How many cars do you own, or would like to own at a given time?

[Danny]

I have two. 2012 Gti and my S50 E30.

[shameson]

Right now I have two:
'91 318i and '99 528i touring

Realistically I'd want to add another one in the future for nice days:
-a motorcycle or
-a nice plastic bumper vert
-a Mercedes W108

Ideally if money wasn't an issue I'd own a whole stable..
-REALLY want a Mercedes e63 amg wagon
-e30 m3
-Mercedes 190 Evo 1/2
-short body Audi Quattro

[DEV0 E30]

I have two. 2012 Gti and my S50 E30.

Danny has the right idea. People underestimate having two completely different cars with different feel/purpose. Decent daily (likely with a warranty) + fun car.

Currently I have 2 E30s, one project and one daily. But I use the SO's 07 Civic often. They aren't bad cars, just bland.

---

Within a few years or so I'd like a total of 3, but I'd be ok with just 2 for me if the SO upgraded to something else.

- Another Estoril Blue Z3 M Coupe, because I miss my old one.
- Project E30 maybe not finished, but further along.
- Something meh (Honda Civic/Hyundai) with a warranty*

Ideally, I could add another into that mix, that had space+all wheel drive, but it's not necessary for me right now.

---

*So I can easily get the Shoe and E30 on a ridiculous warranty where if something were to happen to either one, I wouldn't go on a path of destruction fueled by rage when I receive an offer that makes me go berserk?

[Zacm829]

Currently have 3 cars and a bike.

E30 with m62 swap in progress
E34 wagon
TJ wrangler
Triumph 675

Would like to sell the bike and jeep and move into a 135i for a while. Then most likely trade that in on the new turbo diesel colorado when it comes out next year.

[13bpower]

ZJ, E30, and Scooter.

[BillBrasky]

I have 5 at the moment and none of them sit outside.

88 M3
89 325IX
90 325I
99 Carrera 4 - looking to replace it with a 996 turbo or 997 carrera
94 Chevy Z71 - looking to replace it with an 01-02 2500 HD or a new Z71


Over the next 2-3 years I am hoping to add another e30 M3, 2002, Datsun 240z and a Datsun truck. Somewhere along the way I'll need to add an air cooled Porsche.

[rturbo 930]

Currently own 5 (4 POS, and my e30). I'd like to own just one, but I know it'll never happen. There's too many cars I'd like to own.

I still own 5, and now they're all shit. lol. My E30 developed what I'm pretty sure is a rod knock. I should have a new motor for it in a week or so.

I'd really like to own just two. One of those will be a 70-72 240z. The other will be a sedan or wagon of some sort. For now, it's a MK2 Jetta. In the future, I'd like to get another E30 (sedan this time) or maybe something newer like a WRX or E46. There's a lot of other cars I'd like to have, but I've got limited time, money, and space, and I don't like working on cars. A big stable isn't gonna work for me.

Current line up:

71 240z - rusted beyond repair, gonna be selling my E30 to fund the purchase of a solid chassis.
76 280z - more rust than I can handle, gonna sell it or scrap it.
53 CJ3B - loads of rust, might get rid of it.
86 Jetta - DD, may 16v swap it, may sell for a 4Dr E30.
88 E30 - for sale.

[einhander]

Two cars right now.

Ideal stable:
E30 M3
1995 Range Rover Classic
1996 Ferrari 550
1991 318i

Not greedy.

[red baron]

Current
86 325es (I have a "built" s50 but it's in the shed)
84 GTI
71 type3 squareback (for sale
04 Camry (my wife's whip)

ideal additions
My wife really wants an 08-13 Grand Cherokee
E39 M5
SG9 Forester sti
Vanagon Westy

if I play my cards right
I'd love to build another ratrod or 2 a truck and or a sedan (no verts)
e30 325ix
B5RS4
E46 M3

if I won the lotto the only thing I'd love to add
Lambo Countach 25th anniv white on white

[Ray Smoodiver]

1996 Ferrari 550

Yes. This. Absolutely.



Currently have 2 cars, the E30 and an E350 Merc.

Ideal garage at the moment would be:

Ducati Monster (commuter)
Mini Cooper JCW (daily)
993 Porsche (weekend)

In a perfect world with lots of space and "reasonable" budget I'd have:

1994 Mercedes E500 (runout model with all the fruit please)
1990 BMW 325iS Evo 1 (ie: my E30 right now)
1996 Porsche 993 RS (clubsport pack preferably)
1995 Audi RS2 (in blue, natch)
2005 BMW M3 CS (90% of the CSL at not 90% of the CSL price)
1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 6.5 Makinen (I still miss mums - yes, really)
1996 Ferrari 550 (with the HGTE handling pack)
1993 E34 M5 3.8 (5spd model with the Nurburgring package - probably difficult to find)
2001 Lotus Exige (series one, probably with a Honda motor swap)
2009 Maserati Quattroporte S (That noise!)

I say this is a "reasonable" budget because every car can be picked up for less than $50K USD right now, save for the 993 RS, which sadly was only €80K euro some 9 months ago, and is now trading at over €200K euro.

[SGT4677]

The current fleet is 9ish,we dont have much use for sense,common or otherwise.
oldest to newest

1968 ChevyII Nova - long suffering project
1974 Laguna S3 - basketcase factory 454 4spd car
1978 Lincoln Mark V - Moby Lincoln,the great white whale.It followed the best Wife ever home one day
1985 325e -Wifes beater auto DD
1987 325 - 350 dollar parts car
1987 e30 racecar-The reason she is the best wife ever,and drives a beater.
1990 325is- My DD and track rat.
1995 Chevy K2500-DD/Tow rig
2013 Cargomate car hauler

We go through a lot of cars,and she is making noises about a 6spd touring lately so I suppose that will be next.

And about a year later the fleet count is down
1968 Chevy II Nova- still suffering
1985 325e- Now daughters car, and going strong at about 300k
1987 325-350 dollar parts car
1987 e30 racecar- new engine in work
1990 325is-poor little rat
1995 K2500-Tow rig
2001 525i 5spd-The best wife evers new e39,now with 21k miles.
2013 Cargomate car hauler

Everything can fit in the driveway now, yay! I've been thinking that I want another Vette convertible but I should just save the money and get that Art Morrison subframe and tubs for the Nova.

[Nick_S]

Currently own two.
My e30 which is in the garage unless the weather is nice.
My e34T is my daily, road, trip, bike hauler, everything car.

Ideally I'd love to have those two, plus a motorcycle. Just haven't pulled the trigger on one yet.

[z31maniac]

Currently 3:
- 4Runner (DD), 06 Miata (old DD and getting ready to go up for sale), 90 Miata track rat (currently being parted out).

In the future, I'll probably pay off the 4Runner then buy a weekend and occasional track car instead of having a dedicated track rat. I just don't like all the money and effort it takes for a dedicated track.

[BillBrasky]

You can tell we're all car obsessed Americans. My list of cars is growing and I have a 2 mile drive to work. I probably only put about 7-8k miles a year on all of my cars as a whole. After I buy a new house this summer I'm going to be able to walk or ride a bicycle to work and my mileage will drop even further. It won't stop me from collecting cars though.

[RedReplicant]

Meh.
91 318is and an 06 GSXR750 track/street bike.
