Kids These Days: Cars That Teens Want, According to Forbes

I dont believe this list..
But thats because I live in a hick town. But I love older cars/trucks. Im fifteen and i have an ’84 ford bronco that im fixing up before I drive. I was going to get a muscle car because I love them but that can still come later. Basically I wouldn’t even want a brand new vehicle. I have pride in paying for my own truck and older vehicles have more style anyway.

i want a 2005-08 ford GT mustang or an 2008 accord i would do anything for either one

i wud od anytihng for an evo

or just a wrangler

im not to picky ill settle for alot asl ong asd it looks good

my dream car is and always will be a 69 charger, my year of birth.
it could have a little to do with a particular 80′s tv show.

but talking affordable cars i always loved the 94-96 civic coupe in camilla red pearl since the day it came out, so that’s what i’ve been driving for ten years now and still loving it

Mustangs are so over done. They are cheap performance cars. But if you found a 1987 Corolla AE86 model in town that is sweet.

Even before I could drive let alone reach the pedals I always wanted a Dodge Viper. And still do!!!!!!

if you click on my profile you will see what my first car is, im now 19 and still own,love and respect my car, 99% of my firends didnt pay for their cars or even their insurance, i think becasue i bought all of my car along with EVERYTHING that is on/in it i have a better respect and dont abuse it like my friends do becasue they know if something heppens mommy and daddy will bail them out

which also makes me think that if you did another one of these with kids who have to buy their own things you;ll see the cars change along with the years they want lol

Uhh no buddy the Mustang takes first! A Honda? Haha. Get out of here. Mustang always will!!! That is all i will ever drive and there are more Mustangs in my school parking lot than anything else. That is one thing that will never change. Mustangs are and always will be the most popular sports car.

1.HONDA CIVIC SI
2.?
3.?
4.?

I wanted a ford focus after I saw the Rally team in Europe. I didn’t have one until my 2 1/2 year mark in the USMC. Now it’s been 7 years since I’ve had mine, and done plenty of mods. And continuing on, Im still working on it!

Wow, what is wrong with people anymore?
I’m personally a fan of old muscle.
Dream car list would be
1.) ’70 Dodge Challenger R/T
2.) Hemi Cuda
3.) ’67 Mustang
4.) ’66 Shelby Cobra
5.) ’67 Camaro
etc.

The car I drive now isn’t necessarily ‘american muscle’, as it is a Supercharged 3.8L (see my rides page), but it hangs with, if not destroys alot of the Mustangs and other cars that are now considered ‘american muscle’

I started out with a F150, worked my way to an F250, and bought myself a nice mustang GT convertible last year for myself for my 18th birthday. Honestly I feel everyone should have to work for what they get like I have, The thing that you have to know is to buy cash, that way you don’t owe anything. The next cars I’m working towards is…
2006 Ford GT,
1970 Mach 1 Mustang
2007 Koenigsegg CCX
And many more, but that is just for starters.

my favorite car of all time is the 1967 chevelle SS with the 396 big block. This was my dream ride when i was 16 and now 4 years later i finally have one :^)

I wanted a newer corvette when I first started driving. I never got one so I settled for a camaro.

I went to highschool in a large innercity district so the king of cars at my school was different than most you guys. I seen that when i bought a house in the suburbs the kids drove different kinda of cars(no one at my school drove import tuners or brand new cars). so iguess they only asked upper middle class high school students and probably girls ie the beetle on the list. heres my list that probably represents the students of today that went to a school like mine.

1. 96 Impala SS
2. 80′s Monte carlo SS
3. Any rwd cutlass 442
4. 92-96 caprice
5. 77-91 caprice
6. 72-76 caprice
7. rwd olds delta 88
8. dodge charger(current)
9. chrysler 300 (current)
10. tahoe (any year)

Thought of a 3rd, and I own onw. I do love my 88 Sierra, I would like a fast car. My parent did give me my truck for my 16th b-day its because they were gonna sell it and I promply stopped that, Its going to be a family airloom if I have any thing to do with it, was my step-dads, now mine,after maybe first borns(when I have kids) if I can ever part with it. Sorry for the doulbe post

C5 (1997-2004 Corvette), preferably a manual, but an auto would be fine by all means I would drive it. I wouldn’t care if it had HIGH miles like 200,000+, I don’t care, they’re just an awsome car that is EXTREMLEY sexy. The other is a C2 but I know my parents can’t afford a car that $40,000 for a good project for themselves let alone for me.

i jus graduated from high school c/o 08 and my first car is a 1984 chevy steel body silverado 1500 its the most awesomeest thing in the world but i’ve always loved the classics so maybe the new teens are’t capable of handling a the project rides and scared to get their hands dirty

dude i wish i had my 66 mustang convertable….jet black chromed engine, some chrome spoke wheels, straight black with gold stripes….

