2005 Scion tC. All it has for now is an engine front strut tie.
Once I have payed off insurance and other things coming to almost a total of $1000, I will hopefully be able to put some engine mods under the hood from working a lot. I'm ready to bank some serious money and just save up though.

First car i owned.
1988 Dodge Shadow ES Turbo. (had it from 1998-2000) Had the 2.2L 4cyl turbocharged engine. I had the wast gate locked off and mad up an intake for it with a K&N filter. It also had a cat back Flowmaster exhaust. That little ugly car could really move but i put way more money into than i should have. Still it was fun seeing my buddys face when it left his 1985 Camaro sitting (305ci V8).

A lot of you seem to have some reasonably nice first cars. That seems odd to me. I thought most first cars were junkers, until they could afford, and obtained the sense to take care of, something nicer.
My first car was practically given to me by my grandfather. It was a 1987 Ford Tempo. It was BROWN. Not just brown, but the ugliest shade of brown that a car company had ever applied to a motor vehicle, then that particular color aged for 12 years in the sun before I had acquired it.
It had power windows, but the passenger window wouldn't go down. If you put the driver's window the whole way down, it wouldn't go up, and you had to remove the door pad to gain access to the door's internals and manually push the window up.
If you would put more than a half-tank of gas into the car, it would leak. So, I would have to stop on my way to work almost daily, to pump 2-3 gallons of fuel, so it was never full enough to leak out. Parking with the back of the car slightly uphill would also ensure that gas would not leak out of it whilst parked.
I drove the car during the summer after my high school graduation, before having a minor fender bender, which broke a piece of the suspension, and we decided that it wasn't worth repairing. Not long after that, I bought my first car, a '97 Cavalier, which seemed like a Rolls Royce after the Tempo.

Have to remember, lots of kids are spoiled. 
The only reason I even have a vehicle is because my bro moved to Florida and didn't want to take the truck with him.

I have been a good child to my mom and she decided that me having good grades and not getting in trouble, I deserved more than a junker. So we decided on the scion tc and I have never been happier with the choice. My mom also likes it compared to her weak jeep liberty when she gets to drive it whenever I need her car for some reason.

2007 Nissan SE-R. 180HP with CVT. Fun car, but very problematic. Sold after 6 weeks and 800 miles. Already went through and entire power steering unit, 2 sets of fog lights, and had several problems with the engine. It also needed to be repaited due to a massive dealer error.

Thankfully replaced with this.
2005 Toyota Tacoma V6 PreRunner TRD Off Road' Bought with 28K miles in mint condition. Now has 30K miles and runs like brand new.
Gonna get it dyno'd within the next few weeks to determine the gains from the planed performance mods.

In Go-Kart form. You did say "With a motor"
1984 Buick Mt. Dew Darrell Waltrip car for the body over a tube frame with a gasoline-powered carburetor engine over the rear axle running a direct chain drive. Top speed of 75mph. Still have it in the parents' garage.
Cue DeTrevni's lust of my "buick"
As for my first real car.
The first one I owned was a 1990 Toyota Camry 4cl 16valve ECT 4-Door. Not a bad little car for college.
First one I bought:
With a rear spoiler (not pictured)
I still miss the Subie.
Current ride:
In volcanic red with a 3.0L V6 that will do 75mph at the top end in 2nd gear.

My first car was a 1983 BMW 320i that broke every few hundred miles. Luckily we had five parts cars to keep it functioning (for a little while) with replacement 20+ year old parts. I was constantly accused of breaking it from beating on it, but except for the two times I crashed it (finally killed it this January) it was just age killing it. Back when i was 16 and stupid I used to get it off the ground frequently and that never broke it. When I was 18 (and still stupid) I got talked into removing my studded snow tires and wiped out on a bad corner where snow had drifted across the road when I was doing the speed limit for once. The Ralph-Nader 25mph bumpers worked well so I kicked the fender out of the tire and went to my pool function. I did the same thing this January(21, still stupid and legally intoxicated) and since I no longer had 25mph bumpers the car was killed. Despite the low speed, the car was seriously jacked up, it had been crashed many times before and crumpled everywhere it was weakened with rust and stitched together with bondo. On the plus side, I killed it before it killed me(I'd been planning on intentionally beating it to death this summer and getting a new car anyways) and I got a nice ride in the back of a state police cruiser.

