My first car was cool as he'll. I had it through college and sold it in 1994. I should have kept it and made it a restoration project but was young and stupid. I miss her to this day.

Oh my, I might be shooting myself in the foot. In high school I had a 1987 Escort GT with bucket seats, alloy wheels and leather steering wheel. It was a 5 speed with direct injection and burned 1 qt of oil every 2 tanks of gas. Here it is, only mine was black:

After that I picked up my first real car in college. My cousin was the web designer at Street Glow and got 80% off neon lights. I had neons underneath, on the doors, rear window, dome light, under the dash, and a knight rider red light on the front. I also had vinyl "Street Glow" on the rear and "XYSTER" on the windshield. I made those myself with an Xacto. Yeah, I was "that" guy. That was 10 years ago.

My first truck (several cars before this)... convertible V8 S10, complete with dumb foglights and gay chevy plate (and yes, neon rear plate frame).

Hahahhhaa

 

A turbo one also made an appearance in an episode of knight rider. Everyone in the family had a fuego at some point. Dad, Mom, And me all had a Fuego. Great little cars, but impossible to find nowadays. :(
