2001 Hyundai Grandure (first car, got it cheap and it was not to shabby) (gold)
1980 Mercedes 300E (needed a car desperately and this was something cheap.. Would've been a nice car had the previous owner looked after it) (burgundy)
2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Platinum Edition (current car) (lightning blue metallic)
Lancer is easily the best car I have owned, also made me want my next car to be hopefully an Evo X

Not gonna bother with parents, that would take too long...
Mine in order of ownership...
'97 gmc jimmy slt
'98 camry le
'06 corolla s
'09 corolla s
'01 corolla le
'10 civic si sedan
'11 wrx sti hatch
'06 corolla was the best daily driver, insane mpg, great torque with auto trans, super light @ just over 2600 .lbs, and nice interior for economy car standards.
'11 sti has been my fav overall, easily the fastest and most track worthy.

Not much of a history...
1990 Volkswagen Corrado G60
Owned from 16-20
1997 BMW M3
Current car with no plans of getting rid of it.
My dad has owned Mustangs, a couple Trans Ams, a '70 Cuda, '69 Superbee, a Nova, and a few other cars/trucks since he could drive. Now he has an '08 Challenger SRT8.
I can't remember everything my mom drove, but I know she had a Camaro convertible when she was younger, some minivans and SUVs, and now has a BMW X5.

There's no way I can recall my parents' cars. They had a lot. But I did take my license test in a '77 Chevy Monte Carlo, fondly remember my dad's Dodge Super Bee, remember having to help my mom start a Plymouth Road Runner whenever it was a cold morning and could go into a long parade of classic Chevy pickup trucks (my dad still has several).
But for mine, although I may forget a few.
- AMC Hornet. Only had it for a few days, then the seller, a friend of my dad's, bought it back. He was more than happy with all the work I'd done on it, but it was still a deathtrap, and the headlights and wipers would turn on and off by hitting bumps.
- '76 Plymouth Gran Fury ex-police car (440 ci engine, pretty much the Plymouth version of the Bluesmobile). I had to talk to a judge about my predilection for speed when I was 17. I barely kept my license, and my dad was ready to kill me. I couldn't take it to college with me, so it sat while I was away. Then my dad traded it to a guy for something lame. I'm still irked by that decision.
Now for the crappy, struggling college student/musician cars.
- '79 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. This is, without a doubt, the absolute worst car I've owned. Nothing but a series of problems and repairs, including one side of the bumper just falling off. It was even worse than the next two.
- Ford Pinto (don't recall the year). My first manual transmission car. Handy as no one tailgates a Pinto.
- Chevrolet Chevette (also don't remember the year). Driving this thing was misery. Unlike the Olds, however, parts never fell off while driving it.
Now for the employed musician to graduate school and real job cars:
- '89 Nissan Pulsar. It lasted for over 200K miles.
- '92 Nissan Sentra. Also went over 200K miles.
- '88 Toyota Camry V6. (shattered my left leg and had to find an automatic)
- '90 Honda Accord. (My parents had it and decided to sell it. I immediately bought it, as I liked driving it far better than the Camry).
- 2000 Accord Coupe (the '90 was old and needed an engine rebuild). I drove this car for a very long time, and it took me through a very difficult time. I still have it. But it has over 200K miles, and I was well enough to go back to driving a manual, so:
-2012 Mazda 3. Bought it last year as my commuter car.
Also driven for a bit: BMW 328i (great), Infiniti G37, VW Jetta, Saturn SC, Mazda 6, Hyundai Sonata (with a manual!), Chevy Malibu, Chrysler PT Cruiser (awful, and I actually got a ticket in it), several other Hondas, Toyota Corolla SR5 (the US version of the legendary AE86), other Toyotas, a few pickups from Toyota, Ford and Chevrolet, and a '69 Mustang convertible (probably the coolest I've ever looked).

You all with your fancy cars. 
here's my cars from the past:
Beat up 70 something Chevy Custom pick up truck that I learned to drive manual. 3 on the tree and the hi beam/lo beam switch was on the floor board.
A 90 something Saturn SC that was a pos. Got rear ended in it and it pushed the truck up into the back seat.
With the insurance money from the Saturn, I bought a light blue late 90's ford Taurus that leaked oil. Had it for 3 years and never had any problems with it. My girlfriend got rear ended by a semi truck
Bought a 98 s10 regular cab 5 speed from a preacher with 240k miles. Probably the best vehicle maintenance wise I've ever bought. Had it from 05 until 09 and only had to replace a u joint. Paid 1200 for it, sold it for 1000 3 years later.
Now my current vehicle is a 05 F-150 super crew cab with a 2 1/2 rough country lift kit, 20" rims and mud tires. Gets about 8 mpg and I let the wife drive it since she doesn't work. It catches a lot of eyes and has 132k miles on it.
Plan on buying a jeep wrangler within the next week. My uncle knows a 70 year old man that has a 99 wrangler that he bought brand new. He used it for checking the reading on gas wells. Wants to get rid of it because the clutch hurts his knees. Wants 4500 for it and will probably take 4k for it. I'll find out this evening

Mine's short, but I have no interest in adding my parents cars.
In order:
>1983 GMC 1500 P/U- Bought it off my Grandad, never ran, and couldn't work on it. Gave it to my cousin for his birthday.
>1982 Chevy 3/4 Ton- Paid about $1500, my Step-dad "Knew the Guy". Word I will never trust again. 9 mpg in the draft, 350 replaced the OE 454, hack-job everything else.
>1997 Ford F-250 XLT- Step-dads by title, but mine for miles. 7.3L PowerStroke, over 200k, hail damaged, but only five people are allowed to sit in the driver seat, much less drive.

1985 - Ford Meteor - Two-tone brown
1988 - Toyota Corolla Hatch - Brown again (grandfather's old car)
1989 - R32 Skyline GTR - maroon - Personally imported from Japan. Decent mods, putting out 290kw at all four wheels.
1995 - Toyota Surf t/diesel - maroon again - plenty of off-road driving
2002 - Mazda SP20
2013 - F30 328i with M-sport package
The F30 is an amazing car but I do wish I still had the R32 as well.