It was a challenge. Because the starter engine didn't work, I had to rabbit-start the car every time. That meant parking on the flat, or preferably downhill.
But without reverse, I had to look for "drive-through" parking, so I wouldn't have to back out. We still ended up pushing the car a lot, though.
Since the parking brake didn't work, I kept some bricks in the car to put behind the wheels.
Driving that car was always an adventure.

Everyone has trucks, I had no idea there was this many farmers on the forum. Anyways, I love my 95' Mazda 626. 237,577 miles (just checked). 5-speed manual, with factory clutch, because I actually know how to drive. Lightweight, so great gas mileage and acceleration for a 4-banger. Fun on snow and ice, which is great because they don't really plow our roads. 6x9 Infinities in all the doors and in the rear (Custom fitting). A pair of powerhorns under the hood lets me blare classic rock as I cruise. A GPS because I'm horrible at directions. A pistol-grip 12 ga riotgun is legally cased on the back of the drop-down rear seats. It's like the friggin' Batmobile. It's a great car, treats me better than I deserve, refuses to break-down or die, not matter how many times I hit the ditch, and I haven't put more than 150 bucks into upgrades (only repairs in two+ years has been cheap tires and free oil changes). It may not be the flashiest car, but it's perfect for me.

I got arrested last time I had my pole out in the grocery store.
When I see someone driving a truck with an empty/unused bed (I totally understand construction use, landscaping, ect) I assume that person is a fossil-fuel wasting tool. I'm probably wrong, but I can live with that.

Ive got 45s. My tow hitch was in the way of rear tips. I like the 45s better anyways.

So then the exhaust isn't straight. And if you want them out the back you could run them down the outside of the hitch, thats what i did on my brother in laws truck.

Its mostly straight. But with how it would have to be bent, i would be getting more restriction putting it straight out the back than at those 45s. It sounds louder to nearby cars that way too.

LOL, I am not a city boy and I think your logic is flawed. Most of the time it is cocky guys like you that end up in the ditches because you think your precious 4wd will keep you from sliding on ice. Also, I can very easily fit a dear in the back of my little mazda truck, as well as a 4 wheeler. My truck is also 2wd and I get around just fine int he snow, and if it wasn't going to be lowered I could raise it and probably run with you off road.

Nah. I love the smell. And Kickin, I know several people who have 2wd that are lifted, have lockers, modded engines, and big mud tires. My truck has next to nothing like that on it, and I end up pulling them out of the mud. 4wd is great for going forward, but it doesnt help you stop on ice at all.

You just gotta know what your doing when you get in the mud, if you have a locker in your 2wd pickup you can go a lot of the same places that a truck with 4wd can. But like I said you have to know what your doing other wise nothing can help you once your in to deep.

To my house-closest town-Long Prairie, Minnesota...largest in the county...3,040 people....and it's still a fifteen minute drive from my house to town. And 4-wheelers are for hunters who are too lazy to walk. Nuggent would be ashamed. I don't know about you city slickers, but if we have to move a 4-wheeler...we drive it...thats what those 4 wheels are for. And I just drive out of the ditch, most of the time.

I didn't direct the farmer comment at you, I'm sorry if you took it that way. And if we're gonna be talking with testosterone, then I should let you know I doubt your truck could stand up to the pair of 12's sitting in that little Mazda. But really, lets not reduce ourselves to idle threats.

I would suggest putting the subs at the very front of the box/bed, in a waterproof setup. Either that or something low-profile under the seats. I've seen people do just one between the seats (cut away).

Well, problem with under the seats is I can't build the right sized box, I am thinking about putting in buckets and then I would be able to have some room between the seats.

I would go bigger, or even just increase how many 12's I would have. But I am already having trouble fitting 2 12's as is so I think 18's would be impossible. These little truck don't have much interior room, if I wanted to go all out, I could put subs in the bed under a water proof tonno(SP) cover, but then what would be the point in have a truck at that point.
