My first car was an 83 Olds Cutlass.. not the one with the 442 or anything cool like that.. it was a POS 6 cyl that had like 8 hp. seriously it was like 30 seconds 0-60 time. The engine started rod knocking like 2 weeks after buying it so i had it rebuilt.. the night i picked it up from being rebuilt i crashed it into a parked car.. 16yr old = dumbass. Drove the crap out of it with half a bumper and a junkyard hood.
My first car that I really ever started Modding was my 07 Maxima..
Had intake/spacers/Nismo exhaust from the 3.5 altima, audio, hid's, lots of other stuff.. Went to several local Nissan/Infiniti meets and started to really want a 350z.. Then the 370's came out and I was hooked.. Traded in the Max for my Z in August.
