1983 Holden Camira - first car...spent a lot of time at the wreckers and weekends replacing parts...good learning experience. owned for 2 years
1987 Honda Intergra SX16 - saw me through my uni/highschool days...did over 400K Kms...great little engine that loved to rev but it was the body that slowly fell apart. 6 years
2005 Nissan Pulsar N16 ST - Bought this to do speed limint/get some demerit points back/grow up/be responsible. owned for 3 years
2005 Mazda 6 MPS Luxury - now.
Just bought my first car in Australia since I moved here from the UK in Nov 06.
First car was a Ford Fiesta Mk3, bought for 800 quid. The car was a 4 gear 999c beast and I loved it, unfortunatly it clearly it didnt love me, as within 2 weeks of having it, someone reversed into the drivers side door. The Insurance company paid out 400 GBP and i fixed it myself lol. Then it was crashed into again, managed to find a replacement headlight down the scrap heap for 10 quid and then finally it was stolen and damaged beyond repair. I ended up getting a tidy profit back from the Insurance company when all was said and done. Image isnt my car, but very similar!
Car after that was a Mk6 Ford Escort Estate 1.8 TDi with 89 bhp at the wheels. Great car for me as I was always transporting my mountain bike off for the weekends and would drive hundreds of miles pretty much every weekend to go mountain biking some crazy place. I got the car for nothing with about 120k on the clock and when I sold it on ebay for 1000GBP it had 165k on the clock. Interesting fact the odo only had 5 digits, so if you went over 100k it reset. I sold it with a damaged bumper, scratches all over the front of the bonnet and god knows what.
My car was in black.
Current car is a 09 MPS Gen 2 in Red which is 3 weeks old and I love it!

Ok, my list is short as Im only 21, but here goes
1) 1994 Mitsubishi Lancer CC Coupe GL- 1.5 Litre carby fed 3 speed auto. What a heap of shit that I LOVED SO MUCH, had 17's with 225 tyres, Whiteline front strut tower brace, dodgy but effective (slightly) home made rear strut tower brace, Whiteline 22mm? rear sway bar, 2.25" Straight through catback with a cannon on the end = NO POWER BUT ABSOLUTE GOKART, i would out corner WRX's and etc around Glenmore Park (Sydney). I really miss this car, it was so slow, but it made up for it with its corners
2) 2002 Mitsubishi Magna LE- 3.5 Litre v6 manual, one of the most under-rated cars ever, from stock it made a 15.02 at WSID (ill try and find the slip). Had a 2.5" catback with resonator in place of the centre muffler, hi-flow cat, stock CAI with a K&N panel filter, highflow TB, flowed intake manifold (only made tiny amounts of nothing...), Custom DESTROYED engine mounts (fwd with loads of low down torque = bad), exceedy heavy duty clutch, 19"lenso type M with 245 tyres, Hotbits coilovers, whiteline front strut tower brace... On the stock wheels made a 14.79 at the WSID. I still own this car and it is for sale (minus all cosmetics and coilovers)
3) 2010 Mazda 3MPS Luxury- I have only owned this sexy beast for 3 weeks and in that time have put about 2500kms on it, Not 100% sure about modding it yet... Warranty is there after all... Got into it after driving my friends sp23 and fell in love, so I went the next step and got this , (note: my friend is ridiculously jealous)
Ill try and get some pics uo, but as it is 4am, bugger it ahahah
Thanks for looking