Just Bought a 1984 Rx7 today.I love it

definitely want an infiniti g35 coupe. shoulda been on that list!

I will be 16 in January but I’m looking at either a 93′ or 95′ Nissan 240SX. I was looking at buying a Mustang at first but they don’t have as much potential. Mustangs are harder to drift than a 240SX.

Im 16 turnin 17 in july. I wanted a chevy tahoe or a suburban but dont have the money for one, especially to fill it. Im buyin a family friends 2000 infiniti qx4. I have a lot of friends that there parents buy them new cars, and the kids crash them and wreck em. I hate when kids get a new car and they never learn its value.

I live in Japan, so I had a different story…

Everyone in Japan wants a Skyline, and dammit me too. The first car I bought was a thrashed and damaged Skyline ER34 25GT-T. Then I sold that for nest egg money and when I turned 19 I invested into a ’94 Integra Type R. I crashed that, and bought a 4-door Skyline HCR32 GTE and swapped out motor for an RB-25DE. Just before I turned 20 I sold THAT skyline and bought my Tommy Kaira edition Skyline BNR32 GT-R.

God damn, I spend a LOT of money on cars…

that list should read
1.1970 road runner hemi
2.1969 camaro\firebird
3.1967 mustang gt 500
4.1969 chevell ss
5.1969 Impala ss 427
6.1970 ford cobra
7.1969 carger r\t
8.1969 G.T.O. JUDGE
9.1970 OLDSMOBILE 442
10.1980 monte carlo

i was 16 and got my first accord,paid all of it myself and sll the mods,tottaled that and got another accord,put in tons of money in that and gave it to my bro,now I’m 20 and i got a benz on 20′s. Parents didnt pitch in a single penney.worked my ass off

im 16 and i have a GMC DENALI…personaly everyone i can think of wants trucks not cars

I’m 18, and I live in Ontario.

First Vehicle – 1984 GMC Sierra 1500 – Blew the engine
Second Vehicle – 1992 Toyota Tercel DX – Totalled
Third Vehicle – 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ – Traded for Accord
Current Vehicle – 1990 Honda Accord EX-R

As soon as I graduate in 2 weeks, I’ll be taking the next year off and saving for a new car..1987/1988 IROC-Z Camaro Convertible..preferably 5 spd manual but will settle for auto..that should run me somewhere around $8-10 G’s Canadian

My parents have loaned me the money for every vehicle that I have bought, and I have paid it back in full. I think that’s usually how things go nowadays.

i’m 20, will be 21 shortly.. my first car was a 98 Intrepid, when i was 16, paid for by myself. The motor was junk and blew up, so i got rid of it and got a 95 Nissan 240sx SE. I did a few mods like exhaust, rims, intake, and header.. I paid for everything except the bodykit, which i receieved as a graduation present. My friend offered to buy the car off me so on insticnt, I sold it, and actually regret getting rid of it. Now, I roll a 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege and love it. I am making the payments on it myself, with no help anywhere. Got a few things done to this as well as saving up for a nice upgrade shortly.

am 18 got my first car at 16 1991 dodge spirit then a 1995 saturn sl2 then another saturn sl2 i want a mustang through the first one my parents paid for the other two came out of my pocket 100%

I’m 17 and I wouldn’t want any of those cars as a “dream car” at all. If I had to pick one I’d go for the charger or the impala. But any I got myself a 97 camaro that I love, it may not be a classic but it’s sure as hell better than any other car on that list. My list is as follows:
1: 57′ Corvette
2: 67′ Camaro RS
3: 77′ Camaro Z28
4: 09′ Corvette ZR1(never gonna happen..)
5: 69′ Charger R/T
There are so many more then that, but you get the point..I love muscle.

im 18 my first car was a 96 3000gt 5speed, i paid 2/3 of it and put everything on it except alarm spoiler and custom exhaust. then i sold it and bought a 02 3.5 maxima myself.

im 17 close to 18. i drive a 1994 camry le. i love it. i think its the shit. neon, subs, intake. all paid for by me and done by me and my friend.

I am 18, i have a 4th gen maxima, and i love it. got it for 6K and i paid half. has 136k on odo.

