First president to own a car while living in the White House?

My guess is Franklin Roosevelt. There is not much reason for a president to own a car while he lives in the White House. Harding knew how to drive when he became president but I do not know that he kept a car once he was president. Coolidge never learned to drive, so I don't think he would own a car while he was president. I know that FDR owned a special car with hand controls that he used when was at his little white house in Warm Springs, GA.
