If you not have 8 cars worth 20 000$ in total ur argument is invalid. tséveuxdire
edit : post car list
Well, It's not about money for me it's about what makes me happy.
I grew up with odd ball cars and I love having things that you don't see often or that people don't know about.
Our current car list is the following:
1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (Project car, It was my first car and I've owned it for 19 years, it's been undergoing a frame off restoration with a 3800SC engine swap for the past 10 years. I just don't have much time to finish it unfortunately with work and the home renovations etc)
1986 Pontiac Fiero SE. All original with 31,000km. 3rd owner, show winner, still has OEM tires from 1986. Appraised at $14,000. Garage queen.
1987 Pontiac Fiero Sport Coupe. I picked this up for cheap 5 years ago and brought it back to life after it was parked for 5 years. I'm going to sell it in the spring. Appraised at $4k. Really nothing special.
2009.5 Pontiac G8 GXP. 6.2L V8 LS3. Production number 507 of 1829. One of 846 with a Manual 6 speed transmission, one of 77 in current configuration. Re-appraised last year at $30,000 and insured by Hagerty insurance.
2019 370Z Sport Edition paid 34k + tax this summer
2004 Toyota Matrix XRS 6 Speed manual
Other 2 cars
1990 Nissan 300ZX 2 seater, manual, 80,000km (I found it for my G/F after she asked for a summer car, she paid for it)
2016 Subaru WRX STI (Technically under my name but my G/F took over the payments when her previous car died and then I bought the 370Z)
So yeah nothing crazy but I'm happy. I own a few cars that aren't worth much to a lot of people but I really don't care. If I cared what people thought about me I'd drive a BMW/Audi/Benz or something that gives common folks a sense of prestige or status. I like to work on my cars and I like to connect with my cars. If I don't enjoy being behind the wheel of a certain car or I don't feel a connection I don't keep the car for very long.