I’m 20, my first car was 2001 Dodge Intrepid my dad gave me because he got a new car. I drove that for about 8 months, cleaned it up a bit and then sold it for a decent price and bought the car I currently own. 2006 Ford Mustang v6. Bought it used and I love it.

i hate when spoiled kids buy cars and pay people to work on them and talk shit and bench race, instead of REAL racing thats on a track

I would personally only drvie the Dodge Charger and maybe the Mustang. I’m 16 and I already have my dream car(that I bought with my own cash, tha I earned), a 1971 Plymouth Satellite/Roadrunner, my next car that I’m getting is a 2004 Potniac GTO that I am saving for even as I am building the Plymouth.

I am 16 and am buying my own car. I am looking at buying a First Gen DSM probably 2 litre non-turbo. It makes me sick that most of my friends are having their parents buy them their first car. I think that if you work for it and pay for it with your own money that you will take better care of it and apreiciate it more than if it is bought for you.

I am only 16, and will not have my full liscence until mid-July. I do agree with this list, people my age are spolied idiots who work for nothing and have whatever they want handed to them, and whatever they want ususally is a POS import or a 4-cylinder domestic. About 70% of the student drivers at my school are driving 90′s Neons or their parents car/a car bought for them by their parents. I know of only a few who have bought their own car. Also, teenage car enthusiasts are still here. I myself drive a ’77 Monte Carlo that me and my dad purcahsed together as a project (mind you I paid about $2000 into it). Also, a friend of mine drives a ’74 T/A w/ a 305 that he purchased himself. Another friend of mine drives a ’81 Camaro that is a rusted pile of crap, but atleast it’s somewhat of a muscle car that he bought himself. This article makes me sick to know that other people just like me are being idiots and want something like a VW New Beetle for god sakes. Just makes me sick.

I think it has more to do with the younger generation being part of the disposable buying trend. Buy a plasma 42″ TV last year, “oh damn now there is a great 60″ lcd that I just have to have.” So many see cars the same way. Having a new car, even a sensible one is more of a status symbol among peers.

“So yea i’m 16 and some of the kids these days are just plain gay but i disagree in the honda civic. I drive a 04 Honda civic Si that i’ve put about 10,000 dollars into. And just to tell ya ajsofresh my civic will run alll over ur z28 and it’ll get you all the girls you want. Right now i’ve got a Rev Hard Bolt on turbo, AEM EMS, DC 4-2-1 Headers, Neuspeed Cat-Back Exhaust, AEM Fuel Rail, N-tercooler Air Cooler, Skunk 2 throttle body, Buddy club racing spec camshaft, and im tired of naming stuff but don’t under estimate a civic cause i run a 6.8 at our 1/8 mile dragstrip.”
Put $10,000 into a z28 and then get back to us. Oh and btw, you don’t run a 6.8 1/8th mile with basic mods like that. Sorry, get to the track and run it before you run you mouth.

Im 19 and I own a 2001 Mustang GT which I bought myself…It kicks-ass

I go to a HS where few no much about cars most
just wave their hands and a brand new car will
appear, for instance i have a friend who recieved,
as his first car an 08′ Corvette- a car he treats like
crap and i cry a little on the inside every time i see it

ajsofresh jeep wranglers and ford F150s rule along with range rovers,toyotas,jeeps,fords.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is a car for the ppl with first of all money and a personality.
0-100km/h in 4.4 secs
420hp 6.1 HEMI V8 or 313killa wasps

kids of todays age are so lucky. parents are willing to get out their wallet/purde just to make their kids happy, yet let themselves fall in debt. im 15 and most everything i do i have to earn myself. but since my family is in the military we have moved to Japan and i get to use my parents’ car which is a 1995 Nissan Gloria(not sold in U.S.). its the only car we have unless i buy my own which i actually might. the car that im savin up for at the moment is a mid 90′s Toyota Crown(also not sold in Japan) which is the main contender towards the Nissan. But once we get back to the U.S.(sometime between 2010-2013) i get my moms Saturn Vue which we bought new back in 2005. yeah yeah Saturns suck but i love ‘em, im the Saturn type. it is an awsome SUV and it does have the Redline package so i hope to keep it until the sun melts the plastic body panels. i just can’t belive how disconnected families are that parents think they have to buy their kids new things just to make them happy, its just crazy and stupid. families need to connect together and parents have to teach their kids how the life will be and have them buy their own car. the only car that blips on my radar is the VW Jetta wich i have a fancy for.

the only good cars on that list would be the charger or mustang or impala but thats it i too im sick of these little punks and their honda civics thinking theyre driving the best car on the road which is why i drive a 96 chevrolet impala, 5.7L V8 and stop complainng about gas prices we have like the cheapes gas here in north america u should see what the gas prices are in europe!!

well…me, when i was a teen…Dodge Viper lol…crazy right..but true. now I drive a Firebird..(lovin it) but I brought my first car at the age of 18…$$$ wasn’t really good. but yea..lots of parents buy their teens these brand new cars. but if I were a teen today..the Challenger would be it.

