1. 1961 Green Buick Special - Park didn't work, so I had to angle the wheels into the curb and use the emergency brake
2. 1965 White MG Midget - Great fun when it was running
3. 1978 Copper Toyota Corolla SR5 Hatchback - My first new car; very reliable
4. 1983 Silver Toyota Celica GT - I had a T-Roof cut into it. Fun when it wasn't raining. Very reliable. One day I walked out and found that someone had stolen all four of my alloy wheels - at least they put the car up on cinder blocks.
5. 1990 Red Mazda MX-5 Miata - My favorite car of all time: Fun to drive, reliable. I drove it 175,000 miles over 17 years on the original clutch. I would have it still but some jerk ran into it while it was parked and totaled it.
6. 2003 "Paprika" Mercedes C230 Sports Coupe - My 50th birthday present to myself. Lots of little things have gone wrong with it, and with Mercedes even little things cost a lot to fix. I won't be buying another...

Only 6 cars in 40 years of driving. I'm waiting for the Camaro convertible to come out!

Funny you should mention that damn Camaro.....I'm lusting for it too.

I'll never get rid of my little BAJA but its time for a car instead of two trucks.

No, I'll keep both and do the Camaro too...there is one slot left in the driveway.

1993 Saab 900.

2002 Subaru WRX wagon.

2005 Ford Mustang (aka Rocco).

Two.
My first car was a 1990 Ford Taurus...back in 2000.
My second (and current) car was a 2004 Kia Spectra that I bought brand new.

I haven't had a car for twenty years - I always hated driving!

[ronboy]

1977 Olds Cutlass Supreme (my first car, a hand-me-down from the parents) It was a gas guzzler and I loved it!

1983 Chevy Monte Carlo (first car I purchased myself...it was fast and powerful...when it wasn't in the shop...it was a true" lemon"...)

1987 Buick Century (my Dad talked me into this, and I have to admit, I became hooked on Buicks...This was a basic Century, but it ran like a gem! NO PROBLEMS)

1991 Buick Century (my '87 was totaled in an accident, and I quickly bought this car used in 1992. It was a V-6 and had some of the luxury toys on it. It was flawless)

2000 Buick Century Limited (this was the luxury model with all the toys...my '91 was starting to rust, so it was time)

2007 Buick LaCrosse Limited (I really wasn't planning to buy this car. I saw it out in the lot when I was at the dealer for some minor service. My salesman (same one since the '87) came out and let me test drive it. I was totally hooked! LaCrosse is the next level of luxury. It has the Buick dependability, looks sporty, and drives like a dream....

[Newmercedes]

Well I had BMW 2000 and Mercedes 2004. I bought my Mercedes 2008 almost 2 years ago ( Love it). I did have BMW but don't like much. Mercedes is fun to drive. I always buy brand new cars cuz Im not a handy guy. I don't really know what to do if my car has a problem on the road. I dunno but Mercedes is my favorite cars so far. I love Lexus or Audi but I never own ones.

 

[ChickenGuy]

OK, let's get my memory gears in action.

It went like this:

1. Austin Maestro - 'C' reg. (1985)

2. Vauxhall Astra - 'G' reg. (1989)

3. Renault 19 - 'M' reg. (1994)

4. Volkswagen Passat - 'T' reg. (1999)

5. Volkswagen Passat - '03' reg. (2003)

6. Honda Accord - '56' reg. (2006)

So six is the answer.

All of them were second-hand. Turns out that my favourites were all the even-numbered ones.

 

[Nomenclature]

I have a Ford Taurus. First car, and only one so far.

Fuck you, i'm Ford tough.

 

[derelictdarrel]

1-1982 Ford bronco. 300 six/4speed. wish i still had it.
2-1989 Chevrolet s-10. One big step down.
3-1987 Ford f-250 long bed ex cab, 6.9 naturally aspirated diesel. That was a truck to have.
4-1990 Mercury cougar. black
5-1991 Dodge ramcharger
6-1989 Chevrolet cavalier (garbage)
7-2003 Toyota tundra. my current ride.

Seven cars in a ten year period. The Toyota was the most expensive and best running vehicle I possessed. Hope to keep it around for a little while.

 

[TriBi]

Fourteen, if I'm counting correctly.

None of them exactly "excitement machines" (I'm a very practical person ).
