Still don't own a G but here goes
75 Chevy Monza 2+2 (wrecked, ripped in half)
85 Ford Bronco II (dad rolled it, we rebuilt it, I drove for awhile and blew up the engine)
87 Dodge Shadow (bought for $100, beat the **** out of it, sold it for $400)
86 Ford Mustang LX (wrecked, rear ended a tri-axle, fixed and sold later)
93 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS (sold to my brother)
94 Dodge Stealth (still own to this day)
94 Eagle Talon TSI (sold)
07 Grand Prix GT(P) (sold after forward band went out of transmission)
11 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS (current DD)
I feel like I am missing something in there that I bought and drove but can't remember. I also have bought and parted out 8 or so Mitsubishi 3000GT's and Dodge Stealths. I actually picked up a 91 3000GT a few weeks back to take some parts off of for my Stealth and part the rest.

Pre-kids:
87 Conquest TSi, 5-spd
99 Tacoma 4x2, 5-spd
98 328is w/M3 LSD, 5-spd, track car
01 4Runner 4x4
97 Supra TT, 6-spd, favorite car to date.
91 Geo Prism, bought for $200 because seller didn't want to put a new battery in it.
Put new battery in it, (ab)used beater-style for a year and then sold for $800.
I highly recommend buying a car you give 0 f's about at least once in life. Good times.
99 Tacoma Prerunner. 2" front lift. Pro-tip: if you buy a Prerunner to offroad, make sure you also buy a tow strap.
95 Previa SC/LE. 2 sunroofs. Boosted. Mid engine. RWD. Tein coilovers. 18" LS430 wheels.
03 S2000. coilovers, track car
07 IS350. real fast from a dig. hated the transmission.
94 CBR600F2
97 GSX-R600 track bike
01 GSX-R750
01 CBR929RR
Post-kids:
06 Matrix XRS 6-spd. Tein springs. 8200 redline. Fun car, but seat felt like sitting on a chair
12 CX-9 GT AWD
08 RDX SH-AWD with Hondata reflash. perfect 4-wheel drifts when you mash a corner in 2nd gear

2006 350z black base model, 6 years 144k miles from brand new, totaled in a wreck
2006 350z white enthusiast model, from carmax, returned after one day because a body shop told me it had been in a serious wreck and covered up
2007 350z white touring, 2 years
I apparently like this family of cars

2008 Saab 9-7x Aero 6.0 LS2
2004 Saab 9-3 Arc 2.0 Turbo
2007 Trailblazer SS 6.0 LS2
Pre-kids
1998 Pontiac Trans Am
2004 Saturn Ion Redline 2.0 Supercharged
1994 Pontiac Trans Am GT
1994 Chevy Camaro Z28
1986 Chevy Camaro Z28 IROC
I loved all these cars...all fun to tinker with and unique. The thing that is sad is that I bought my wife a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and I love that thing more than I ever imagined! It is pretty quick, fully loaded with 3 TV screens, heated steering wheel, blindspot monitoring, rear crosspath detection, and the storage is insane. The moral to the story, don't grow up and have 4 kids.

15 years ago, when we had baby carriers and toddler seats, we owned a Mazda MPV, and God help me but I really enjoyed that car. It had a 200 hp V6 that was plenty quick, and was surprisingly nimble for the type of car it was. As for practicality... that goes without saying. It was great.

Same car as before, just 5 speed but got sick of that one once I found the G35s were cheap

I had an 03 Jaguar S-Type R with the supercharged 4.2l V8. I had put a Borla exhaust on it and it had 20s staggered. It was fun to drive as it was pushing about 400hp. It was all good until someone decided they didnt need to stop at a stop sign and t boned me. Needless to say I replaced it with a 2011 G37 Journey. I love the G but I do really miss driving that beast around. Nowhere near as reliable as the G so there is that.