I’m 19 and I want a big body Cadillac. I wanna old school one wit a new school engine. Like the 320 hp V8 in the XLR

what’s that list?
……….that must be the “mommy and daddy brought me my new car” teen list. lol

I don’t know about this generation. I’m so sick of punks with Honda Civics or Integras or Ford Probes whatever, who go down to Advanced Auto and buy a couple APC and Street Glow stickers, a bolt on wing, some seat and petal covers and boom! They think they’re cars are faster than shit, oh and you cant forget the fart can. All I know is I have 1961 Buick I’m restoring and I love that car. It’s big, it’s American, it’s a V8 and it gets shit gas mileage, just the way I like it.

I wanted a ’96 Lincoln Town Car like my grandmas, but my parents have the “American cars are crap” attitude, so they wanted me to get a Toyota or a Honda. I eventually convinced them to let me buy a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis with 7600 miles on it and $5,000 under value and with the rest of the warranty on it. It’s red just like my grandma’s Town Car. I’m 19 now.

hell yes to camaros
im 16 and i got a 71 w/ 427 alum. (work in progress)

im 16 and i got a nissan 300zx with a blown engine and was torn up and rebuilt it all by myself, those cars are hella hard to work on

im 18 n i drive a 95 cadillac seville. my dream car would be a 08 cts-v or sts-v n my next car will be a 98-04 body stlye seville. i personally cant stand any ricers. screw hondas, all about american cars

Josh, fat girls don’t count.

i’m with chevyboy4, that list is terrible! i dont care to drive cars, i drove a probe for summer and dumped the pos. all my other vehicles were 4×4.
i’m 19, started with a chevy blazer4x4, then a jeep grand cherokeev8, now silverado. wisconsin

im 16 and im gettin myslef a civic or a corolla those good cars to start with,good on gas n u could put dem nice without havin spend alot of money

So yea i’m 16 and some of the kids these days are just plain gay but i disagree in the honda civic. I drive a 04 Honda civic Si that i’ve put about 10,000 dollars into. And just to tell ya ajsofresh my civic will run alll over ur z28 and it’ll get you all the girls you want. Right now i’ve got a Rev Hard Bolt on turbo, AEM EMS, DC 4-2-1 Headers, Neuspeed Cat-Back Exhaust, AEM Fuel Rail, N-tercooler Air Cooler, Skunk 2 throttle body, Buddy club racing spec camshaft, and im tired of naming stuff but don’t under estimate a civic cause i run a 6.8 at our 1/8 mile dragstrip.

I like UNIQUE cars, I dont want to be driving a car that everybody wants/have it, its boring that way.
I like when ppl stare at my ride and ask questions about….like wow i havent seen one of these in a while….not the same thing over and over again, with diferrent mods in it!!!

I hate my generation. I’m 15, and topping my list would be a 92 Trans-Am GTA or a 90′s M3.

screw buying a $20,000 car. buy a classic for 2500 then dump 3000 into it and you could have a way cooler car than a new ford mustang.

How did the new Beetle make that list? Did they only ask gay guys, and girls?

by me its all evos wrx and srt4s basically any tuner car. you dont go one day without seeing one of those cars. its impossible

1.ttop 98-02 camaroz28
2.98-02 transam ws6 or formula
3.96 impala ss
4.irocz
5.87 monte carlo ss
6.93-97 camaro z28
7.93-97 trans am with the big wing
8.cts cadillac
9.2008 monte carlo ss
10. g35
thats my list!!!!!!!!!!

