91 RS. 6 banger with flowmasters and IROC Daytona hood. Got plenty of stares but it just couldn't deliver. So I moved up to a 92 305 Firebird and a 93 T/A. The only thing I really miss about that car was the fact that it was so easy to work on compared to the T/A, and those rims.
I can't scan my pictures of it, but it was a 1996 Grand Am. It was red, and had the 3100 V6. However, after the camshaft seized and broke, my father gave it to a charity. I didn't get over it until I bought my third (and current) car (94 firebird).

It was a 96 Beretta with 26k miles on it and in perfect condtion.....i didn't have that much money for anything to make it look "cool" so i just shined the hell out of it. Its ok now though, i have my 01 SS! Everyone, if they can, post up a pic of ur first car!

My First car was a 1978 Caprice Classic Landau 2 DR Fully Loaded.
Was my dads first car then he passed it down to me, so I wanted to do a little bit of work to it cause at the time it was my first car and I thought it was pretty sweet. Came with a 305, had that ripped out and put a mildy built 350 which I bought off my uncle for dirt cheap, car went alright for what it was, still a tank, but a nice cruiser!
Mild 350, 2.5" Exhaust with Headers and V-Force Mufflers, 3.73 gear, and shift kit for turbo350. Can't forget CRAGAR SS's
Some pics.
Buddies BUILT 468ci Nova TUBBED.

First ride: (need to find pics of it) '76 elky with a 396/th400 from a late sixty's chevelle. Black on black with vette ralleys....was a real fun car.
First ride I have pics of: '87 foxbody vert. Had a nice little heads/cam 306ci w/built T5/3.73's. Even though it's the only furd I ever had and it wasn't very fast, it was one of the most fun cars I've owned, would love to have it back. Pic:
