I actually never owned a goat. My dad had a 66 iirc when I was a kid, but I never drove it. Other cars I had, not pictured here, were a 1968 Camaro, a 1973 Challenger, a 1987 Chevy S-10, and a 1993 Ford Thunderbird.
I won't have any pictures of my 1941 Ford Coupe until I get back home to Phoenix. Didn't bring any here to NY with us. Before anyone suggests it, I didn't buy it brand new in 1941!
The last card I bought brand new was a midnight blue 1999 Cadillac Deville Base Sedan 4.6L V8 with a powder blue cloth top. It's still in my garage back home (I hope!) and my nephew is supposed to be starting it up at least once or twice a month.

My first car...Not actual car.
My Current one...
Actual van.
My very first car was a 1980 VW Jetta...what a POS. If you drove it too long on a wamr or hot day, it would overheat and you had to sit and wait for it to cool down before you could go again
Current vehicle is a 2005 4WD Ford Ranger....it's the 2nd straight Ranger I have bought v(it replaced a 1999 Ranger) and I love it.
Never really owned a car.
Here's my current set of wheels:
My very first car was a white 1988 Chevrolet Cavalier 2-door, passed down to me by my parents in 1993. I drove that car into the ground and replaced it with a black 1997 Honda Civic HX 2-door that I bought new and paid off myself. In 2008, I was in a pretty bad car accident (I was rear ended at a red light by a Dodge Ram going at least 50 mph), and that effectively destroyed my Civic. With what little money that guy's insurance paid out to me (around $4800, I should've sued his ass) and some money I had been saving up, I put a healthy down payment on a used Grey 2006 Honda Civic EX 2-door and am currently paying that off.
My first was an awesome piece of shit. A 1989 Mazda 626. It had power everything, and it all worked really poorly Sometimes you'd turn on one thing and the other would go. You didn't need keys to open the doors and they flew out of the ignition going around corners. The door-handle didn't work from the inside so you had to wait while the ridiculously slow power window rolled down to let yourself out, then wait to roll it back up. Such a death-trap. It leaked break fluid and burned oil like crazy. Just a lot of great quirks that my friends and I loved. SO many funny stories and awesomely good times in that car. Being the first one with a license and car in high school was a dangerous gift. Too many fond memories. I probably should have died in that thing. It was kind of a sad day when it went to the scrap yard.
A 1998 Nissan Pathfinder is my current car. I've had it for a few years. It has been good, no real problems and it's a lot of fun to drive. It's great for going up the mountain, camping and snowboarding because of the 4x4 and and it's really nice when the weather is nasty. Driving a big car is fun, but the gas millage is a major downside. It's a beast in that regard, especially living in a city of old people with stop and go traffic.
My brother is going to take it off my hands soon, and I'm going to be getting a new sedan of some sort. I'm thinking a nice little Mazda 3. After I find a job that is

No, sorry Goof - no GTO in my history, either. When I could afford them, they were too gas hoggish. Now, they're collector cars.
