  • No, but my first street legal car of my own was a 1979 Pontiac Acadian.
    Mine was painted black with mag wheels and fuzzy black floor mats and aa cushy black leather dash board.
    I had a racing steering wheel and bottle caps from beer bottles as the knobs in my tape deck.
    It was a funny little car and It was a stick shift.
    I drove it to school everyday.
    It was indestructible. : )

    Kind of.  I had zero interest in learning.

    I really only drove for real when I moved to Phoenix.  I was 44.

    I was ready.  I knew I would not kill anyone.  I knew I would not kill myself.

    Before that?  I stuck out my thumb a LOT.

    Besides the usual taking busses  and taxis $$$$

    Something more we have in common. I passed my driving test when I was 44!

    My first car WAS a training wheel :P Or as good as... it was a daewoo Matiz and almost everyone makes fun of them.. but I loved my Tiz and Tiz and I were insane together.  Tiz had an engine size that was probably smaller than most lawn mowers but providing you didn't lose momentum it could overtake a lot of other cars and could pull away from the lights mega fast.

    I had a Toyota Corola two door. It was four cylinder but I got it going really fast. Especially during that high speed chase over the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge in 80 (of which I OUT RAN THEM) HA

    No.  My first car was brand new and I literally drove it off of the showroom floor.  I was nineteen years old and paid for it myself...every cent.

    $2190 if my memory is correct.  Ford Pinto.  Taxi cab yellow with a white vinyl top.  Four in the floor.  I loved it until my husband, in 1980, surprised me with a brand new granny-type car, a Cutlass Supreme.  My little Pinto was bashed in on all four corners but I didn't care.  Anyway, we sold it and for a few years I drove that Oldsmobile.  It was the only car I ever had that had an automatic transmission.  I soon bought myself another small car with a five-speed.

    No but it should have.  It was a Suzuki Samari.  They don't go very fast but they sure can roll!
