Mine was wine-colored and my side mirrors were larger.
I don't have a photo of the actual car but I was usually driving my boyfriend's Pontiac Fiero. Until I was gifted a Ford Fairmont by a friend who ran off to join the Navy, anyway.

1977 Plymouth Volare, 4 door in dark green with a slant six engine

I am actually cheating here - I was not in high school - I was living on a military base, recently separated from my husband, with a 2 year old son. Still - it was the first car I ever owned and it took me a long time to get my license - I was a late bloomer.

I don't mean it took many attempts to pass the test - only one! But I just never felt the need to drive until it became necessary as a single parent living in a small town (Trenton Ontario) that had no reliable public transportation system.

never learned to drive, when I was 18, I asked my father, he said i hadn't the conentration. He was right, I would cause a traffic jam, because I am constantly thinking thinking thinking, normal thoughts for me are "what was there before the big bang" etc etc. I would be so deep in thought, I would forget to go at the green light. But my friend Paul let me drive or attempt to his car in a supermarket parking lot and i paniced when the wall got close. No, somehow I don't think I would be a Lewis Hamiltion.
