Last car before my 2005 RX-8 was a 2004 Mazda6 SportAT. Definately wanted out of the Ford 3.0L V-6.
And I still have my '69 Boss 302. But at 11mpg, not affordable to drive more then a couple days a year.

I had a 06 MX-5. I loved that car. Very fun to drive. I would not have traded it in but I need the extra room. I still wanted a sports car. No more 4 door sedans for me.
Prior to the MX-5, I had a 5spd 96 Maxima. Very smooth. I could haul *** in the grocery getter!! But it was not a sports car.

Still have my first car, 94 civic coupe with a GSR swap and some other goodies. Previously to my RX-8 I had a 2001 Audi A4 Quattro with a 5 spd trans. I miss that car alot. Im going to miss it alot more once it starts to snow.

<Whispers in quiet shame>... 1999 Saturn SC2. Plastic go kart that fell apart around me, but a good college kid starter car that I paid for. Now I regret paying... ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
But if you count the car I had while doing a tour in Korea, a 1992 Hyundai Sonata.

I like to try new things, I don't usually keep a car more than a year or so...I'm 24 and as you can see, this is my 7th car (plus 2 motorcycles). I've liked the RX-8 since it came out, and thought it would be cool to give the rotary a try

my last car was 2003 wrx, I wanted this car ever since it came out, not a day went by for 2 years that I didnt think about this car, after I finally got it, I really didnt dealing with the turbo lag, the looks compared to the 8 and having to shift so early, after having to spend time for the turbo to kick in.
