    1987 Honda CRX si (bought by parents for Graduating High School- what a fabulous 1st car!
    At this time had BB, 288 GTO and then F40 posters in my College dorm
    room- I always dreamed of owning a Ferrari)

    2000 Kia Rio (first car I personally bought-the cheapest car for sale in the USA at the time- I
    could not afford anything else and Honda, Nissan, and Mitsubishi dealerships would not sell me a new car after paying for Med School, having no credit, and now starting Medical Internship)

    2002 Toyota Camry SE ( traded the Kia in for this, because my new wife was always embarrassed while being driven around in the Kia)

    1997 Mazda Miata (this is truly a wonderful car that I miss-sold on EBay to a guy in Maine when my wife was pregnant with 1st child- buyer flew into California and drove the Miata back to Maine, during winter!)

    2007 BMW X5 (family car that has logged well over 100,000 miles to this day)

    1997 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta (Rosso Corsa/beige manual-MY HEART and SOUL- over 20,000miles driven over 5 years-not quite the BB, 288, or F50, but still working on it!)

    2008 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG (totaled in a head on accident and lived to tell about it)

    2009 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG Performance Package (since i lived from my previous accident, i decided to try my luck again, in this wonderful car. So much HP and Torque that puts a smile on my face EVERY Commute Day).

    Couldn't agree more I have so many fond memories of my first car a 84 CRX. Although maybe it's more about the things I did in the car more than the car itself. ;)
