I'm with you. I've always had cars that were a bit different to the norm and it's nice. They were never particularly expensive, just different.

When I was 18 - 25 I had a couple of Preludes during the fast and furious phase, although Preludes have sort of only just become cool now thanks to RCR and Donut Media and the like, but I've always thought they were cool :)

I went through an Italian phase where I had a Ducati when all my friends had HonYamaZukis, they were all great bikes, but the sound of a pasta burner is intoxicating. I also had (still have) a now 14 year old Alfa V6 which sounds about 10x faster than it is.

And now I have my dream affordable car, a car r/cars seems to not really like for some reason, a 300C SRT8. In my bogan town of Australia you can't swing a cat without hitting a Holden Commodore, and I have driven the V8 Commodore and liked it, but having something a bit different (a 300C is a rare sight here) is totally worth it.
