1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Sierra back in 1996...real head turner, faded silver paint, shitty 80's purple tint that had bubbles in it, left drivers side window didn't roll up unless you held it while rolling it up, radio was shimmed in with some pieces of wood (cd player ) had an old car phone still mounted in it which made for a nice convo piece hmm what else, speedometer didn't work etc etc...Car was a pile but I earned it by working at a local pizza place and it got my friends and I to the beach countless times.

Renault Fuego me and my brother bought for 700 UK Pounds. We loved it despite spending a winter repeatedly changing out 're-conditioned' starter motors which would start the car one time before conking out.
Btw on this exotic half the engine had to be dismantled to change the starter... |

A Renault 5, that I got for free from my parent when I talked about buying myself a motorcycle. My mother got afraid and gave me the car the next day without me even asking (or wanting it, anyway)

1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT Sedan. Died at 107k miles. But I loved that car and it is what made me go for the sedan when I bought the F30.
Getting a BMW as a first car, new or old is cool, but I had friends that got ridiculous cars for their first rides. One kid had a 1996 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo with the targa top. Another kid down the street had a brand new e46 M3.

It's interesting from a European perspective how a lot of you got your first car from one of the Big three. I know this is an odd question but what if Detroit would built cars today with an equivalent driving pleasure, handling und quality like BMW?

1987 Volkswagen Polo Wagon (subcompact car below Golf/Rabbit), the low output version with 45hp. I have upgraded the Polo with nice BBS wheels, double chrome exhausts and sport suspension. The car has looked faster as it was.

1980 burnt orange Chevy Citation my parents bought off my Grandma. AM only radio. Passenger side door collected rain water and then would spontaneously slosh out all over my friend's feet.
