1981 Toyota Corolla

2002 VW Jetta GLX
2004 RX-8 (Had to sell it in January due to family/finance concerns)
2005 Suzuki SV-650S (Wife made me get rid of it when we had our baby)
And now I drive a 1994 Honda Accord. Quite a step down, but hopefully I'll be getting something nice and new in about a year and a half.

Funny thing is there are more... I always forget a few of the "beater" cars as they did not really mean anything to me. I also think I made money or broke even on every car except the FD (took a huge hit because friend wrecked it among other things).
