Your first car...............new and improved.

 I ran across this web site.  http://www.lov2xlr8.no/broch1.html  It's the most complete collection of US car brochures I've ran across.  So post a page from the brochure of your first car.

I'll start with mine.  

I had the 63 Belaire.

1992 Mitsubishi Galant GTI 2.0 DOHC 16V. Basically a non-turbo FWD VR4. Great car. I still miss it.

Looked exactly like this but it was silver.

[Onslaught]

I've never had an American car before so it can't help me. And I did a fast google search and didn't turn up a brochure for the 1987 Mazda B2000 pickup truck.


I really miss that truck. I'd love to have it back. I need something just that size for around the house and driving to work. I don't need these huge trucks made today.

Wow, great site!  Here's mine, a 1952 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe sedan, same green as in this illustration!

[Morris Minor]

This was mine, bought it new, same color & trim level, except I had the 1,100cc 55hp version. Car Magazine described it as a "bang-up-to-date supermini."



It took three years to fall apart & rust through.

No Hondas.

"It's the most complete collection of US car brochures I've ran across."  To clarify, U. S. Manufacturer car brochures.

I understand there is a sister site for european brands but I haven't found it.

Old Japanese car brocures are actually in really high demand. My Accord apparently had a navigation option in 1989 (!!!)

Couldn't find one.

Olds had Nav at that time too.

Ifcar, I thought your first car was a Kia Sedona?

By the metric of first car I drove a lot, yeah, it would be the Caravan that preceded the Sedona. But there wasn't a brochure for the Caravan on the site.

[Secret Chimp]

Different hubcaps and Ford Pea Green

[Speed_Racer]

Couldn't find one on your site, but I did find this old article online. Mine was exactly the same inside and out, except it was black.

Loved that car - peppy like a Civic Si, but people didn't want to steal it as much.

My earliest car that I could find on that site, except a '73.

[Vinsanity]

mine wasn't a turbo, but I remember this ad, and liking it

[ifcar]

I'm liking those seatbelts on the Grand Prix ad.

SEXY! 

[hotrodalex]

There isn't one for the El Camino, but here's one for the Chevelle.

Yeah, kind of weird/ugly.  They're showing off the "optional bucket seats"!

As a sidenote, my in-laws ran one into the ground. 300+ thousand miles and besides usual stuff only replaced the computer- my wife fell asleep with her foot holding the cigarette lighter in for a very long time. It fried the computer.

325- or 350-horsepower with craptacular suspension/braking !!!!?!?!?!!!  Must have been something.

[the Teuton]

Someone want to find an ad for a '93 Impreza that isn't in Japanese?

They only sold 25,000 Imprezas in America that year, so it might be kinda rare.

[FoMoJo]

I had a 1951 similar in colour to this one...



but it was a coupe like this...

[Submariner]

Olds had Nav at that time too.

Pictures?

Interesting.  Thanks.
