wow, what a bunch of nice cars. i know wht u should do. save up a lot of money,
build a sick turbo setup like HlH to where you can smoke all those cars.

 

if i could ever afford that i will....at least i get to drive some of these wen they get drunk

 

same max i have now... got it junior year and graduated last year. meanwhile, i now see that some kids are getting s500's and cayennes, though i'm not really jealous, since i had the fastest car in the lot for a while (haha, until some kid showed up with a wrx during the middle of my senior year)

 

i got my max in SOPHMORE year baby o yea, and still pimpin

 

oooo my dream car. 2005 wrx sti in either blue or silver. uhghuhhhh.
i rode in one, a 2000 i believe, w/ turboxs charged, bunch over mods, should be running over 20psi now but yeh, i was hangin on to my @ss when i was in that car.

don't wanna mess w/ awd, no offense to maxies

 

i drove a 1989 s10 chevy blazer and i loved it.... i used to pile soo many people in there and go thru so many mud holes that i shouldnt of tried

we actually had a dirt lot my senior year and when it rained or snowed lets just say i had a lot of fun in there... i miss that truck

 

started off in a 1990 Nissan Pathfinder, loved that thing. i believe 5% all around, and a few stereo mods.



then got a 85 cressida, that thing used to haul ***.



then an 89 240sx, 20% all around, sony 8805 headunit, 10" Kicker L7.



and january of this year i bought my 02' max.

 

My car in high school was my 98 maxima. I remember when I was 13 and my mom first got the maxima, I said I got dibs on it once you get a new car. She said yes and I never forgot about it. When she got her 2k3 maxima I reminded her and she let me drive it everyday to high school. I graduated 2002. She finally gave it to me my freshman year of college. I started modding it in High school though before I even owned it. My parents are the sh*t.

 

didnt have my own car in high school...occasionally drove my moms 89 volvo station wagon....ya it was a wagon and it was old, but it had a turbo and i had the comfort of knowing that i was driving a tank and that if i got in an accident all i would suffer from was a dented bumper...and who knows what the hell would happen to the other guy.

 

Not too long ago for me I got my first car 10th grade summer. I was 1 of 3 of my friends that had cars. Sadly mine was the best. 1993 Buick Skylark GS 3.3 V6 4dr Auto 4-spd, cd player, infinity speakers, neons, custom clear corners, alarm/remotestart/keylessentry, fog lights, custom intake, cut-off clogged cat, + you know that baby had the hyperwhite headlight and corners when they came out.

 

class of 2000. had a beautiful 91 maxima will all brand new leather,wheels, system, drop, etc etc that i got when i was a sophmore back in 97 and then got stolen in March of my senior year (bastards). then unfortunatly i got a 92 accord that i recently got out of and is sittin in my driveway waitin to get sold for parts to go on my recently aquired 99SE that my bro gave me dead stock (minus the drop in K&N air filter) for X-Mas. Best bro ever.

 

class of 01-- had an 92 RED subaru legacy station wagon w/ a slipping auto trans, no heat (bad in chicago winters) and an C-clamp holding the thermostat together. after that broke down i got an '89 oldsmobile 88. damn thing never started in the cold, and the whole car rattled like hell w/ the subs in the trunk. living the ghetto fabulous lyfe!

 

Fun thread...

Took a relatively unknown car and gave it a bit of personality - 1971 Dodge Demon



In college, the real need for speed hit - 1977 Datsun 280Z

 

WOW Dodge Demon, thats sick!

 

i got a brand 1986 maxima se 5 speed, that my father brought me for a pre- graduation gift. may he rest in peace.

 

i had a 95 celica w/ custom black paint job(after a wreck), 17" rims, leather interior, sunroof, dropped, 15" sub, and all the other young ricer mods

I still miss that car because as light as it was it could have been a bada$$ car.

 

I got my first car my soph year..it was a 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass..haha...that thing drove smoooooooooth, but it was a granny car. Worst of all it was white with maroon interior... I got rid of it after 3 months and got a 1992 stanza. I had that through highschool and up until last summer. Graduated in 2001. i loved that stanza...its all good, i stayed within the family...

 

96 240sx SE was my baby in highschool.. i got hit by a stolen car, nearly died, and lost my baby for EVA !!!!

 

Sophmore year??? WTF lol.. a 18yr old sophmore.. lol.. Just kidding.. I wish i had a car, i had to take the train my sophmore year.. lol

 

still driving it, i got the max in '03 after i graduated high school. But it has changed alot since then.

 

im graduating this year. i just started drivin to school this month actually. my car is pretty nice. we got 2 srt-4s, camaros, mustangs and alot of trucks. so i guess my car ranks in the top 10% of cars in my school, and i will soon have a car with the loudest exhaust in my school.....heheh

what i really want now is a 2005 altima SE-R in smoke....ooooooooooooo

 

If you go to Chicago, you will see kids in EVO's, G35's, TL's, BMW's etc, etc. Here kids drive cars with hoods and fenders falling off their cars.

 

uh oh i see the Guyana flag, representin

 

actually...it was the summer after sophomore year...I never took a picture of that olds...and by the way i turned sixteen the july after soph year...so i wasnt 18 my soph year...haha...

