg Lada Estate. 1500cc, 4-speed gearbox, 28mpg, 1 litres of oil every 1500 miles. You could get it to read 70mph on the speedo in second gear, tacho was reading 8000rpm at the time. To top it all it was Bright Yellow, and had a Brown vinyl roof.

1963 Ford Corsair, given to me by my uncle. Blew the head gasket within 2 days and upgraded to a Dolomite sprint. Not that much difference in performance with hindsight!

My first was a Toyota Corolla from 1976. Green with nice spots of rust-brown. And with that wonderful 1200cc engine (Not exactly the fastest thing on earth).
Current MY99 scooby is my 8th car.

Maffa,
Funny ay!!! LOL
The car was parked like this every night, about 1/2 inch before touching the tree and then we used to park my Dad's car in front of it and my Telecom Van in front of that leaving only half an inch between each car to make it hard for the thieves. Ford GTs were very high on the thives list back then.
The second car was fine coz I moved and I had a lock up garage.
Cheers,
Wrexy.
