just one

'06 Mazda 3 - base model w/ 5 speed, ABS + sun and sound package...
traded while 6k upside down a few months ago (now my second negitive roll
over- mostly cause I'm madly in love with the RX8)

current-

'06 RX8 base model... sadly in the shop at this moment cause some old a-hole in a '95 chevy 1500 decided he didn't need to look before he backed up... bent the hood, and damaged the front bumper cover....

got the wife to ditch her scion tC for a CX7 :D

1985 RX-7. It was red, base package and had the 4-barrel carburetor 12A engine with manual choke. Well, semi-manual choke. You had to pull it on manually, but a solenoid would kick it off after the engine warmed up, if you forgot to turn it off. I think '85 was the last year of the original RX-7 body style, bug-eye, pop-up headlights and all. I loved that car.

I won't have Old Rotor beat but still have/had a few.

91 RX-7
89 RX-7 TII

Still have all these
owned at one time -
80 RX-7
00 Protege
I'll throw the 93 Probe GT in as well since it's sister car is the Mazda MX-6
and I borrow my dad's Mazda B3000 truck when I need to haul stuff around.
