    • I don't know if the internetz is ready for a pic of my first car. It was a 1988 Chevy Beretta GT that I bought for $100 and fixed up myself (it had been t-boned by a truck). It was lowered, with rimz from Les Schwab and was painted silver with some sweet read accents. It was fast and furious before Fast and the Furious.

      Oh yeah, and it had a partially shaved bay. LOL

          • My first car, BMW e30 1988 320i, this was 1998-2000. Shit that was long ago, feels like yesterday! When 16" wheels were the shit, 130hp was plenty and I was the lowest car in town

            Sorry for the poor quality of pics, just took pics with iPhone of some old photos (you know the kind that were printed on paper...)

            • I modified almost every car I've owned in some way, mainly minor stuff, but this one was my first that I did more than just a stereo and wheels on.

              Started as the first car I ever financed, bone stock, somewhere about 1999-ish. I think this was the first car I lowered, did a full custom one-off stereo system, new headlamps and corners, turned the fender badges into side markers, custom exhaust, roll bar, painted interior bits, billet interior knobs, first carpet kit I ever installed, billet grill, vinyl stripes, OEM cobra wheels, CAI, first time with stretched tires (huge fender gaps but I still bottomed out a lot so I didnt go any lower). Man, I was so proud of this car, ha.

                      • My GTI was my first car that I really modified... Threw some sick rimzzz with no suspension modifications on my first Jetta back in high school, but I've tried my best to forget about those days.
