Well I just turned 20 a couple of weeks ago and I believe I have a nice car. (Sorry no pics), but it's a 1990 Firebird Formula, black, and 17 inch rims. Have done nothing to the stock 305 engine. That's because I'm looking for an Lt1 to stick under the hood

If you want to see under 20 people go to the V-6 board there is a large group there. Insurance keeps them there.

Some of you youngin's make me sick. My first car as a teen was a 1984 Chevette. It was silver and charcoal. I called it the Silver bullet and oh boy was it a chick magnet. HA HA!
Im not bitter or anything. That car built me a lot of character.
And strong muscles. Had to get out and push a lot. HA!
Im 22 now and Ive owned 4 firebirds since 1998. Now Im down to two.

I hate people who are under 20! I <font color=red>HATE YOU!</font> you are the real haterz! I'm a 90 year old Bucktooth old man that can get more chickz in my ride then you can! They like my shribbled wooww dont go there. K I'm just 
ing. I bought my car when I was 18 if that makes a difference. I''m still driving it and am now 21. BTW dont ever get to my age. Cause when you do it just seems like everyone wants a part of your paycheck and that leaves close to nothing for my car. The best plan for the age under 20 is to get a Job and dont tell your parents. Dont tell them because they will think its about time that little **** starts giving us some money. Take all the money and buy what you can <h2><font color=red>BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!!

Nice ride. I just have one question did you pay for it, or was it given to you, or did you parents buy it for you? Not trying to be rude... pulling stupid rich kid line ... I was just wondering.
I said that I'm trying to make money because all the income I do have goes towards paying it off and gas
Need some extra so i can start fixing her up

Heh, the TA's my fourth car..... 1st was a Dodge Omni!!!! Was hit while parked and we cleaned up on insurance which led to an old Mercury Topaz LS, which I hated so I talked my parents into letting me sell it to by a '85 Camaro Sport Coupe. Wasn't to bad, but only had the 2.8L... so I managed to sell it and pick up the TA. Won't be the last car, but won't be selling her to get the next

Well, I'm 20... I think the 85 IROC I just bought is pretty damn nice
Its a theft recovery that was stripped when it was stolen. The previous owner completely restored it... so it looks damn near brand new. Because of the rebuilt title the car wasn't worth much... so I picked it up for $2500 on ebay :thumbup:
This is my second car. My first was bought by my parents, it was an 87 Z28 with an LG4 which also cost $2500. I offered to repay them the cost of the car countless times but they always refused to take it :shrug:

when is was 16 i bought my z28 for 500 bucks off of a kid who needed the money for rent. good thing is that its an original 82 z28 but the engine is slightly modded. 305 bored .030 over, different pistons, slightly better then stock cam, edelbrock performer intake and edelbrock 600cfm carb, all new ignition system and im still runnin stock manifolds and i have estimated about 200-215 hp. i also have a hooker headers catback exuast with catco hiflow cat, brand new paint job, swaped the old ugly gray interior for an all black interior out of an 86 sport coupe (parts car), it also has a th-350 tranny with shift kit and a B&M megastar shifter, thats all i can think of right now and also im 18 yrs old now. heres a few pics of the car

It must be great to have a nice car while still in High School or even just a fast car. Even though my Firebird Sport Coupe has faded paint, rust spots, and a weak engine, I still get compliments on it. I don't know why. I hope those of you with the nice cars don't crash them or something like that.

I finally got my dream car at the beginning of Summer.
My first car i got when i was in Senior year, 1985 Oldsmobile Eighty-eight, i was about 18, my Grandpa just gave me the car, which was cool, even though i was going to buy one on my own, but hey who refuses free stuff! Of course most of the time the car broke down, so driving time was minimal on that. Imagine driving down the freeway and your car just shut down, and u dont even know cause it does it so silently, then when a turns coming up, u realize u cant steer!!! POS car, almost lost my life a few times.
Then last Summer i got my 1993 Pontiac Grand Prix SE red off my cousin, paid about $3000 for that, and to this day i still own, i use it as my daily driven, winter car, because now i have this:
I got it for $8500 or so, the rest of my info is on the sig. I'm currently still paying for the car, as well as insurance on this car and my Grand Prix soon. Its a pain to keep up with payments, but hey its worth in the end. I just look at this way, as soon as i'm done payin for this car, then its just insurance, and the rest can go to MODS!!! Oh and i'll be 21 in November.

Car: too many ...
I turned 22 last month and I own all 4 rides outright (no help from parents). When I was 20 I only had the 90 RS and the 97 S10. Soon I hope to sell the 97 S10 and the 90 RS, so I'll be back to 2 rides (insurance is killing me!). I'll use the 92 B4C as my daily driver till I'm done modding the Stang (track only) ... then when the Stang is done I plan to buy a newer car to use as a daily driver while I mod the 92 B4C for shows.

Hey guys, i bought my car with my own hard earned money when i was 15 for 3K, now i'm 18 and have another 4K or more into it.
I had the fastest car in school for a good year, untill my friend's parents started buying them new cars (mustangs and camaros)

i just turned 20 in August, and i have had three thirdgen's in total.
my first car 1988 iroc-z 5.7, i wrecked that
then i got my 1988 formula 350, and some one hit me and wrecked that.
now i have my new car, pics and info in my sig..
i owe no loans and i have no debt at all, i paided off every car i owned, straight up cash; i work hard to pay my bills.
every since i started driving i had to have my own insurance policy and its about 110 dollars a month and has been going down slowly every since my first accident was cleared up.

If you want to see under 20 people go to the V-6 board there is a large group there. Insurance keeps them there.
meh, my car may not be very fast, but I think its would be in the Top 25 nicest looking cars on this board if I could just get some decent pics of it that are somewhat recent...
it's a 1992 metallic blue Camaro RS w/T-Tops......V6/A4
but hey, I get tons of compliments on it (and people trying to buy it from me) wherever I go....and only I know that it's a V6.

I'm 19, my Camaro is the second vehicle I've owned. First was an '87 S-10 Blazer which I loved but it broke too often so I dumped it in favor of my current Camaro. I bought it seven months ago and it's come a LONG way (check my website).
