Hey! My first car was a Mustang too...but don't remember the year.
Next came Chevy Nova Ford Escort (?) Laser Chevy Caravan (enter the mom years with a mini-van) Lumina can't remember but it was blue ATM I'm driving an Impala
'74 Ford Mercury Capri - my first car '92 Ford Ranger Pick-up - it was purple! :-) An old Dodge Ram extended and camperized van. I loved this van. - I cried when I sold it... so many road trips and camping memories. (sniffles) '06 Toyota Matrix - blah
Now drive a 2008 Mini Cooper and if I never have another vehicle in my life, I'll die happy cos I *love* this car.
I loved it too. Really reliable and zippy. And I could sleep in the back. I live on an island and often slept at ferry terminals after missing the last ferry off the mainland. It was a great car hotel! :D

Hubby drives a 2005 Mercedes presently. The teacher in Priesthood one time told everyone that owning a Mercedes was evil and they should sell it and buy a less expensive car. My husband looked around and realized that he was the only Mercedes owner. :)

1959 Plymouth Savoy, all black. First car, bought in 1968, lost it when I was t-boned in 1969.
1964 VW bug. Bought in 1969 on finance. Still have it. Still drive it.
1969 Dodge camper-van. Rescued it out of a co-worker's driveway in 1985. Rebuilt the motor. Still have it. Still drive it.
1991 Dodge Grand Caravan. My late sister just gave it to me in 2004. Drove it until it's transmission wouldn't shift into high for the freeway. Being rebuilt as I speak. BIL will use it for the time being.
1968 Cougar (my 1st as a teenager, sad when my exDW totalled it) 1917 Model T Touring (in the garage now) 1920 Oakland 4 dr (in the process of restoration) 2009 Mazda 2500 B pickup (it kept going 'til it was knocked off the road) 2008 Chev Suburban (good vehicle, but ALWAYS hungry)
• 1981 Plymouth Horizon, "The Blue Bomb," retired when the engine burst into flames while I was 8 miles from the nearest anything. • 1989 Chevy Corsica, unnamed ('cause I hated it), retired due to paint cancer of the roof. • 1995 Honda del Sol, "Dede Jo Speedster," recently sold to a stripper. :-D I had that car for 17 years, put 118,000 miles on her, and loved her dearly. I still miss that car and am sorry I sold her. • 1993 Isuzu Pick'emup Truck, "Daisy," sold to the owner of a head shop. It was my second vehicle that I had for a while during the del Sol years. I needed a garden truck to haul s**t around and Daisy served me well. • 2012 Fiat 500, "Sweet Pea," still driving her. She only has 15K miles on her and the paint is peeling off near the sunroof already. I have to drive about 160 miles to the nearest dealer to get her fixed, so I think it might be more convenient to just trade the damn thing in and get some other car that I can get worked on locally. If you wanna buy it, let me know!

I seem to like Hondas and Toyotas. I love the 1989 to 1994 Hi-lux pickups. I wish the Toyota Tacomas weren't so big, or I'd own one of those...
I can't help but notice the lack of brand loyalty in these lists. We were all doomed in the pre existence to change our religious beliefs. It's not our fault it was pre programmed :)
I can't remember all the dates but here they are, or at least some of them. There must be a few I've forgotten over the years, such as those that didn't appeal to me:
Mini Cooper/Suzuki 250 motorcycle Land Rover Morris Marina Ford Escort Peugeot 405 Rover 820 x 2 Ford Fiesta Zetec Renault Clio Suzuki Jimni Jeep