 

i graduated in 04 and in my school we had about 20 lexuses, some landrovers a sh*tload of mazda 6's and the rest were beaters. i fit in the last category, but i think mine was the best of the beaters
we called it "GhetTopaz"- a 92 mercury topaz with some nice tint and the best system in the parking lot. i had a custom cai and some free exhaust work done in auto. so this thing used all of its 90 horses. then i found a maxima and sold it. here's a pic

 

Hmmm...guess I may not have been blessed with parents who had the money to push my way in HS. I was lucky to have any car. My car was a cherry '72 Pinto Wagon, $sh_t brown. What a beauty! I guess I could have afforded something more respectable had I not been an athlete in HS. Playing ball wouldn't enable me to work and save for a car, so my aunt was nice enough to give me this when she got her new car. Of course, I'm talking 1982 when I was a senior, so times have certainly changed. Props to the young guys here with nice cars who have worked for them. I only get concerned with the Silver Spooners whose Mommy and Daddy buy whatever Junior wants.

 

i have a 98 blk max gle and i'm a soph

 

Great topic. I was driving my mom's 1991 Plymouth Acclaim V-6!!! That thing had pick-up for what it was. I even manually shifted the auto to 3rd to get better pickup to 100...yeah eventually it got to the trans! But for 77,000 miles, that was the only thing that went wrong! I got my first car a year into college, a 1993 SHO auto and loved it, but replaced it with my 99 5-speed Max and that is the best car I have owned so far.

 

1985 Dodge lancer ES
2.2 ltr turbo
5 speed
Paid $1850 for it. Drove it for 7 years. Sold it for $1500 with 216k.
Best car I've ever owned but my Maxima is holding its own.

 

94 thunderbird LX V8 (every option)...
combination of slick tires, a sharp turn, rain, and a ditch = that picture....

paid 3300 for it with 82000 miles on it back in 2002, crashed it january 2003.. then drove a junky saturn (which I still use as my daily driver for work) until purchasing my maxima in April 2003

 

Graduated in 02 with an 89 Prelude. Fun car but it was too small and was an auto.



Then I got a 95 Jetta. Biggest POS I have ever owned.



Then I got a 99 Altima. Good reliable car.



I always wanted a Maxima even before the Prelude and got sick of auto real quick, so I got this:

 

I graduated in '96. The car I drove around most of my senior year was a '73 Chevy nova 2dr. Originally had a straight six but took that out and put in a built 327. The car was a bucket and for the last part of my senior year I had got a '69 Nova SS. Green with a black top. Originally a 396 car but bought with no motor/tranny. Took the 327/350 and put it in that car. Nastiest car in the parking lot, easily. It had a 12 bolt with 4:56 gears.
Ahh memories .

 

Big pimpin 1997 Acura 1.6el (Canadian model)





used to think it was fast...

 

I'm graduating this year aswell, I've had this car for a little over a year now, never plan on selling it. Paying it off on my own, didnt need any help on the down payment either.

I've had a lot of fun with this car, a lot of money too.

EDIT: Ooooh my 2000th post.

 

Belarus is not Russia or Russian. It's been over 13 years since the USSR dissolved, and yet we still know little about any part of the world but our own. It's no wonder China is on track to be the #1 super power and our SS system will be losing money in 2017 and bankrupt in 2041. Sheesh!!!

 

My car in high school was a '87 Olds Toronado in Midnight Blue. PITA & expensive to fix, considering the whole car was computerized, esp. the dash

Graduated in 1997

 

HAHA lucky you

 

i built my own car in high school. i had a 1994 Ford Ranger pick-up for everyday use, but i built this 1979 Olds Cutlass. i did all the custom body work, engine work, interior, and air ride in my garage when i was 16-17. fun car, just outgrew the style. it was fun to take it from mega junker to a pretty nice car. man that was a long time ago! i still have it though!

 

I have no idea where any pictures would be, I know I have them somewhere. I bought a 80 RX-7 with a 82 rotary in it, from my boss's son. He got it stolen, sold it to me for $500, was missing a rim, and the rear axle housing was bent.
However, it was an awesome car in 89 for a 16-year old. Put a header on it, aftermarket cherry bomb muffler (made it sound like a lawn mower), and would run the tires down to where you could see sparks when I burnt rubber. The a/c was broken and in florida that sucked, plus those rotary's run hot, your right leg was in a constant oven. I replaced the rims with 84 Rx rims, and replaced the rear end myself. I learned how to work on cars with that thing.
I crashed it in 92, my brother wrecked it in 94, I put the motor in another RX with no engine, drove that until I was 25. Started to want a max in 93, sick of having no back seat and no trunk. Decided to get my 97se 5spd in 99, unless the racing I do kills it, I will keep it quite a while. Honestly for some auto-x runs, I like the fwd max better, it won't unexpectedly spin you out. The RX would be more fun for the more curvy tracks, because then I could pass all the Miata's on the straights and leave them in the dust further in the infield turns, unlike now where I murder all the Miata's in the straights and they catch up in the middle of the infield. But I haven't run Watkins yet, I'll see how the max does there this year.

 

I had a 18 speed Mountain Bike, and drove my parent's slammin Jeep Cherokee w/4 cylinder...woohoo
