ORIGINAL: AnakinKenobe

My first car was an '85 ford tempo with no brakes, hows this kid get an Si????
no doubt! i feel a little haterism comin on. lets all sip a lil haterade together. my first pos was a 1976 plymouth ruster, er duster. i picked it up for 400 bucks and the a-frame was rusted out (little did i know) and the front wheels kinda caved in the first month i had it.

second car was a 1988 volkswagen jetta, blue on blue. put 400 bucks down and paid like 150 a month for a year. kinda ran through a cornfield fence in a 10 mph curve while doing 55mph. oops. had to pick the the exhaust up and put in the trunk for the ride home. also put 2 very pretty racing style scratched from the hood to the trunk. bratwursty. later fried the tranny doing burnouts by reving up to 6 grand in neutral then slamming it into drive. i was 16 i didnt think it could hurt, plus it made me look so cool.

third car was a 1983 ford escort 2 door hatchback, baby, 250 bucks. oh yeah, black w/ red interior. i was pimpin with my autozone tape deck (with detachable face) and 2 6x9's in the back. of course i ran it into the ground.

fizorth was a 1986 chevy cavlier 2 door hatchback for 650. big pimpin, the driver side door did not open on that one but the a/c blew like a champ. kinda blew the motor up on that one. it literally made a boom, and black smoke came from under the hood. no more workee.

fifth was a 1984 crx that i paid 2000 bucks for in 2000. little did i know it wasnt worth that. it was nice though, had fresh paint and ran like a top. unfortunately that was my first experience with a clutch so i kinda screwed that car to hell. ended up making the motor go boom on that one too. oops.

sixth was a 1994 oldsmobile achieva for 2500. the head gasket blew on that one, got it fixed. then the radiator went to **** and i cracked the block.

seventh was a 1984 chevy blazer for 1200, had the big pimpin deep dish "prime" 5 stars. driver side door stopped working on that one too. then the motor stopped as well, Lord only knows why.

eighth was a 1987 ford ltd with a smahed up trunk, got that for 700. eventually died of natural causes. had a 1988 mercury grand marquis parts car but i gave up on both of em.

ninth was a 1994 chevy work truck, single cab with 8' bed. got it for 4500. it was actually nice, never broke down. like a dumb *** i sold it to cover the down payment on a new suv, which brings me to my next car.

tenth was a 2003 chevy trailblazer that i kinda rolled the first month i had it. after insurance paid it off i took the money i had and bought my current car.

eleventh and final (so far) a 1991 civic hatchback dx. burned up 1 clutch so far, 1 motor, 1 tranny, the cv shafts were bad when i got em. got all new (to me) internals. lets see what happens.

btw, anybody wanna let me borrow their car, i'm a safe driver i swear.

ha ha ha. ya i'm 25 actually. i know i used pretty poor judgement for the most part of my driving career. most of those cars were junk when i bought em. i was an impatient kid that didnt know any better and i just wanted something to drive. anyway we are talking about 11 cars in a 9 year time period. so doin a little better than a car a year. i actually went through the first 4 in a year and a half. then I "went away" for a lil over 2 years. the next 7 cars were all in the past 5 years. i bought my hatchback early last year.
