ORIGINAL: gpet6669
Well I have owned a lot of cars in my time, most of which I bought and sold before I was 18. Cali DMV was threatening me to have to get a dealers licenece. The only thing that saved me was that I wasn't 18 yet. Here is the list from what I can remember.
'66 Dodge Dart station wagon
'74 Chevy Blazer K-5 (Full top)
'80 Chevy Blazer K-5 (Half top)
'86 Chevy S-10 P/U
'86 Chevy Camero (2.8L V-6)
'78 GMC Jimmy Lifted w/33's
'87 Chevy S-10 Blazer (2 door)
'71 VW Super Beetle
'86 Chevy Camero Z-28 (305 ci. N/AW/5 speed)-Probably the fastest car I owned.
'89 Ford Ranger 2wd w/body lift and 32's
Turned 18!
'98 Chevy K1500 EX cab 4x4*
'03 Pontiac Sunfire (Wifes)
'02 Chevy Tracker
'88 Chevy Camero (350ci W/ auto, but really bad condition)
'89 Kawasaki EX500 Ninja
'06 Suzuki Boulavard C50*
'89 Nissan P/U 4x4
'03 Cadillac CTS*
I think there might be one or two more in there somewhere. But that is the list. Currently I only own the Silvy, the Caddy along with the Suzuki.

Monte SS'swere bad *** cars I had an 86 also. I was driving and I looked down for a min. and when I looked up the wheel pulled to the right a little because I got in some gravel. So I tried to jerk it to the left and the rear end got loose and I lost it in a ditch.

RE: Fastest car you've owned.
I miss 'Black Bastard'. (My 2000 ZO6)
It was fast, but just not fun to drive. In fact, I couldn't stand driving that friggin thing. I couldn't see very well out of it, it was a pain in the *** for ingress/egress.... etc.

RE: Fastest car you've owned.
I had a 85 Monte Carlo but it was like the base model with the 4.3Liter.
And what do you mean about the ingress and egress Major? I don't know what those mean. I've never heard anyone complain about those newer Vettes. I've always heard Vettes were really stiff and would beat you to death but I mean what do you expect out of a car that was designed from the factory to be a track car? I'd give up my Sierra and my Supra together to have a Vette.

RE: Fastest car you've owned.
Built an 84 S-10 bigblock...fun as hell and was REALLY fast.....i just was stupid and spent way to dang much money building it. But to have a sleeper looking truck ( besides the tubs and 13 inch slicks) that runs 11s is priceless! I lost it in the flooding of the texas hillcountry in 2002

Ingress/Egress = Getting in/Getting out.
I always hated having to fold myself in half just to hop in. I also didn't have room to wear my cowboy hat.
