Now you are showing your age. I too remember those days as I grew up in Moraga and that was the thing to do on Friday and Saturday nites! It was huge! My Dodge is what I cruised the main in. You have opened up a part of my memory! That was so much fun.

The c36 is my first car, bought it myself. Love the car, I always loved AMG since being a kid. Going to drive this car until I can afford c55 I think, the car I really want is the c63, but it's to powerfull and expensive

My first car was a piece of crap mustang .I beat the living crap out of it. I hit things and things hit me. I't was great. Back to your question......I only paid $300.00 for it.I brought it from my brother in law.Try to find something you can afford from someone you can trust. Knowing a cars history is a definite plus.

I wish I never sold my first car, it brings back so many good memories when I see pictures of it. How many of you still have your first car or would like to get your first car back?

Due to intense mental trauma inflicted on me during college for driving what I drove, I have forgotten what my first car was. And do not care to remember
