Not to freak people out or cast any suspicion on OP, but this question is a common security question now for identity purposes. Instead of Mother's maiden name, they ask for first school attended, first car ,etc.

A good topic, but you might post your second car, or most fun car instead.

To all the girls I've loved before. With the exception of the lemon Jetta I liked all of these cars. But the F10 is my favorite to date. The Saab was a cool but quirky car.

It was also one of the first front wheel drive American cars like that and smoke would just pour out of the front wheel wells when you laid on that big engine.

Would look like this:
The original Toronado was the first car I ever lost my mind over, but in 1967, I was riding a bike, and driving was years in the future for me.

My first car was a 1975 Oldsmobile Starfire -- the Olds version of the Chevy Monza -- which I bought in 1979 for less than some of the individual options I'm considering for an F10. First car in the US to have rectangular headlamps! My car was silver, with burgundy corduroy-and-vinyl upholstery and an AM radio. BUT... it set the tone for everything that followed: the car had a manual transmission ("four on the floor"), and every car that has been in my possession since has been a stick.

The second car I lost my mind over was the 1982 Toyota Celica Supra. Twin-cam inline six (sound familiar?), IRS, limited slip diff. I happened to get my engineering degree that same year. I started work on June 14, got my first paycheck on June 15, and got my Supra on June 27. :-)

The next car I lost my mind over was the E39 M5. That's still among my favorites. When the three-year lease on my 2002 M5 ended, I gleefully signed up for two more years. That and my first BMW (a '92 E34 525i) are the only two cars I've ever kept for more than three years.

Hah that was my first car too! But it was a 1988 360, and green. Looked slightly better than the picture, but still one of the worst looking cars ever.
