Age Acquired - Year Make Model - Comment
18 - 1978 BMW 320i - Fun little beater that got me hooked on the roundel , I paid $600, drove it for a summer, and got my money back after the dealership failed to transfer the title to me
19 - 1989 BMW 325i - great college kid car
21 - 1991 BMW M5 - bought after lucrative summer internship at IBM, it had 170k miles and I lost my a$$ after several thousand in repairs in the first year
23 - 2002 Acura RSX - responsible car for new college grad, autocrossed for two summers (desperately needed an LSD and better tires)
24 - 1998 BMW M3 - My dream car all through college!
26 - 1991 Ford Escort - inherited from my grandma and sold the M3, bought a larger house for my growing family, traded in after the brake lines blew out on my drive way (better than freeway!)
27 - 2004 Audi S4 - loved the V8, hated the lack of driver connection and it felt HEAVY
28 - 2007 Honda Civic Si - loved it, but felt too imature and longed for RWD
29 - 2007 BMW e92 335i - one of the longest I've kept a car, sold it to a friend so I could upgrade to a more practical car for my growing family (three kids now)
32 - 2011 BMW e90 M3 - should be delivered today !!