Im 19 I got my first car when I turned 18, its a 1967 ford mustang. am almost done restoring it but come check it out.

im saving up for a 1998 camaro z28 or ss 6speed it just got to be a LS1 and im only 19
1. Ford Mustang= gets gurls but i ride GM
2. Honda Civic=slow shit get no gurls
3. Honda Accord=shit
4. VW New Beetle=fagit or female whip
5. Toyota Camry=ugly get no gurls
6. Toyota Corolla=small piece of shit
7. Tie between Chevy Impala and Ford Focus= ss impala4sure
8. Tie between Jeep Wrangler and Ford F-150=dont do the trucks
9. Dodge Charger= to big 2 switch lanes should of been a coupe
10. VW Jetta=wackk

Im 17 i got my first car right befor I turned 16, its a 1969 camaro. Still restoring it but come check it out.

Yeah, that list is completely wrong, the only ones on that list that I would even consider buying are the Jeep the Charger and the Impala.

at 14 I wanted a ’66-’74 mopar A,B, or E body with a big block, I would have settled for a smaller engine, but it turns out I didn’t have to. At 15, I bought my ’73 charger with a 440. I’m 19 now, but when I was in high school, my car was the coolest in the parking lot. One of my buddies has a ’69 Mustang Mach 1, but he never drove that to school. There are still a lot of kids who think going fast is important, but there are even more who want the 4 bangers thinking they’re fast

At 15 i wanted a 60′s or 70′s muscle car and got a 72 GS at 16. im 18 now and still have it but would love to also have an old chevelle, nova, stang, anything cool like that, not a honda civic.

Who did they interview for that list. I don’t know about you guys but my top 10 would be

1. 85′ Chevy K10
2. 70′ Dodge Challenger R/T
3. 70′-87′ Chevy Elcamino SS
4. 94′-05′ Dodge Ram 4×4
5. 88′-08′ Chevy Silverado 4×4
6. 04′ Chevy Silverado SS
7. 70′ Chevy Chevelle SS
8. Third Generation Camaros
9. 05′ Dodge Power Wagon
10. Hummer H1 Alpha

Im 19 and was given a ’02 Cavalier with only 40k miles at age 16. I still have that car, done up a bit just so it doesn’t look to stock. Im hopefully getting an ’08 xB soon, pretty good gas mileage and it can fit all my 6’0ft+ 200lb+ friends a little better then my cavalier can.

that “tariq” kid deserves a punch in the mouth for making the rest of us teens look bad. he has no sense of realism in the cars he likes or wants. the cool cars at my school right now are a couple 2000+ cavalier z24′s, a 94 grand am 2 door, and a 98ish ranger done up a bit. and yes we have plenty of rice burners

Im 16 and i drive an 06 G6 GTP coupe 6m. that took some work to talk my parents into. they were looking at sentras. not even the spec Vs, just the regular sentras.
anyway, i think i can shed some light on this one. My circle of friends is the one of two in the school that gives a shit about their cars or has a car with a manual, and that only fits the description of about a third of us.
ex. my friend TJ got a WRX. i was talkin to my friend NOT in the circle, “hey, have u seen tjs new wrx?” “whats that”
also, people have no respect for each others stuff anymore and people ding each others doors in the parking lot and dont leave a note, bumper tap and leave a huge scratch and drive away, etc. so they dont want that shit to happen to a nice car

I’m 15 and my K10 pickup is my dream car. It’s funny, all the kids I know who drive in my town all have muscle cars and souped up 4x4s, none of the rides listed. I just want to know what kind of teen wants a VW beetle or a corolla, no offense to VW or Toyota. Check out my truck under Chevyboy4.

im seventeen and im joinig the army just to get a challenger,a charger, a honda civic, or a 1994-1998 mustang cobra

i’m 16 and i’m saving up for the best of th best i want to start out with either 2000 acura integra,2000 honda civic,98 civic bubble,300z,240zx and after i crash that buy me either a lancer evolution 9, or wrx sti

yea this is a shit list, i know there aren’t a lot of car fanatics out there but this list sucks. If it was me, which I’m 19 i’d rather have a camaro ss, mustang cobra, eclipse gsx, pontiac gto, evo, sti, or vw scirocco.

That list is stupid. I know plenty of people who would rather have some nicer cars than shitty civics, mustangs, and the “New” VW Bug. Is this a list for girls? I mean, I’m not a big fan of the Scion tC, but why isn’t it on there? Or the xB? Those things are everywhere, driven by young people all the time. Hell, I would rather have an EVO or WRX than half of those cars.

I’m 16 and own a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, which I have paid for myself. Teaching me the value of earning the things I want. I have modified it with full exhaust, 3.4″ supercharger pulley, ECU and such as well as new wheels. I have always wanted a ’67 Mustang fastback, ’67 Camaro, or any year Corvette, and will hopefully be able to buy one of them someday.

