1: Pontiac LeMans convertible, red/white, 1962 I think? I bought it for $50 in high school, but it needed loads of work and never ran.

6: 2006 BMW M5. Lucky me! I've had it 5 days and luuuuuuv it!

first car was a 62 chevy paid $350. But my first serious car was a 69 chevelle SS396 350HP. This one will have more HP and much more to the rear wheels. The chevelle would run 13.5 quarter miles. Can't wait to see what the 550 will do

My first car was a 60 Chevy, but I passed my test 6 years earlier--at 14 yrs. First "serious" fast car to drive regularly was a 1956 Buick Century--0 to 60 in 8.9 secs.
But at least they cannot call us ?Boomers with Bimmers?
