Re: First car?
Adding to the list of previous Probe owners...
1995 Ford Probe GT in Sliver-Blue Mist... Bought it in 1998 with 23,911 miles on it. It was advertised as having 23,908 miles... I will never forget that car... I modded it nicely, and enjoyed every second of it. Well, I basically spent every dollar on that car, and she was very good to me.

Re: First car?
1987 Jeep Cherokee 4x4, Automatic, 4.0L I6 engine. Only mod I ever did to it was put some sort of deck in it after my dad fried the OEM one trying to fix it. I beat the living piss out of the thing for over a year. It had almost 260,000 miles on it when I sold it, still ran good, had a freshly rebuilt transmission and transfer case. I sold it for $700.
 I still regret selling that thing to this day. If I move back up in the mountains again I'm absolutely going to go buy another one in a heartbeat.It looked just like this one except mine had the "steelie" wheels.  After that I had... 1986 Honda Accord LX-i hatchback - Its on Cardomain if you want to see how much of a ricer I used to be, I'm not going to link it. Consider it like a "treasure hunt". HINT: The username should make it obvious. 1999 Cougar V6 ATX w/ Sport package 1989 Mustang LX "project" 1989 Nissan 240SX hatchback "POS" And now my current 1999 Cougar V6 MTX Last winter I had a 1977 Toyota Corolla 4 door as a beater while my Cougar was getting a new transmission and other work. Fun little beater, would be rediculously fun to do something crazy like a 2JZ swap or something just for the "OMGWTF" factor.

Re: First car?
1989 Ford Probe.
Loved that car, still do. The only option was cruise control. I had it painted Dodge Viper Red back in the mid 90's. I put two 6" black racing stripes ala Probe GTS on her. I spent $997 on a CD Deck install back when they were quite rare in cars. I bought some sweet 15" 9 spoke ASA rims for it and yokahama A520 tires. That car kicked ass. I wish I had digital pics of it.