Im 17 now, but always wanted a first gen datsun 240z but if i had to pick from the list id go with the charger

when i was younger i always wanted a chevy corsica or celebrity and now im 18 and i own both. oh ya, my mummy and daddy didn’t buy them and fix them up for me either.

I just turned 17, my dream car was always old el caminos, got one now! lol
my list was always
any el camino
5.0 mustang
300Z nissan
Jeep TJ,
anything like that, and nothing brand new, i like old cars better

um lets see im 19 now but i always wanted
acura rsx type s
wrx sti
evo 8/9
350 z
240sx
datsun 510
ae 86
civic si
supra
my dads old porche
the list goes on didnt even get started on my american muscle cars

My first car was a Chevy Nova but my son wants a Cadillac Escalade my daughter wants a PT Cruiser

My first car was my 67′ Mustang at age 15. I’m 30 now and still own the car that started the obsession. Cars are a great way to meet new people with the same interests, no matter the make or model. But in my opinion the Mustang will always be the car of choice for young and old alike.

AT 15 I BOUGHT A 95 ECLIPSE RS FOR $2,OOO I LOVED IT AND THEN REALIZED THT I REALLY WANTED A TURBO CAR SO AT 17 I BOUGHT MY 99 ECLIPSE GST AND I LOVE IT. BOTH CARS HAVE BEEN PAID FOR BY ME ALONG WITH ALL THE MODS

AT 15 I BOUGHT A 95 ECLIPSE RS FOR $2,OOO I LOVED IT AND THEN REALIZED THT I REALLY WANTED A TURBO CAR SO AT 17 I BOUGHT MY 99 ECLIPSE GST AND I LOVE IT. BOTH CARS HAVE BEEN PAID FOR BY ME ALONG WITH ALL THE MODS

My first car was a 1993 Chevy Cavalier with over 100,000 miles on it, and it meant the world to me. Shit I was just glad to have a car. I got it my senior year in high school. All my other friends already had cars…………BECAUSE I USED TO RIDE WITH THEM. To get any of those cars on that list brand new or used would have probably made me pass out from excitement. Everyone isn’t so fortunate but once again, I was very thankful. As a teen, all I wanted was either a bad mustang, firebird, or camaro. They were and still are the ass rapers around here. When I turned 24, I purchased my first car and it turned out to be a mustang and I have been on cloud nine since.

That list sucks. I bet the mustang they want is only a v6. My first vehicle at age 15 was a ford ranger that i lifted and got horrible gas milage but it was awesome. My new truck at age 18 is a Ram 1500 with the 318. Its all about displacement. Large amounts of displacement.

I think the list is closer to things the children think their parents can afford to buy but who am i to say I would take any as a first car as long as it ran. As far as parents giving kids cars its ok as i first i believe. I 19 and heres my current list. Parents only bought first for 700

1985 camaro z28
2000 suzuki esteem
1999 taurus
2002 dakota sport (fucking beast on the strip)V8 magnum
1975 el camino
1997 neon
2005 aveo
2003 cavalier

wow…what a bunch of tree hugging sissies!! who the hell wants a vw beetle!? they’re ugly, poorly built, and have no reliability whatsoever! everyone and their mom has a civic (OOhh VTECH! *sarcasm*) and an accord?? didn’t know my fellow teenagers, i’m 19, were into soccer mom cars….good grief =/

my first car was a ’77 280Z, second was a ’88 supra turbo, third was a ’95 infiniti j30, and now i have a ’78 280Z….wow…stupid teenagers…

Im 15 now and my dad has had crown vics all my life and im looking to buy a P71. I will have no help from my parents so its out of my pocket. My ultimate dream car is a ’67 shelby gt500

I’m 20, I drive a crappy 93 grand am that always breaks, I bought it for $600 because I needed a car. I hate it, its ugly as sin and its embarrasing to drive, but it gets me where I have to go and its fairly good on gas. That being said, every car on the list blows HARD. The only thing remotely good on the list is the new mustang. My list would include, 68-70 chargers, 70-71 challengers, 68-72 chevelles, camaros, boss mustangs, you know, the good stuff.

im 19, i helped pay for my first car which was a 99 dodge stratus. however, ever since i was in 7th grade, ive always dreamed of a ford mustang. I thank God that i was able to get a good part time job after high school so i could afford to make payments for my dream car: an 05 mustang gt.

i am a teenager and i have to say: its mainly the girls that wans mustangs
personally im looking at a smart fortwo cuz im not spending all my savings on gas.
but my ultimate dream car is a tie between a spyker C8 Laviolette and a Koenigsegg CCGT

My first car was an 89 Escort LX 4 door with a 5 speed. Got it for 650 bucks. I wanted a 57 Chevy like you would not believe, but even a very rough one was well out of my price range. I tried to get an old Willy’s Jeep, but that was too much work for me.

