What do you do so you can afford all these vehicles?
I'm almost 24 and on my third car (the CSVT), and the first one was an absolute beater, and the second is becoming one.
I work.... alot.

Last car which I MISS VERY MUCH... 89 Conquest TSi with a built engine and 20G turbo!!! Low 12's easily...  First car I built myself. I was G-Machine long before it was cool to be. (f'n copycats!) 1976 Buick Century SE - 455 bored .030 (400HP/600TQ), TH-375B manual shift, 2.56 posi, 4 wheel disc, Magnesium rims with 60 series tires, et cetera... I built it the summer of '89. (if that dates me a bit  ) The picture is old before I repainted it. I did put the V6 emblems back on after I painted it. the sleeper factor was BEYOND huge!!!  
2000 SVT #674

It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

My old car, a 1989 Dodge Aries K, 4 door 2.2 Liter 4 cylider, 3 speed ATX.
Damn I miss that old car sometimes.
It had a small gas leak, burned/leaked oil, tranny slipped, leaked/burned power steering fluid, had to put PS fluid in every other week. It was a bit of a rust bucket too. 
I even remember my last "adventure" with it. A few days (well maybe a week) after I got the Stique, my dad installed that Aiwa CD player for me and the instrument panel fuse kept blowing in the Stique for some reason, took it to the dealer (turned out to be a bare wire hangin from the CD player dad forgot to tape over) any how I had to get my paycheck from work so I though ah hell, I'll take the dodge, about 15 minutes before our bank closed I leave, drive almost 5 minutes to my work, sign for my check which took me about another 5 minutes, drove back to the bank and made it there right on time before it closed, I don't think me explaining how I drove would be very "aproprate" (sp) for the mods. Lets just say I squeezed in between a car and a semi (passing the car) on the highway, goin a certain speed.

91 taurus station wagon.....the car i learned to drive on. overheated and never ran the same after that. we gave it away and the people still drive it to this day then i drove my moms 99 escort for a few months. mom traded teh escort on a 99 blazer, and i got a 91 buick skylark, drove it for about a year, beat the hell out of it, so bad it wasnt worth fixing. traded the buick in towards my contour (about a week after graduating HS) been driving the contour ever since....its been just about 4 years ive owned it! wow time goes fast! i also picked up an 87 bronco 2...for free. it had blown head gaskets. well i fixed them myself and have been driving it as a beater. then the tranny blows up in it so it got converted to a stick also

Since, for some reason, I never bothered to take pictures of any of my cars, including the Contour, I can only post a list:
1. 1976 Mustang II with a 302...ugly as all hell, but pretty fast, considering. I once outran another kid in a brand new (at the time) 92 Mustang GT. He was pissed to have been outrun by a guy in a "Pinto with a trunk."
2. 1987 Nissan Sentra...blew 3 head gaskets before I finally got rid of that POS.
3. 1995 Chevy Beretta
4. 1999 Ford Contour (my current car...)
99 Contour SE
Alpine 7894
Polk 6x8's (soon to be Diamond Audio 6.5 separates)
Fosgate Amps
Kicker 12's
No Other Mods YET (I'm poor)
