My first car was a 1973 Chevy Nova that I inherited from my Mom. Next was a 1976 Olds Cutlass 442 (not the real ones with the power, this was in the middle of the emissions learning curve, the 350 only made about 145 HP). Although this was my car I didn't buy it (Graduation gift for choosing a state school (Rutgers) rather than Princeton or Wake Forest, saved Dad a ton of $$$$ so the least he could do was buy me a car
)
The first car I actually bought and paid for myself was a 1979 VW Scirocco. After the lowering, Koni's, Widened rims, Goodyear Wingfoots, "secret" sway bars and body stiffening, "enhanced" fuel injection, headers, Ansa exhaust, shaved heads and degreed cams it was a terror at the local autocross. I was beating "prepared" 911's brought in on trailers
Hard to believe that was over 25 years ago......
