    Lets figure out what the median is among us. I bet it's pretty high.

    I've had 9.

    3-series Integra Mustang Camaro GTI Z-car RX-7 B13 SE-R AE86

    I need a little help here, as I haven't gotten the issue yet.

    2ish. I currently own an Impreza RS (GC6), and in high school drove an Omni. However the Omni was a 2.2 slushbox the least sporty drivetrain combo in the Omni.

    I can't remember, but I did think it was pretty cool that I had two of the models of car that were featured in the calender in my driveway! An E30 and a 944.

    I propose the placement of the car on the list be taken into account, as does the number you own. First place car gets you 25 points, second gets you 24, etc.

    To figure the number of points, the formula is (26-car position) x number of examples owned

    Thus I have 75 points for three Miatas and 19 points for my Camaro. Since I'm making up rules, I shall also award myself 12.5 points for a Miata-based Locost for a total of 38.5.

    All I've had are two AE86es (okay, maybe 1.5ish when you account for all the rust), one RWD Celica and one FWD Celica. Since they're all lumped together at #22 that gives me a whopping 12 points.
    My mum has a GC8 Impreza 2.5RS, which I've gotten to drive lots. Can I count that too?

    Edit: oh, and I've had the engine from a DSM, twice. What does that get me?

    Miata 25 pts.

    CRX 22 pts.

    Omni (actually Horizon) 6 pts.

    Corrola (does this count as it never actually ran when I had it?) 4 pts.

    57 pts total! whoo-ho!

    Honda CRX I have had a few E30s. Still have a Baur version Ford Mustang. 1967 Still have it. Mini cooper. Had a 02.. now have a Classic VW GTI.. the original one.

    So 5 of them. But they forgot a few cool cars. If the Volvos are there then why not the Turbo SAABs Also a Citroen DS 21..

    1 point for a MR2 and .5 point for a modified Civic sedan. When the 25 Cars that Made No Impact Whatsoever list comes out, I WILL ROCK IT!!!!!

    3ish. MINI Cooper S and a Miata (turbo) in the driveway (a wrecked non turbo in the garage). Also had a Eagle Talon but it was the base model automatic. :(

    If you start extending it to the family (where I heard of GRM from): my dad had multiple Horizon/Omnis and my brother had one of the turbo GLHs (I fell in love with turbos in that car). He also had multiple mustangs, a volvo, and an Eagle Talon TSi.

    I just saw Keith's post, so 25 + 17 + 8. 50.

    (oops actually 2 *25 + 17 +18, so 75)

    57 years old and I've only had three. Miata, MINI, GTI, but they're all in the driveway right now. I've been looking on Craigslist for an RX7. Where will I park all the rest of the list? Previously had a SpecMiata, 3 other GTIs, so,,, 2 x 25, 1 x 18, and 4 x 15 = 128. I should get bonus points for an original Mini ,too.

    That's odd..I actually recieved two copies. One from the home office, and a free one for finally renewing my SCCA membership (well, not technically a renewal, more of a "re-join" since it's been three years).

    I've only had two of the cars on the list, and I have to kinda stretch the definitions to claim even that. BMW 3-series (grey market 79 323i E21) and Golf GTI (92 A2 8v that I still have). Spent some time with two others, my mom has owned both a 3rd gen Camaro and a 2nd gen Honda CRX.

    So what does an Abomination count for? RX-7 engine and tranny, Miata suspension wrapped in a Spitfire body. Add that to three RX-7s, a 79, and 2 83s, and that's where I am.

    From what I've seen so far of the list, I've driven a handful of cars on it, but have owned none.
