What other cars have you owned ?

[NickCats]

I though it would be interesting to see the progression of prior vehicles that led up to your Boxster purchase.

Here’s mine :

Honda CRX – used ( 1st car )
Chevy S-10 Pickup – used ( college )
Mitsubishi Eclipse - new
Honda Accord - new
Jeep Grand Cherokee - new
Porsche 924S - used
Jaguar X-Type - new
Porsche Boxster - used
Mercedes Benz C280 – used

( plus a GSX-R750, 2 Ninja ZX-6’s, HD Sportster, Softail, and Road Glide )

76 Nova hatch
81 Plymouth Omni
88 Pontiac Le Mans
96 Honda Civic coupe
91 Mazda Miata (still own)
99 Boxster

No real theme there the miata was the first car I got that I wanted. Never really thought about the boxster, just one of those things that kinda fell into my lap, though a 911 has been on my someday list for a while.

I'm a sick, sick man.

[David N.]

'87 Chevy Blazer (college)
'95 Silverado V8 (need to sell)
'00 Boxster S (daily driver)
'02 GSXR750 (toy)

If this pattern holds, the only thing that I can really move onto now is Veyron, an Atom, an Ultima GTR, or an F-16.

I vote for F-16! Crappy 0-60 time, but I can take out cars in front of me

Cars are in order. Bought my first car at 17 years old in 1979...

This photo is a little younger model of my first car, but the shape is nearly the same. So squint real hard, imagine it with rusted Cragar mags on it, faded red paint, and two one-foot wide set of stars and strips running up the hood, roof and trunk.

1974 Challenger (almost as old as me)
1983 Mercury Capri
1984 Mercury Capri 5 liter (zoom zoom)

*Bad car error!* I am too embarrassed to say what I drove here! I think I had 2-3 Chevy cars that "Joe" would drive.

1994 Dodge Stealth (This car sucks)
1997 BMW 318si
2002 Yamaha BWS (No joke, my only vehicle for almost 3 years)
2005 Hummer (present)
2006 Porsche Boxster (present)
