My first car was a used 90 Red Ford Probe GT 5 speed manual i got in 2000.. it was a pretty fast car. 2.2L turbo charged four.. the engines in these cars are great..it was so quiet you couldnt here it run. The clutch went out at about 163,000+. Got into a car accident and it was totaled. I really miss that car I would buy one today.
Then I got a 2000 ford focus ZTS 5 speed manual with 63,000 miles.. its still with me It has 188,000+ miles its been a good car ..normal repairs made still runs good.
I bought a 2003 Acura TL-S with 74,650 miles in March 09..the price was good 8,995.. I thought that was a good deal..lovin it shes a keeper.

I had the exact same car. I had 18 inch chrome wheels, tinted all over (including windshield) & a system that would shut down SUV's.......I totalled it on night driving home. Fell asleep @ the wheel! Not a scratch on me but the passenger front tire ended up in the passenger footwell. Luckily I was alone!

2005 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro 6 speed. K04 turbo upgrade, Stage 3 REVO ECU flash, racing downpipe, vibrant dual exhaust with staggered 18 inch DPE wheels. Car was a real beast. Miss her a lot but after warranty, she became worse than my shopping wife. Can't trade in the wife though lol.

2003 TL-S w/Navi NBP
97 Infiniti I30t...flipped 200K miles, needed new struts, one front axle, and was having emissions issues that I didn't want to deal with, so had to go. Had a great stock Bose sound system. I can tell you that my 03 TL is much easier to work on - more room under the hood. The I30 had a very quiet V6, though, and actually a timing chain instead of belt, so low maintenance.
Before that, Volvo wagon, Isuzu Rodeo, Jeep Cherokee, Isuzu Trooper (bullet proof), a 90 Toyota Celica Supra 5-speed (aaahhh), 83 BMW 318i (fun little 4-banger), and a 76 Olds Cutlass w/ t-tops, mag wheels, and a Hurst paint job.

I had a 96 black Honda Accord LX (cdn EX) lowered on Tein S.Tech, 18" gun metal Enperio. Custom CAI, B&M fuel pressure regulator, JDM type R grill, projector headlights black housing and CF clear taillights.
My sister scratched the bumber and cracked the foglight when the brakes failed and she was on a overpass. The car hasn't moved since.

then it was a 98 corolla which my mom only used once a week so it became mine most of the time until sold to repair cost of TL tranny rebuild but we decided to keep the tl over the corolla
