Ford is bringing their Euro-specced stuff to China, the US is just a by-stop.

I had a marginally functional Saab 9000 turbo through school. A 2000 Kia Rio was the first car I paid for entirely on my own. I ain't proud of it, but you can't run from your past.

Cool, my gf's first car's a Beetle. It's more roomy than I thought. Plus seeing people punch each other as she drives by is hilarious.

My first pimpmobile since 2007. I still own her.

You guys damn near got me to cry a lil bit. My first car as a 89 Camry. Ugly, slow, but dependable. Best time of my life and all the freedom that came with it. Now my crazy ass little brother doesn't want to drive or have a car, and he has friends the same way. Must be a generational thing??? Hes 13yrs younger than me.

My two youngest sibs are the same way (8 and 12 year diff). I don't get it. A car has been integral to my identity since I learned to drive. But then, when I learned to drive, you could fill up the tank for a weekend on whatever change you had in your pockets.

I bought my first car a year ago. I worked all through school to pay for it:

first one on the right (orange) except mine has tinted windows.

Some asshole crashed into me while I was parked just last week so it's been a rough month for my baby

going to cost like 2.5k (500 out of pocket) to get the wheel well / front bumper and hood replaced. luckily there was no real structural damage.

1983 Buick LeSabre.

That damn thing was a boat.

I started out with a Volvo 740 -88 when I got my licence, not much of a chock when being swedish. But they run well and relatively cheap to repair and own. But could not afford it on the little student funding we got when I had to pay around 5$ a gallon (it cost about 8$a gallon now).

At the moment i have my SAAB 9000 -95 and my V8 powered TVR Tasmin 350i -84 (UK Spec) for those hot summer days.

I had 1.1litre citron saxo for my first car. Got pulled over for racing it 6 weeks later, crashed it 2 months later, replaced it a week later with an identical saxo....and then crashed that one too!

To you Americans, the cars big enough to fit between your paving slabs!
