What cars have you had since joining this site?

You have to think about the SVT community, if we don't buy these delapitated SVTs to fix or part out then most likely ALL the parts will end up in the junk yard. We do it to make some money on the side, but to keep the good/rare parts in the cars we all still drive :cool:.
 
I've owned around 30 cars, but the SVT is the last car I bought, so my list since joining the site will only include my current cars:

1993 GMC Typhoon
2003 BMW X5 4.6is
1998½ SVT Contour
 
Let's see

97 Contour GL Zetec 5 speed drove 2 weeks of the year I had it, clutch went and took tranny with it
96 Contour GL Zetec Auto bought with blown headgasket, fixed, drove, sold
00 Sable LS Premium some mods- still have
88.5 Escort GT traded for 89 SHO
97 Taurus SHO V8 rod knock, sold
88 chopped Bronco 2, sold
98 Contour SE sport 5 speed, fixed, hedgasket went, parted, scrapped
98 Contour SE Sport auto 50k miles, no title, parted, trailer?
97 Contour SE 5 speed work in progress -still have
89 SHO rusty but runs great - still have
83 Ranger 2wd long box reg cab dropped 302 5 speed locker project - still have
02 Cougar 3L Hybrid and lots more, summer fun car - still have
01 Subaru Outback Limited Wagon winter beater - still have
92 4wd Ranger fixing and selling
78 Ranchero 500 backburner project -still have
77 Ramcharger 360 backburner project -still have

Not really in perfect order, but close. The Ranchero, Ramcharger, and Sable were all before the first Contour. I would have to say that as of now the Cougar and Sable are my favorite. Sable has been my daily driver (or backup car when driving something else) for the last 6 years. I had a couple other tauruses and a lebaron before I joined up here too.
