Tell us about your first/favorite car!

It's a lovely spring afternoon here - nice driving weather! - and in the spirit of a "getting to know you" thread, would love to hear about everyone's first or favorite car!

Did you save up and pay for it yourself, or was it a gift/present (or a hand-me-down)? Any special reason why you got the car you did? Any special memories that come to mind?

When I was younger, I drove a bit of an old lady car - no offense intended to any old ladies! It was, in fact, an old lady's car before it was mine. She had recently passed away (when we heard about it, I thought she had died IN the car, but thankfully I had misheard), and I think the family just wanted to get rid of it, so they sold it at a very cheap price, considering the good condition it was in. And a new set of tires included, too!

In the end, it was a great car. Was it flashy or cool? Not at all, but the gas mileage was quite nice for the time.

How about you? Any cars in your life that you hold special in your memory?

Edit: Thank you to Kimi for pointing out that it may be unwise for some folks to divulge specifics about the make/model of their first car, so I've revised this post to be more welcoming.

Join us every weekend in the Hobbit movie forum for this week's CHOW (Chapter of the Week) discussion!
