My first car was a 1G Eclipse. It was a good car, but found it's end when it had a small meeting with black ice. the ice decided it didn't like my car, and sent it to it's friend, chevy blazer who was waiting me with open arms on the side of the road.
My second car was the ultimate POSer. The Ford Tempo. If that car breaks down now, I'd be surprised. I've changed just about everything on it except for the internals. I might rip Ford off of it and put Advance Auto on it instead
Current car is my 240, and I hope to keep it for quite some time

Still have my first.
1995 HOnduH Accord, daily driver, occasional autoX'er
I love it. It gets great mileage, never screws up unless I do something to it, looks great (ignore the side panels-those are speed wrinkes-you get them from backing into other cars), but most importantly-It has good resale value.

My first car was a 1985 Chevrolet Suburban Silverado (RWD). Bought for 4k back in '95. Unfortuneately I still have it (it barely runs now, head gasket leak). Used to be pretty pimp to watch people scurry away as the beast drifted sideways up the street in the rain (gottal love them LSDs).
Second car, er truck-00' GMC Sonoma ZQ8 (like a chevy xtreme w/o the body kit)
Second and a half-95' GMC Jimmy 4X4(split the cost with my father)
Third-96 Nissan 240S. After a year of ownership, I will never by a truck again.

87 Dodge Omni. Oh yeah. The shocks were blown and when I'd come to a stop light I'd keep pulling the e-brake for the 'hydraulics' effect. And when I wanted the back to dip down, I'd hold the e-brake and give it gas. I could put on a show at the stoplights. Girls would laugh but I'm not sure if it was at or with me.
