Toyota Rav4 1st Gen, yung 2-door version. My very first car waaaay back then. Huhuhu miss ko na yun. Her name was Bully. Pinalagyan kasi ng dad ko ng bullbar dahil alam niyang gagamitin ko. Kahit papalya-palya minahal ko pa rin ng lubusan.

1st car 1988 Hyundai Excel 2dr H/B 5spd. It was basic, no power anything and no air-con. My Lolo bought it new for my Tito, who neglected it and was handed to me. My Dad and I worked on it to get it on the road. I used it for school and work back then. My first car to have a slight interior fire in, my electric fan plugged into the cig lighter caught on fire. It would have mechanical failures, so had spare parts with me in case of emergency (avg. 1 break down a month). The engine finally let go while on the road leaving a trail of smoke, just like in F1.

Time has passed and have driven 4, 5 and 6spd cars. I've had: front engine/front wheel drive, front egnine/rear wheel drive, mid engine/rear wheel drive and hopefully rear engine/rear wheel drive (Porsche 911). <<< Someday with the right lotto ticket.

Pinakamaaga yata nagkakotse yung daughter kong 4 years old. Back in Feb 2009 my wife and I were looking at the then fairly new Grand Starex cause we needed a bigger car para kasya gamit ng baby pag out of town kami. After 2 weeks we drove the Starex home, tapos nakita ng mom ko yung van and she asked kung kanino yon, so sinabi namin ng wife ko na bumili kami ng van para sa apo nya. Then she asked kung magkano yon, the next day she gave us a check which amounted to the price of the van, tapos she told us not to argue with her dahil regalo daw ni Lola yung van para sa apo nya.

First car was a used but mint Toyota Corolla. It was given to me in high school and I learnt how to drive on it. I learned that a u-turn while driving at 40kph is a stupid thing to do.

Upon graduating, I received my first brand new car, a Mitsubishi Lancer. This was the car where I experienced a lot of stupid drunk accidents. I had a lot of fun in it.

First car I bought with my own money was a Toyota Altezza with the beams engine. I miss that car since it was really fun to drive. Oddly enough, I don't really miss the other two.

mine's a number of firsts:
first car i learned how to drive in was a mitsubishi mirage - plagued with engine problems; fortunately, naiuuwi ko pa rin pag nasisira.
first new car i drove was a bnew type Z city gl - company car assigned to me when i was a med rep.
first ride i bought on loan c/o my bro was a suzuki muticab dropside pickup - sold it recently and missing it everyday. never ashamed of bringing it on dates (naka aircon and mags naman) and to work; kumikita rin sya pag pina-aarkilahan ko for gas and booze.
first bnew ride that i now own - suzuki alto k10.

The family car was eventually handed down to me back then...a 1994 Toyota Corolla GLi. Drove it until I left the Philippines,
then got my own 'first' car..a brand new Toyota Corolla LE (AT) that I kept for about 3 years. I do miss driving my old Corolla, I hope she's okay. .

Kinagisnan kong service na 4 wheels, land cruiser 40 ni lolo. I still feel sorry na isip ko back then na pangit siya compared sa na usong shiny stainless jeeps noon, late ko na appreciate ganda niya.

My first car was a 2 door Ford Cortina which i bought second hand from a dealership in arnaiz ave. In q.c. used it during my 3rd and 4th yr in college back in 86' to 88'. Eventually sold it after. My first brand new car was a double cab nissan in 1990 and it was memorable to me as we used it to sleep at night during the baguio killer earthquake (as im from baguio).

I probably posted this years ago. But, my first car was a beat-up, poorly maintained 1976 Pontiac Firebird 6.6 which I bought in 1982. I got rid of it in 1986 because back then, I couldn't afford the parts and maintenance on it.

I'm kicking myself now after seeing all these reality shows about car restorers paying top dollar for classics that were in far worse shape.

My first car was a 1972 VW Beetle. I learned a lot about cars with it as my uncle was a mechanic and I was his alalay whenever something needed to be fixed with it. My most memorable moment with it was when the engine burst into flames (common fault with a Beetle) while I was out on a date with my GF. Everything turned out ok. She became my wife.
