About a dozen 1964.5-1970 Mustangs. All but the last were 6-bangers. Last one was a 1967 coupe (Mexican-block 302 +0.030 (plus other mods), 4MT (Toploader). Got rid of it and a 1998 Pontiac Gran Prix GTP (3.8 V6 Eaton SC and a HUD) to make room for the 2009 370Z Touring I had.

1968 Dodge Dart GTS (hi-po 340, bumble-bee stripe)

196x Rambler station wagon

1972 Dodge MaxiVan (great party wagon)

1968 Pontiac Tempest (230 OHC I6)

1979 Chevy Camaro Berlinetta (replaced 305 with built 283 after warranty ran out)

1964 Plymouth Valiant (slant-6, baby-blue)

It wasn't as long as it looked--only about 20 years. I traded the 300ZX in on the Infiniti--had > 250,000 miles on it. I would have kept it longer except it had the electronic dashboard which was getting very flaky and unreliable. I couldn't even find a replacement from a junkyard to take a flyer on at anything near a reasonable price. I never had a mechanical issue with it.

Man. That's a lot of cars for someone who's 40. I may be forgetting some too. Took 3 accords to over 200k miles (didn't buy them new though). My MO is buy late model Japanese luxury, and occasionally be an idiot and buy a huge American barge. As much as I love my Z, and I love it a lot, I wish I had my turbo SC back sometimes.

I didn't actually get my driver's license until I was few months shy of 18 years old, but I was given my first car at 15:

1981 Datsun Stanza hatchback 5MT (inherited it from Grandpa with 140K miles - put another 50K on it before donating it)
1988 Nissan Pathfinder 2dr (inherited it from Dad with 220K miles - put another 100K on it before some idiot hit me and insurance totaled it).
2005 Ford Explorer Sport 2dr 5MT (bought it with 50K miles - put another 100K on it before donating it in exchange for the CR-V).
1999 Honda CR-V (inherited it from Dad with 200K miles - put another 150K on it before I gave it to my cousin who promptly killed it by not changing the oil :mad:)
2001 Nissan Sentra (inherited it from Grandpa with 50K miles - put barely 2K miles on it before trading it in on a new Z for my wife).
2004 Honda Accord EX-L 6MT (bought it with 40K miles - put another 60K on it before trading it in on an Acura lease for my wife).
2011 370Z (inherited it from my wife when we got her the Acura - 91K miles and still going strong :driving:)

I can't believe one of the most integral members of this forum got his Z as a hand-me-down.

What might have been if you had been handed another sedan.

Butterfly flaps it's wings and all that.
