We had a Nissan Pulsar and traded it in for a Nissan 200 SX.  We also had a Nissan Sentra (and I still have my 1987 Sentra-but my 1985 was killed in an accident  :\'( -two weeks after I finished paying it off  >:().

I was old enough to have a car in the '80s, but I never did.  In fact, I didn't get my driver's license until I was twenty.  It's a long story.  Anyway, my first car was a 1984 Toyata Camry sedan which I got for a song in 1992 and drove from hell to breakfast.  It finally died in 1996 with 218 thousand miles on it.  I still suspect I could have gotten 280 thousand miles out of that thing if I'd done just a little more preventative maintenance.  In those four years my average annual mileage was 25 thousand miles, so it had a good run!
I was looking for a picture of the year and model, but I couldn't find one.  They were still boxy looking that model year.

In the 80s I had one of these, although it was made in the 70s. Mine was red though.

I had a blue 86 Mustang LX 4 speed with gold rims. The guy who owned it had died and his executor sold the car. It was haunted. The radio buttons couldn't be reprogrammed until I got the new title in the mail.  :o
