What was the price of your 1st car

The first car I actually bought myself? 1994 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi, $2000 (six months ago)

Before that, I had a 1990 Ford Tempo (it died on me and I was glad to be rid of it) - not sure how much it cost. Second car was a '92 Bonneville SE and I think my dad paid $2800 for it.
 
300 bucks for a 1986 Corolla Hatchback - parents let me drive it, sold it for 400 bucks, paid them back the 300.

The first car I actually bought by myself without assistance - my Scion xB: $16,666 🙂
 
$50 for a 1986 Cutlass Supreme 😀 Perfect Condition from my dad's friend who didn't want it anymore 😛
 
Dad gave me his (dunno year, late 90s ish) Accord. My friend got an old diesel stickshift Rabbit for like 1000 bucks.

Hatchback Corolla? You don't mean the Trueno do you?

Mine was a 5-door Delux Liftback - not the RWD 2-door hatch.
 
84 cutlass sierra. 2.5L I4. Got it free from parents w/ 173k miles. Sold for $1100. I still see it driving around on occasion.

First one I bought... 96 Grand Marquis LS. 90k miles. $5400.

dsafafdaf wtf! everyone love thoses cars (teens) 😉 great price.

I shall update mine with my car in like 1 month though 😉
 
$15k for a 2001 Dodge Durango. I don't count the others because they cost next to nothing, but if you really want to know the first was $100 for a 1960 Triumph TR-3.
 
$1,000 for a 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300SD (turbo diesel) back in 1999. Sold it two years after that for $4,500 but probably spent that much in repairs.
 
1976 Dodge dart 4 dr 3 on the tree bought off the tow truck driver for $35 at the age of 15. Needed a rear end my father and installed and didnt get a chance to drive it because our neighbor on the other side of the street decided to get drunk and total it. Sold it for $100 and got my money back.
 
mmmm...first car I paid for myself would be the current car, '04 GTO. Yeah, I'm one of those guys you all complain about, heh...and it's a lease, that should make it even better.

A brand new 1974 Ford Pinto SW for $3,700

A brand new 1976 Porsche 914 2.0 for $9,800

A brand new 1978 Fiat X1/9 for $6,500
(i made money selling that car 2 years later)

A brand new 2002 Kia Rio for $5988.
(current - 63K miles and going strong . . . still 37K miles left on the warranty)

There are the new cars that i have bought in my life . . . . lots and lots of nice used cars and even a couple of classics (Mazda RX5/Triumph TR4a-irs/1968 RoadRunner w/383)
