'88 Pontiac Grand AM with a four banger and manual transmission. A/C didn't work and the car would occasionally overheat on really hot days so I would have to turn the vent on and turn to full heat and bring the hot air from the motor into the car. Made for some real uncomfortable rides.

1980 Dodge Colt RS ... Bright yellow!

amazingly fast, it had the dual stick transmission so you could drop the gear ratio at will.

It's OK for me. I did not finance my first car and it was a million years ago anyway. smile

First truck was a 1987 Isuzu P'up Space Cab. It wouldn't win any awards but it was really reliable. For a small truck the extra cab space was more than other extra cab mini-trucks. You couldn't really put people back there but it held speaker boxes, an amp and a CD changer nicely. smile I bought it in 1994 with over 90,000 miles and I put another 100,000 on it. Then my grandfather bought it and kept it at the river cabin. That's where it disintegrated.

A 196? Renault (eventually became Nissan). The engine was in the trunk, the trunk under hood.

I know Datsun became Nissan, didn't know about Renault.

1966 Red Mustang.......When I got married I still drove that car. My husband had a 1968 Red Mustang at the time . Baby came along and that ended Mutangs (for a while) I've been driving them (6) again since 1996 .
