What Did You Drive Before You Drove A MKVII Golf, GTI or R?

Jeez, you guys have owned a lot of cars.

I've had exactly 2 in 25 years.

1994 to 2004: 1992 base Toyota 4wd pickup.

2004 - 2018: 2001 BMW 330

I really like to get my moneys worth out of cars. To be honest, I wish I'd kept the truck all this time. Those things last forever with minimal upkeep. I could have saved 50 grand+ by now.

Can't think of how many cars I've gone through since before the gti. Only worthy ones I've modded would be:

'10 Subaru STi hatch



'95 Mazda Miata turbo

It was. I regret selling it. Such a blast to drive with the golden 200whp/204wtq. Not too much and definetly not too little for such a tiny car.

Yep I miss the power and that glorious V8 sound. Had to lemon law it or else I'd still be driving it. I do have a problem though lol.

Sucks about having to lemon law it. I never had any issues with mine.. granted, I only had it for about 13 months (16k miles). I had dynomax mini race bullets, custom cue ball shifter, hellcat lower airbox w/headlight intake tube, and the hellcat air filter (flowed 70% more air).

Beautiful. I had probably the rarest color on the Charger Scat. I believe it was only 184 made in Green Go. I would upload photos but it keeps saying they are too large.

Looked just like this one.

1999 Audi A4, 2.8L 30v v6. Had it for over 8 years, sold in 2017 to buy (in part) an engagement ring, and used the whole thing as an excuse to time the purchase of a new ride. Test drove a DSG, not nearly satisfying enough. Test drove my 6MT and haven't looked back. The Audi was a 5MT. I miss Quattro...

I am 31 and I’m now tooling around in the most basic car I have ever owned ... 1.4 TSI but I love it!

Living in South America where cars are 39% more expensive than the rest of the world and they need to be paid for in cash, the equivalent to $30K USD is where I drew the line.

Some of my previous both in the US and Colombia :

Also owned a 07 Maxima, 12 WRX, 08 C300, 95 Dodge Neon, 97 Saturn SL2 and a bunch more that I can’t remember right now.
