My list (not the end by any stretch of the imagination):
83 XE Falcon sedan 83 XE Falcon wagon 02 BA Falcon XR6 03 BA Falcon XR6 97 EL Futura sedan 04 BA Futura sedan 02 BA Fairmont Ghia 07 BFII F6 Typhoon (current - keeper) I've only had 4 other cars other than the above and 3 of those were Aussie made. Not bad for a 34 year old I think. There will be more to add to the list in second hand cars now.

Bought a clean ED XR6 earlier this year as a project car. (Link in sig).
I've only owned Fairlanes until then.

To be honest I have only owned 2 cars. I'm 29 now, and have had work cars since I was 22, that aside, 6 years back I bought a 2008 fairmont ghia and its the one car for some reason I just wanted, and has never put a foot wrong. After a nissan and 2 mazdas, the wife bought a 2012 g6 ecoboost in 2014, and to date it hasn't either put a foot wrong. It may not have the fat and lazy seats that the ghia does, but it's not a bad run around. My family has had a number of falcons over the years. Dad still thinks his 95 ef Futura classic was the best car he ever bought. Compared to the jag and Mercedes he replaced it with (yes 2 cars at the same time) it never went back to the dealer with engine or body problems. He never quite worked out why in 98 when my brother got his p plates the rear left tyre started to go bald fast when the others were fine.....
