Hmm the first car I ever drove was my moms 1993 Mazda MVP which amazingly still runs after a couple of idiotic accidents caused by idiotic drivers hmm.gif

I know currently drive a 1997 Ford Escort sick.gif, yes it sucks but it is a good first time car for me, no real modding done except for my 2 12" subs which I need a new amp for..

I plan to buy another car later this year smile.gif

2001 Renault Clio Alize 1.4 16v, me and my Dad had 130Mph out of it before thinking we might blow the engine.

Still got it actually, handles well. Better than all the crappy "modded" cars most 17 year olds have in the UK.

What do you do with a fast car in Houston?

I have never been over 80 anywhere around there pinch.gif

I love it when I see a Ferrari or Lamborghini in bumper to bumper traffic on the Katy Freeway laugh.gif

I am not sure how fast my Tahoe will go - the fastest I have gone is 90 on I-10 between Houston and Beaumont.

First car was a 1989 Peugeot 205 1.8 diesel. Top speed was supposed to be just over 90 but managed to get 100 out of it lol.

A Vauhall Chevette 3dr hatchback, which my old man cristened 'the clockwork orange' - when I sold it to a 'mechanic' he apparently told a mate of mine that "you can pour oil in the top n hear it splashing outta the bottom"

It was never raced or rallied tho whistle.gif
VLL
Mine was a 1987 Mini 1000, with a MG Metro 1275cc 75bhp engine, which i forgot to tell the insurance about whistle.gif
That was back in 1991 when I was 17 and could get away with that sort of thing.

Was a quick car, no weight and a powerfull-ish engine made it lots of fun. Had it for 2 years then sold it to a stoner who managed to roll it a week after I sold him it.
And anyone who's ever driven a original Mini will know how difficult it is to roll one of those things.

My first car was a 1972 Mark 3 Ford Cortina GT, a very nice car to drive. What I really wanted was a Mark 2 Lotus Cortina, but couldn't afford the $15,000 the guy wanted back in 1986. Took it for a test drive, it was insanely fast.

my first car was an 84 ford ranger two seater, four banger. man what a POS, one mouth after i bought it i had to rebuild the engine (2.3). but after that rebuild she ran like a trooper, far from a speed demon but very reliable. now i was hoping that it would have been good on gas but no way. it had 85 HP yet it chuged gas just like a V-8.
