I know there are threads about your current cars, but what cars have you owned since you got your license? what year, model, how many miles, how much did you pay (or your parents pay) and any cool stories about the car.

1st car - 1994 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition, poop green, 260,000 miles, I payed $600 for it haha rusted out but still ran like a champ, I put a system in it but I wired it wrong and my amped would overheat and the subs would shut off, I miss it, sold for $600

2nd car - 1993 Ford Ranger Splash 4x4, Red/Orange, 80,000 miles inherited it from my dad who payed $7000 in 1997, 33in tires + 4x4 = nothing can stand in my way, Little bro is taking it.

3rd car - 2002 Acura RSX Type-S, grey, 111,000, payed $7,500, cd player caught on fire and now I don't have a radio, so I hate it. also it's for sale.

pic of ranger and rsx, sorry no pic for the explorer

1st was a 1998 dodge durango. All 4 speakers were blown out, the a/c and heater did not work, you couldn't open the drivers door from the inside, and it got 9 miles a galleon. It did the job though.

2000 audi a6, its in my moms name but she has a new car and the only time she drives it is when hers is in the shop. right now its around 130k, and its the avant (wagon) model, with a ski box and bike rack. plenty of room for all my friends and my crap, good in the snow and has a bit of power.

so far this is the only car thats mine, but i have taken my moms new bmw when she goes out of town, and once im through college ill prbly look for a used audi or subaru or something

i think you'll notice that bmw's don't make the best ski mobiles. crv's on the other hand do make a pretty good ski mobile.

Must have been awesome to drive. too bad about being totaled. How'd that happen?

I have a 2004 forester 2.5x, red. It's great, fits all my stuff, good on gas, good in bad weather.
