I'm probably in the running for shittiest first car ever. 1989 baby poo poo tan Ford Escort 2 door. 4sp stick. Paid 500 cash in 1996 for it and had to have a guy rebuild the head and replace the headgasket for 300 bucks. Parents never helped with anything and I had to pay my own insurance which back then was 130 bucks a month or so. It was freedom though. It never needed much, was cheap to run and maintain. Replaced the clutch and front brakes on it. I only owned it about 2 years but it got passed around family and friends for at least 8 years after I owned it. It was poo poo, but it got you around. I upgraded to a 1992 Ford Escort for 2200 bucks around 1999. The drat thing was scary at anything over 65 miles an hour, I remember getting it up to about 75 once and it felt like the car was going to fall apart.

CannonFodder posted:1986 Pontiac Sunbird, black on the sides and primer down the middle. It was named Buttmuffin II because Buttmuffin I was totalled in a rear ender. You and Saga with his Chevy Celebrity win. Buttmuffin is a great car name. The '89 Escort was named 'Otis' after the guy we think owned it before us. Found some paperwork in the car with the name Otis on there and it stuck. The only other car I ever named was my SRT-4, someone called it Sneezy after I put a BOV plate on it, and that stuck as well.
