Y'all make me feel young, heh. 1st car was a 1986 Chevy Chevette I had as an undergraduate in 1994 and 1995. Parents sold it (with my permission) after I joined the Army in 1996. Great little car, 4sp manual, rack and pinion steering, cloth seats. Baby blue, as I recall. First car I bought was a grey 1986 BMW 525e in 1998 when I first was assigned to Germany. Traded that for my baby, a 1983 BMW 525i, 5sp manual, sport seats, factory front air dam and trunk spoiler, Hamann alloys. Bahama Beige metallic paint with factory amber tinted windows. Damn, that car was fast, would do an honest and sustained 140mph+ on the autobahn. I almost re-enlisted just to keep that car... It wasn't eligible for import into the US back in 2000. I saw a lot of Europe out of the windows of that car. Some of my best memories!!
1st Luger came much later, in 2005 while I was living in Richmond. I found my c-block byf 42 at "Bob Moates' Sport Shop" there. I still have it, and will never sell.
