I guess I'm not such a car geek as I have not owned many... :)

These don't really count, but I will start out with cars my parents owned and what I had to drive when I could during high school an college (from the late 70's to 1985). I started driving when I was 17... which was the rule of the house (unless you could afford to buy your own car and insurance)...
- 1967 Plymouth Valiant (car I learned to drive on)
- 1978 small wheelbase dodge van (225 slant 6 manual steering!)
- 1980 Chevy Chevette
- A late 60's Green AMC Hornet
(there was also a 70 or 71 Plymouth Fury Wagon.... only V8 car my family ever owned... never got to drive it as my dad sold it just before I learned how to drive - dam gas crisis!) - All the above cars had auto trannies

My cars (owned/leased - in order that I had them):
1985 VW GTI (5spd)
1987 Ford Tempo "sport" (ha!) coupe! (5spd) (sold the GTI to buy my house... the ford was cheap to lease)
1989 Dodge Shadow ES Turbo (5spd - leased)
1993 Ford Escort Wagon (5spd - bought - needed a cheap car to haul around stereo gear while I was starting out in the stereo biz)
2000 Saturn LW2 Wagon (4 spd auto - leased)
2003 VW GTI
2003 Passat Wagon (back to 5spd yeah! - leased)
