1987 Chevy Nova - 2 speeding tickets under 18...lost my license for 6 months (basically whole senior year of Highschool) speedometer went to 85...first ticket was 87 in a 65 
1994 Ford Ranger - graduation present...lasted a good 2 years+ before transmission started going bad
2005 Chevy Cavalier - needed something reliable for work/spur of the moment purchase when truck died...bought last April...had some awesome CHEAP roadtrips with it.
2004 Mazda RX-8 - traded in the cavi for this 2 months ago...MOVING UP IN THE WORLD...I've had so many more conversations with random people because of this car...I love it...I drive it everyday on my lunch break just to satisfy the craving and hold me over until after work.
Joys of being 21 and actually FEELING your age. Screw MPG...I don't have kids

1987 Buick Century (V6....I actually loved this car)
1994 Honda Civic DX Coupe (slowest car in the world!)
2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS
2004 RX-8 GT (BIG step up in hp / performance here!)

yea, i kept getting bord with the cars, the 8 however was the fix.
the nissan was a good learning to drive a manual trans car
the bmw was a good sports car to play with my new skills of driving stick
the jeep was a good *** time, i fliped it, got it stuck in almost 3 and 1/2 feet of mud for a day waiting for a tow truck to get me in the pinebarrens, and it still drove strait as an arrow on the highway goin 75mph when i sold it.
the rx8 is, well its a rx8.

rg200amp proved my point. Hell at 19 I was lucky enough to be driving a 85 Hyundai Excel GS with a 5-speed and monsterous power from the carbed 70HP 4 cyl.
