In my limited order:

88 Mercury Sable, Hand me down I Earl Schiebed and stereoed up, Totalled by an Explorer

95 Nissan Sentra, Now Sister's car, was purple, still called the "Barney Ride"

86 944, first car bought by myself, been to hell and back 3 times and I still love the thing and drive the heck out of it. Amazing how reliable it has become since it's no longer my daily driver!

03 Jetta GLI, VR6 Touque Monster, Daily driver that I can't leave alone

96 Triumph Daytona 1200, Fell into my lap, now I'm learning to ride a sportbike with as much horsepower as my Porsche has!

Fun topic, some of you guys have owned quite a collection!
