Here is my first car, got it when I was 17. Saved up some cheese working at a fast food joint and bought it. Mine was light brown though. Had a *****in' Aerosmith sticker on it.
Had it for about a year when it caught on fire in the drive thru of a McDonalds.
Then I went out and got a '92 Toyota Celica, it was red though. Loved that car. Went to Vegas, Havasu, all over in it.
Had that up until four years ago when I got a new car, totally sweet.
Celicas are my favorite cars, but I never got one... I just didn't want the new ones, prefer probably a '98, and for the money, I knew I could get something nice that was reliable (being the Pulsar)
Pop up lights! Totally futuristic man, I love it.
It should be noted, yours wouldn't be the only Horizon that has caught on fire in a McDonalds drive through. I believe that's how most of them have been destroyed.

The flip up lights were cool. Except when you have to change one of the lights. That sucked.
Talk about embarassing though when that car lit up. I laughed about it later but still, what a kick to the nads. I had to start a new job that day too. Had just gotten out of class, dropped a friend off and decided to get some grub. Luckily a fire engine had been driving by, stopped and doused it. Then left me there with a burned up car and a cheeseburger.
except it was black. It was a couch on wheels. I loved it.
2nd car: 1996 Saturn SC1
except it was blue
my mom gave it to me when she got a new car cuz she felt sorry for me.
a few months later my brother totalled it.
i don't like Saturns
1998 Chevy Blazer
I liked this one
I killed it
Current car:
I don't like saturns... but i hope this one lasts.
first stick-shift I owned, I do like stick-shifts. I felt very immasculated not knowing how to drive stick.
Oh man, let me try to go through a list of my cars for the past 20 years.
1984 Nissan Sentra (got in a really bad accident)
1988 Nissan Hardbody 4x4 (gave it to my brother)
1990 Volkswagon Rabbit (it had a cracked head, that was greased up when we bought it, so we didn't know. The entire block blew. I dumped the POS)
1970 Chevy Chevelle (traded it in for the next one)
1986 Honda Prelude (sold it because I moved to Florida)
199? Toyota Celica (traded it for the next car)

HECK! said this in post #12 : That Chevy you have now is dope dude. Is that an acutal pic of it?
-HECK!
No, my paint job is much more sucky. Same bodystyle. I gots me a real pic somewhere, it's a ugly purple color, I always meant to repaint it, but never got time.
HECK! said this in post #14 : Still tight looking. Old Chevy's like that rule.
-HECK!
I love those old body styles. I should have got me a new truck years ago, but I enjoy driving with that huge steering wheel, and all that American Steel at my control...
Aight, here is the present, what I got, the old Suburban aint got an engine in it. A solid reminder of my White Trash status. And proudly so.
The pickup has some bird droppings on it, and the paint is faded, shoot, it's half rusted away, but I still can rip a respectable burn in it.
