1976 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme stationwagon. The damned thing was HUUUGE!! If I were to ram a modern compact car with it, I'm not sure I'd even notice the jolt.

My husband had a '73 Chevy Nova. Damn thing knew when ugly girls where in the car next to them when they were cruising and could kill cars fast off the line if you were going two light poles. Slow start, but quick to accellerate.

My family had a 1976 Cutlass Supreme coupe when I was a kid. Damn were those freakin' doors heavy! I remember pushing on those doors as hard as I could and could never get the damn things to latch shut, and if my dad parked so that the car was tilted to one side, then things got real fun. The doors would then be either impossible (for me, a little kid at the time) to open or shut depending on which way the car was tilted. If we still had that car now we'd be caving in the sides of other cars whenever we opened the doors in a parking lot. That coupe was bigger than the '97 Buick LeSabre we now have, and it was considered to be a "mid size" car back then. A family friend had a '77 Olds 88, that thing was beyond huge, and probably weighed more than those huge SUVs we have now.

My first car was a 66' Mustang Coupe. It was sky blue.

Man, it was such a hunk of crap though. But I just had to have a Mustang.
That was in 1988. I had the car till 1990 when it finally died.

A few weeks after I bought it, actually my dad bought it, I was vaccuming the front and lifted up the floor mat. I could see the pavement through several holes.

When it rained and I made left turns, the car tended to fishtail.

Finally, when we were about to ditch the car, we found out the motor from a Ford Econoline Van.

Those were the days.

EDIT: This picture is actually pretty flattering. For those of you who've never seen one, this truck is very small.

Not sure about the stats, but I love this car.

88 Isuzu Trooper, 4cyl 2.8 litre, 4wheel drive, That was an ugly rig, but if you told it to climb a tree and pointed it at it, well, you better buckle up and get ready for a 90 degree climb. That SOB would go anywhere, even though it weighed, well, alot, cause it didnt have a bit of plastic on it, just solid metal, with body panels almost a quarter inch thick.

heres a pic of an ugly thing like it, except mine didnt have the lift kit and big tires or a roof rack like that one and mine was two tone tan/maroon:

My second was a '97 jeep wrangler, hehe, i like my four wheel drives!

BTW can anyone confirm or deny that my Datsun Stanza picture from photos.yahoo.com is showing in your browser? It shows it mine, but it could just be because some cookie in my PC.
