Ended up just like that too
I drove an early 90s Toyota Tarago (Previa in the states, Estima in Japan). A little odd I guess, but came in handy when I started playing in bands.
Not the one, but similar to this:
82 ford escort, standard, fwd. i beat the shit out of this ride.
Got my sisters 1986 Chevette when I was 16
1962 chevy Nova hardtop - 2 door no post
blew up the engine going 90 on the 101 between Santa Barbara and lompoc, sold it for $1000
Almost exactly this, but without those pimp rims:
