This is going to take a LOT of thinking:

1973 Dodge Dart Sport (worst quality car ever made)
1976 Oldsmobile Omega hatchback
1977 Buick LeSabre
1980 (?) Datsun (now Nissan company) 510 hatchback
1983 (?) Datsun 280 ZX 2+2 hatchback/T-bar roof (last year for the 280ZX model)
1988 Mercury Sable
1989 Pontiac Bonneville Sport
1995 Nissan Maxima
1996 Ford Explorer XLT 4WD (most beloved, but plan to replace with a 2006 Lexus GX-470 when it arrives)

86 Honda Civic DX, sold it for parts @ just over 500k km
95 VW GTI VR6, sold @ 101k km
67 VW Beetle, still in storage
98 Lexus SC400, sold @ 62k miles
2002 VW Jetta GLI Lemon'd
2002 VW GTI Lemon'd
2003 Infiniti G35c, sold @ 31k miles
2003 Infiniti G35 Sedan, still have it
2003 BMW 330i, still have it.

All black, except the beetle (yellow, it's my wifes), and the BMW (silver, also my wifes).

BMW will be gone in February, not sure what we'll replace it with. I'm leaning towards a Legacy GT at this point, but I might just wait till the '07 G35's come out.