I’m 17 and my first car was a 88 Cherokee Laredo 4 Liter. My dad bought it on my 17th birthday for $1000. Unfortunately for him it cost $6000 dollars in repairs over the 6 months I had it. Now I’m onto a 2007 Red G6 V6 Sedan that I got used with 35k for grad. The 5 summer months I’m working I pay the monthly payments of 280$ and I also pay for my gas full year round. My parents pay for the other 7 months of payments and my insurance.

these ppl barely have a clue as to what teens want! who the hell WANTS a “new” beetle NOBODY
this is what im after (possably and dream)
92 pontiac grand prix or 2 door beretta
90′s firebird (transam)
saturn sky
saturn astra
60′s 70′s And New corvette (i wish)
2nd gen mitsu eclipse or 4th gen
next camaro or mustang
THE BAISIC THEME IS 2 DOOR SEXY AND FAST! HELL MY PARRENTS GOT TO PLAY WITH MUSCLE CARS WHY CANT I!

I currently have a 2004 Toyota Corolla LE, that my parents bought… but I have always wanted a 97-03 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP or even just a GT. I like alot of cars though, probably considered weird or boring. But I don’t care… I am looking for another car now once I sell my Corolla. I have been finding some nice late nineties BMWs, but haven’t found the right car just yet…

1. 1993 Ford Taurus (Got it for my 17th as a birthday present)
2. 2001 Volvo S80 T6, best sedan i’ve even driven in. (Bought it myself when i was 19)
3. 2004 Ford F-150 (Got it myself at age of 21)
4. 2003 Nissan 350Z (Got it last month, at the age of 22)

How was this poll taken? Who did they ask? Teenage girls or guys? And – if guys – were they enthusiasts or nerds? I’m really surprised to see the Honda Accord in third place. The Honda Accord? Good grief(!). Hopefully at least they meant the coupe and not the sedan. No wait, these kids desire the Accord over the S2000? What’s happened to today’s teenagers? They’ve become a bunch of wussies.

What kind of spoiled brat gets a new car when they start driving. My first one cost $1400 and I had to be the one that fixed it if I wanted to continue driving.

1. 1970 HEMI CUDA
2.1997 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GTP (I HAVE TO 94 MODEL)
3.2008 PONTIAC G8 GXP
4.1969 CAMARO Z/28

if only i had the money. being 18 dosent help either. insurance is outrageuos!

I inherited my dad’s 88 Camry when I got my license (and he eventually got a new car). When it got stolen I already had the Volvo 1800E that I wanted all picked out… unfortunately they found the (almost destroyed) camry so I never got the car I really wanted.

Kids these days are spoiled. I can’t believe the number of families I see where their 16-year-old brat has a brand new car, but the parents are driving around in beat-up old crapboxes.
.
If you give a kid everything he wants, what are you teaching him about life?

yeh yeh i got myself a 2008 wrangler rubicon for xmas and couldnt be happier

I am 16 and my dad works for Chrysler so I got an 08 jeep commander but I am saving up for a third gen camaro

My first car was a 97 Ford F150 that I payed half for (my dad payed the other 1/2). I now drive a Honda Accord, that I bought. My next car will be a 4Runner. That I’ll buy.

being a teen, this list strikes me as a little weird. I guess that’s just because around here most of the guys want trucks. But then again we dont live in the city and most of us hunt/fish or do something that requires a truck. Oh and about the parents buying their kids new rides, that is usually the case, but believe it or not i have a few friends who have been saving up and bought either a brand new or a few month old ride on their own. My parents bought mine, but that was after got a big enough scholarship to save them a bunch of money on college.

Back in 1989, my first car was an ’81 Fiat X1/9. After it was totaled 2 years later, I bought a 66 Mustang(I always wanted a classic Mustang).
From there, I’ve had:
- 3 S10 pickups
- ’81 Honda Accord
- ’95 Civic
- ’89 Prelude 4WS
- ’90 Cherokee (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2576056)
- ’94 Corvette
- ’00 Durango (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2575944)
- ’04 Mazda6(My first and probably last NEW car.)

