Here's my current stable. The list of cars and trucks I've owned would overwhelm the forum server. <G>
1965 Chevrolet C20 pickup (Granddad left it to me, 56K miles, still got it)
1970 - 1/2 Chevrolet Nova SS (Second car I bought on my own, 43K miles, still got it)
1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS (cloned from a Malibu 2-door coupe)
1995 Chevrolet ImpalaSS (Original owner, not stock, best dyno 338 rwhp)
2001 Cadillac STS (Daily Driver)
2003 GMC Yukon (dubbed out, tinted in, intake/headers/exhaust/SuperChip, etc..)
2003 Z33 Track, Daytona Blue (going from Stock to Rock - ask me about my mod list)
Future Consideration:
2006 Z06 Corvette (But I'd have to get rid of one of the above...any suggestions?)

Im 22 now, graduated from Pace University last year with a B.S. in C.S. and currently working for DELL. Anyway, my list is as follows.
1. 1988 Acura Legend
2. 1996 Acura Integra RS
3. 1995 Acura Integra GSR
4. 1990 Toyota Supra 450+ RWHP, check it out at www.cardomain.com/id/turbotrix, this was one awesome car.
5. 2004 Nissan 350Z Touring in Silverstone, just picked it up last month, and throwing on some ultra exclusive RAYS Lexion 203 in black 19 x 10 with Toyo Rubber . . . TODAY!!!

Good thing Nissan Dealerships dont require you to prove you've driven crap cars before buying a 350z, I'd be in trouble 
Lot depends on how wealthy your family is. Another thing to take into consideration is with low interest rates just about anyone can afford a 350z... There not exactly expensive starting at $27k and used ones for a lot less...
Oh yea forgot to list my cars (born in 1970)
1986: Used 1985 honda prelude (cherry red), was my sisters for a year but basicaly brand new.
1990: New 1990 Honda Accord EX
1994: New Toyota 4x4 (needed it to tow my new jet skis)
1998: New Honda Prelude (Automatic Sportshift)
2000: New Honda Prelude (5 speed)
2003: New Infiniti G35 Sedan (still have it)
2004: New 350z Roadster (still have it)

1996: Buick Park Avenue - I learned to drive this boat. Parking this sucker was a feet. It was my Dad's car...so I didn't really get to drive it much.
1997: 1980 Volvo GL - The thing was as old as me. When I first got it the paint on the hood, roof and trunk had oxydized off. You could hear it from a half mile away...and it was the bad kind of loud. But I got some work done to it and it turned into a decent, tank of a car. It cost my parents $1800. Though talk about slow. The speedometer stopped at 85...and the car began to shake when you got going that fast. Oh..and my 0-60 time was just under a week.
2001: 1990 Volvo 740 Turbo - Still have this car. It came in when my GL died on me coming home from my internship that summer. I paid for half of this car...and did a lot of work to it. It's been the most finicky Volvo I've ever heard of...and has plenty of gremlins. But it's still pretty quick. I took it into the mountains and kept up with WRX's and RSX's in a series of windy roads. Not too shabby for a 15 year old car.
2005: 2004 Nissan 350Z Enthusiast 5AT - The first car I've owned that has been entirely my responsibility. I love this car...it's my Baby and I intend on keeping it untill it simply stops. Even then I'll probably try to make it go again. Got a killer deal on it too, which was what allowed my long search to finally come to an end.
Yeah...so maybe I haven't owned a lot of cars...but I think I've earned my Z.
