1989 FORD TEMPO - my first car.. it was a hand-me down.   Didn't know anything about cars when I was 17, so it just eventually died on me
1992 Camaro Z28 - still have it.   Absolutely addictive to drive, but so much has been done to it that it's tedious to tune
1976 DATSUN 1200 ( forgot the designation ) - 2 dr datsun FRONT WHEEL DRIVE.   Clutch went on me.   Didn't have the time/money/resources to fix it
1984 Honda CRX - drove her to the ground.   Bought it for $500, complete with holes in the floor board, rust, and a broken rad support.   Started to learn how to fix cars with this
1991 Pontiac Firefly TURBO - loved it.   Miss it.   But, I'm spoiled, and hated not having power steering (esp after having the CRX).
1994 Honda Del Sol - loved it.  Swapped the B16A2 into it with Type-R cams.  Sold it for something more practical, but not before driving to NYC with it
1991 Acura Integra - the "practical" replacement for the Del Sol.. also wanted one when I was in high school when it the DA bodystyle became popular
2004 Mazda 3 - still have it.   It's actually my wife's car
2009 SMART PASSION - wanted to try the "fuel economy" thing.. mainly just a daily urban car.   Drove to Cali with it.. Leased it
2010 SLK 350 - now that we have the Mazda, I figure I have myself a toy BEFORE we have kids

  • 1993 Nissan Sentra Classic AT *embarrassed lol* (one of my only automatics, sold it)
  • 1986 Honda Civic Wagovan (loved this car, started having engine problems, sold it)
  • 1999 Yamaha BW's 50cc scooter (my only other automatic, it wasn't THAT great on gas, about 4.5L/100km, but back when gas prices were 70 cents a litre I probably paid like $6/week on gas, $45/mo on insurance, and since I bought it outright for $1600, no payments, it was dirt cheap for the one year I owned it, cheaper than a bus pass and way more freedom, sold it for $1500 lol)
  • 1991 Toyota Corolla (sold it)
  • 1985 Honda Civic wagon DX (really loved this car, clutch went and I didn't have money to fix it so scrapped it)
  • *Three years without a car, from 2004 to 2007, not 1985 to 1988 lol*
  • 1988 Honda Civic Wagon RT4WD (really really REALLY loved this car, it had the SI's non-VTEC D16A6 engine that produced 105hp, had a sweet sounding engine, and had the precursor to the CRV's Real Time 4WD system. It also had a 6 speed manual transmission, which basically consisted of 5 regular speeds and 1 Super Low speed that was even lower than first gear, for climbing super steep hills or getting out of sticky situations. That gear was to the left of first gear. This car is the only car to this day that I've owned that required 91 octane gas. Unfortunately, 12 days later, a guy ran a red light and destroyed the car. I cried signing that car to be written off. The only consolation was that ICBC gave me its book value of $2295 when I bought it for only $800.
  • 1991 Toyota Corolla, I bought it back from the guy I sold it to originally, sold it when I got...
  • 2008 Toyota Corolla, I ended my ban against getting car loans and finally got myself a new car. It was a 0% finance for 48 months so wasn't bad, but I only had it for one year before I traded it in for my 5.
1998 chrysler intrepid
I missed the space but nothing else!

Did each corner of the car have different postal codes? Cheesy

1986 Toyota Celica GT -- June 2003-April 2005 -- loved this car, but was in 3 accidents with J-bodies and finally the last one (t-boned me) and wrote it off..
2001 Honda Civic Si -- April 2005 - January 2007 -- good on gas... that's about it
2007 Pontiac G5 GT -- January 2007 - July 2010 -- good for the beginning, just about went insane with the interior rattles and idiot service departments @ GM
2009 Pontiac G8 GT -- September 2008 - Present -- 'our car', aka his car that lays the beatings lol -- for sale....

1986 chev chevette (hand me down from my aunt/grad gift) needed repairs but a good car otherwise - sold
1984 Chev chevette yes i owned another - sold it for parts because it had an VI against it
1984 ford mustang - 5.0 C4 automatic trans with stage 3 shift kit it went pretty good
1989 Chev blazer - drove this thing to the ground it was a good car though; beat it at stave lake and everything but it just kept going then I gave it to my brother in-law and he scrapped it after driving it for a bit.
1994 gmc jimmy - only had it for a few month then decided I didn't want it so I sold it
2004 Pontiac sunfire - this car was an awesome car I babied it. cherry bomb and stereo. got rear ended on a freeway on ramp with my 2 month old child in the back (stereo saved his life) - written off
2004 Mazda 3 - current vehicle. I like my car but kinda want something else that is not ford and has more room.
1992 jeep Cherokee 4x4 Laredo - It's my dad's but he is currently letting me use it until whenever (may just keep it forever). Back and forth to work only to much gas with the 4.0HO
Also a 1994 Nissan pathfinder somewhere in there that i got rid of because it didn't pass aircare and i didn't want to spend money on it - i only had it for like 1 week

Did you mean all intents and purposes?  Other wise what intensive purposes did you have in mind?  How intensive do you get in it?  Grin  I've let my imagination run wild!