My first was a 1992 GMC Jimmy ST that I “annexed” off my dad (after he bought a 1995 Chevy S-10 Blazer LS 2-door), then in April of 07, I traded it in (got more than I should have out of it to, it still looked nice but it was a P.O.S., always something wrong with it, especially the front drivers side door, i.e. it didn’t close all the way) to get what I’ve got now.

HAHAHHAHAHAH CAMRY

GOD our kids are LAME!

Two cars jump out from the list as odd……………

the Camry and the Impala. Don’t get it, kids today actually want bland four door sedans? The Charger at least has couple of credible performance/image models, but the Camry?! Really?

Go Geoff.

I’m 18 currently, and I have to pay for everything I do. And I still don’t have a car(maybe i should lay off the super skunk).

If there’s one thing that really “grinds my gears”, it’s seeing a brand new Mercedes parked in the school parking lot.

I guess mommy and daddy pay for insurance for them, too.

As a teenager (18), I can say none of those cars would even be considered in my list of most wanted vehicles. Always wanted a muscle car, not that that’s too realistic with the gas prices. Definitly a fan of the skylines and a few other imports.

Anyways all the cars in that list are cars I see countless times on my short commute to work and back. I would much rather have something eye catching that you don’t see so often.

And also I think it’s really stupid that all these teens are driving these boring brand new cars. My friend who works at a grocery store, not exectly a high paying position, decided he could afford a 08 focus, what’s the point? You can pick up an older car for a fraction of the cost, swap in a brand new crate motor, buy some nice wheels, and still be uder the cost of buying a new car!
It drives me nuts!

Plus your never going to be able to pick up chicks in a focus well not stock anyways…

click above to see my car run on water!!!

I remember that the car I really wanted was an 88 chevy iroc camaro black colored with either black or grey interior. But since my insurance would be crazy I had to settle for a 88 pontiac grand prix I loved that car.To bad some girl ran a stop sign while jerking off her man and totaled my car.

Dodge Viper! But in reality, I would have loved to get a 80′s Camaro or fox body Mustang. I was also obsessed with a neighbors 72 Chevy Step Side.

BTW, I ended up with a 97 Chevy Lumina as my first car. Paid for it myself and it was clean… and boring!

I was really in VWs when it came to buying my first car. I saved up enough money and bought myself a 66 VW Bug. It was a great first car, but I nearly managed to kill myself a few times when I pushed it to far.

I’m a teenager but I’ve always dreamt of having a car from the 60′s to 80′s and thanks to my parents My dream came true! I’d rather an older car/truck cause theres more you can do to them plus they look better and theres usually not many of the same model around.

I’m still a teenager(19), but when I got my license I either wanted an Scion xB or a Toyota Previa (greatest van ever made!!) I have both now and plan to get more of them. At least 2 of each.

I’m 17, my first car was an automatic ’99 Honda Civic EX coupe, I saved up $5000 to buy it. After a year I decided to sell it and was able to buy a ’00 Honda Civic Si in excellent condition. Even tho I lost some money in the process it was definitely a decision I haven’t regretted.

Well I’m 17 and I’ve bought myself every car I’ve owned besides my first, I’ve had a bunch of cars and here’s where the list:
-
01 Dodge Stratus
-
04 Dodge Stratus
-
2002 Mercury Sable
-
2002 Pontiac Grand Prix
-
1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
-
2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
-
2007 Dodge Charger R/T
-
I’ve had a lot of cars within’ the past year and the Charger was the first I ever wanted and by the time I could afford it gas flew up and my transmission went out (twice) so no I’m looking for an 04-08 Grand Prix in White and I think I’m gonna stick to that one, but I don’t like how people think just because your young and you have a nice car that your parents bought you it.

When I was a teen, I wanted a muscle car. I didn’t narrow it down beyond that, but I preferred something from GM over all else, mainly a Camaro or Firebird.
-
My first car ended up being a ’77 Datsun 200SX given to me by my sister. It was faded yellow with a three-tone, wide, age-cracked brown stripe around the body. It was dubbed the “black banana” by my friends.
-
When I was 21 in 1986, I got the car I wanted as a teenager, a 1974 Formula 400 Firebird with a 400 Turbo trans, shift kit, factory Ram Air and an Alpine stereo.
-
Over the years I wanted to get another someday, and last summer I had the chance. No regrets at all with either one.

i am getting a 1993 toyota supra fro japan and i am just turning seventeen and that list that forbes made sucks but yea i am getting a twin turbo six speed supra right after i sell my 300zx Fairlady Nissan
