My first car that eventually lead me to the 370Z.... what was your first?

1976 Buick Regal, I bought for $75 while I was in highschool in 92'. Had four flat tires.

Around the same time my dad and I rebuilt a 1964 (I think) volkswagon bug. Fiberglass buggy body kit. Counter weighted the crank, racing cam with high duration/lift lobes, high compression valve springs, ported/polished heads, Italian made dual carburetor, lightened flywheel, no muffler just straight from the manifold to a single stinger exhaust (it was loud and didn't sound like an old Bug), and a few other things I'm probably forgetting

That thing hauled *** for a Bug, it was the most fun car I had to drive until I got the Z.
