| My first car was a 1984 GMC Sierra long wheel based pickup - basically a Chevy S10. It was a 2.8 V6 with a 4 speed manual. Needless to say, there wasn't much one could do in it other than: drink, smoke, occasionally get laid. Hard to pimp a long wheel based truck. :( |

My first car was a 86 Mustang GT. I put a Flowmaster exhaust on it and painted it white with black Shelby stripes. What a great car, I miss it, and I think I'll buy another some day.
When I first got it I did have a bra on it for a little while though, pretty lame. :p |

my first car was a 1965 mustang coupe. I foolishly switched over to a dual exhaust with flow masters, lamentably give it a 2 inch raise in the back, horrifyingly put huge street tires with "Smoothies" wheels on it
bought it a brand new paint job , gave it a new timing chain, transmission, air filter. Redid the electrical and put a 2000 dollar sound system in it.
why! Why did you give me such a horrifying car when i was 15 how cruel thou art fate! |

I'm still trying to remove a sticker that reads "Keep your distance: Noob driving!" from the back of my car :p
It seems to work, though, no one has ever rear-ended my beloved Uno :D |

My first car was a 3 cyl. Geo Metro, 2-door 5-speed hatchback that got over 50mpg. The stupidest thing I ever did was blow it up. God I want that car now...
Notable stupidities:
- "Car surfing" down a dangerous road at 40mph or so, with my buddies on the roof clinging for dear life.
- I managed to spin my Metro out more than once on public roadways, even though it only had like 50 HP.
- I had an 80s Honda Accord 5-speed which was on its last legs, and I took it behind an Elder Beerman's store and drove it up against the wall of the store, utilizing it as a "line lock". I did a 2 minute burnout against the wall (had to pop the clutch in a few times to get it going) and put deep grooves in the ground.
- I had an 86 Mazda B2000 truck that I slammed into a huge snow drift at ~30 MPH (on purpose) with my cousin standing in the bed. Got stuck and had to go get my buddy's mom's 4x4 Pathfinder to yank it out. I still have pics and videos of this somewhere, I'll have to see if I can find it.
- My buddy had a mid-90s Thunderbird V8, and we used to drive it into store parking lots and drive up to the lines of carts the employees had gathered, and use the car to push the entire line across the parking lot.
- Donuts on FWD cars involving McDonald's trays... enough said.
- My cousin cut the wheel ALL the way at like 50 MPH in a parking lot in his crappy old Cavalier and blew out two tires...haha...have video of this one too.
- Hill jumping in Mom's Escort.
- Climbed a huge mound of grain/dirt/something, not even sure what it was, in my old truck... came back down and blew a tire on a huge rut. Had to call dad from a payphone because I got a flat... we spent the time it took for him to get there wiping the mud off my truck hurriedly with an old shirt :stongue:
- Drive my truck swiftly through a cornfield. The next day, before school, my dad came in the house and said "son, next time you drive through a cornfield, make sure you get rid of the corn stalks that are stuck on the underside of your truck" and then he left for work. Owned!
- I used to do donuts in the elementary school playground afterhours.
- One of my buddies lit a firecracker to throw out the window but accidentally dropped it... on a pile of other fireworks! Luckily we put it out quickly.
- Shopping cart bowling... have vids of this too.
- Making sexytime and getting caught.
Damn, come to think of it, I did a LOT of stupid crap with my cars in my first few years of driving... makes me sound like a bad kid :haha: |

Found a pic of this one. :) Still need to find the video, it's funnier because you can hear my cousin scream like a girl.

my first car was a '91 Buick LeSabre - dark metallic blue with blue cloth interior, spoked chrome hubcaps, huge comfy bench seats, column shifter, tinted windows, power seats (to this day it's the only car i've ever had with power seats!), non-working A/C, rear drivers side door never opened, and sometimes the trunk wouldn't open either... anyway it was a ing boat but i loved that thing to death.
i never did any stupid cosmetic to it, because i'm not an icy hot stunta... but i grew up with a bunch of guys who taught me how to drive [not like a woman] and since we were all best friends with nothing better to do, we ended up driving my car to a lot of places and did a lot of crazy stuff in it and to it.
so yeah, basically we were stupid enough to:
- race all the ricer kids in their Civics and Integras on the main strip that connected our city with a bunch of cities where our other friends lived (it was always fun to see the look on some stupid little wigger kids face when he realized he just got smoked by a little girl driving a tank with 3 huge black dudes in it)
- top it out to 115 mph on the Palisades Parkway (we had the speedometer buried since it only went up to 85mph, but had my friend Keith riding next to us in his Firebird so that we could gauge how fast we were going)
- do donuts anytime we were in a parking lot with loose gravel or snow
- take it offroading (i have nothing to say about this except... wow, impressive)
- park it in the lot of a Mexican grocery and crack the windows while my friend Dre pretended to beat me and i yelled out "ahhh! baby i'm sorry! stop!" just to see what peoples reactions were (lol, i still don't know why we thought this was a fun idea... chalk it up to being 17 and bored i guess)
we also used to sleep in it when we didn't feel like going home and didn't have anywhere else to hang out. there were so many nights that we used to pull it up behind the dugout of this little league park and just hang out there until we fell asleep. looking back it's probably a little weird, but it was no big deal to us.
i only had the car for 5 months before i totaled it (some stupid bitch that i went to school with decided to pass a school bus over double yellow lines and hit me head-on), and i went to the junk yard to pull off the hood ornament to keep as a souvenir of all the fun times i had in that car. to this day i still have the hood ornament - it's attached to my duffel bag which i use almost every weekend. |
