Don't worry, this isn't one of those topics that ask 'what's your favourite coaster?' when most of the time you can just look at the persons profile to find that out. I am more interested to find out what was the first coaster you rode, where you thought 'that was my favourite coaster' and how that feeling progressed through the years and how many favourite coasters you have had and for how long. It would also be interesting to find out if anybody has only ever had one favourite coaster. If you still don't understand i'll give you an example.
The first coaster i rode where i thought that it was my favourite coaster was Tatsu at SFMM in Summer 2009 (didn't ride X2 that visit). Tatsu managed to keep the crown for another two years even when it was challenged by coasters like Sheikra, Bizarro and Balder. In Summer 2011 i rode Expedition GeForce for the first time, which was when,Tatsu was finally overruled.
However when i visited SFMM in April 2012 i rode X2 for the first time and Tatsu again, which was when i found it difficult to decide between all three of them. Originally i chose X2 as my favourite, but having had one or two slightly unpleasant ride on it i realised that my favourite coaster needs to be one that gives consistently good rides. In the end i put EGF in the prime spot.
A few months later in early summer i rode EGF and my previous choice was confirmed. However, later in that Summer i rode Goliath at Walibi Holland which really impressed me and after 15 rides, i decided it was marginally better than EGF.
To this day Goliath still holds this spot even when being challenged with Piraten earlier this summer.
You don't to go into as much depth as i did if you don't want to, i was just curious about the journey of everyones favourite coasters.

I305 went instantly to #2. Those two coasters are by far the best ones I've been on. I don't know when, if ever, I'll experiencing a better roller coaster. At least I can't see anything at the moment that possobly could beat them. But maybe/hopefully Intamin has more of these powerhouses in store for us in the future!
