Default Who's the Biggest Car Whore?

Who's goes through the most vehicles? Take the number of vehicles you've owned and divide the total by the number of years you've been driving.

1988 Mazda RX-7
1990 Ford Probe
1987 Subaru GL
2003 Mitsubishi Lancer
2002 Subaru Impreza WRX
1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S Coupe
1992 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4
1987 VW Scirocco 16V
1988 Toyota Corolla FX20 GT-S
1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S Hatch
1987 Toyota Corolla GT-S Coupe
1990 Dodge Caravan

That averages out to 2.4 cars a year.

I never had any big problems with the NEON it treated me well.

We did this once before with Sergio (BOO) coming in with lots IIRC.

I'm also sensing a trend in my cars (though the first 4 can be attributed to my family trends, and then being handed down to me. )

In order of acquisition:

1995 Ford Ranger 4x2 purple (1999)
2001 Subaru Impreza RS blue (2000)
1994 Mercury Topaz silver (2001- don't ask...)
1984 Toyota Celica GT-S white (2001)
1980 Nissan 280ZX black/gold (2002)
1996 Mazda Miata blue (2005)
1992 Ford Aerostar red (2005)
1991 Ford Ranger 4x4 silver (2006)
2001 Subaru Impreza RS #2 silver (2006)
1997 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport green/gray (2006)

I got my license exactly 10 years ago today, but I didn't own a car until I was 20. So 10 cars in 7 years= 1.43 per year. I'd be winning if Bob doesn't get to count cars that never ran.

1984 Hyundai Elantra, maroon
1990 Daewoo Prince, black
1994 Eagle Vision TSi, silver-blue
2005 Subaru Impreza RS, white

I've been driving since 1995 (I didn't bother to get licensed till my senior year ), but I didn't buy a car (the Hyundai) until the last year of my military service, which was mid-2000. So that's either about 0.33 cars/yr or 0.57 cars/yr depending on how you look at it.

Only 3 of them haven't ran. That means I'm still at 1.8
