i dont have a fun car at the moment.

i do have a fun motorcycle. i miss having a car.

i am 99% sure my next project will be a 4x4. FJ40 or early Bronco.

Currently daily drive a triple black 2004 Mustang GT convertible which has a few mods, and 4.10 gears....lots of fun instantly. A guy is coming this weekend to polish/restore the paint on my white 944, which I will probably be placing on BAT (I like my convertible more). There were a couple of years where I drove my daughter's Saturn Sedan....I have decided that life is too short to drive boring sedans.

The bulk of my "fun car" budget is allocated to gutted and caged vehicles since I started wheel-to-wheel racing. I currently own 2.5 race cars, and 4 street cars. My truck is the only pricey street legal vehicle, the other 3 are older Mercedes.

I don't miss the 997 Turbo at all. There are moments where I miss the 930, and I do think about having an aircooled street toy again, but I am racing 1.5 aircooled cars so I get my fix on the track.

How often do you drive the 356?

This is a funny topic because I have been thinking about getting rid of everything but the 930. I don't drive the Mustang and am going to give it to my son. And I have a 74 911 I bought to make into a light weight Autocross/ Track Day / Hot Rod.
But as the OP posted; I too am thinking of getting rid of some "Things" and going simpler. The 930 checks off so many boxes in one package I think I can be happy with it as my only toy.

that is a smoking deal around my parts. i am focusing on older. i want to stay older than 1975 so i dont ever have to worry about smog test

here are two near me. my wife's spidey senses must be firing!! she wont answer my phone calls!!

I’m almost ready to sell the 1975 hotrod 911 widebody as I haven’t driven it much. So technically, yes, but...I’m going to the dark side and buying a hotrod 1961 Corvette.

Please don’t throw things, you are far more civilized than that!

We have a 2013 Nissan Rogue that is so not fun it sucks the fun out of driving the Cobra replica and the XT600 bike combined. It has as much fun about it as Rodney Dangerfield had respect. If fun were measured by temperature it would be sitting at near 0* kelvin.

Our old 1996 GMC Jimmy 4WD favorite to park anywhere,
but least favorite to drive.
No road feel and excessive weight transfer, would fail the moose test.

After years of leasing crappy little cars for my wife (she sees cars as appliances), I finally decided that ALL of our cars must be fun in some way. So her current leased ride is a 2017 VW Golf Sportwagen. The thing is very nice to drive, the turbo motor is a hoot, and it has nearly the utility of a pickup truck. This one we'll purchase when the lease is up.

I find myself looking at early 90s Toyota 4Runners from time to time. I had a '92 for awhile, and it was a nice rig. A great around utility vehicle, and lots of fun to drive, as long as I wasn't dragging along something too heavy. Sold it because I needed a longer wheelbase and more power to tow race cars.

I haven't driven in over a year.

I've had times with no fun car(s) and according to my wife I'm unpleasant when that's the case. I've also had times with too many fun cars, and frankly hard as it might be to believe, that's not much better in terms of juggling maintenance, bills, parking, etc...

I've found the right balance (for me) to be at minimum a fairly fun modern car and definitely a fun classic, and that's it... Anymore is too much for me to juggle and truly enjoy. But life is too short to drive an appliance, and we might see anti-driving anti-non-smart-car legislation in the not so distant future, so I'd keep a fun car at all times just so that there's no regrets later...

Sorry to hear. May I ask why?

I have 2 fun cars, neither being driven at the moment but I'm continuously looking for an old Toyota 4x4

Would love to buy one in the USA, do a driving tour and ship it back to the UK

Good FJ40's in Europe are too pricey for me and ones I can afford are another project I don't need but I am very taken by a Gen 1 Toyota 4Runner

Been watching this one not sell for a year now, if its still not sold by August I'm going to view it

i think this is a excellent idea!!

Please post pics so I can be properly jealous..

My buddy just lost his. We returned from a Canadian fly in trip to find that his under house garage had flooded with over 27" of water. His GLA 250 had already been totaled by ins. and towed. His '86 911 Turbo look was externally covered with silt. I opened the driver's door and saw silt halfway up the seat back. He was absolutely crestfallen. Hagerty visited yesterday to finalize total stuff and agreed value payment. He has sworn off toy cars for now.
Really sucks big time.

That is exactly the way I do it. I fell into a good deal on an 82 Targa so I am prepping the Mercedes for sale. It was been a very enjoyable weekender, beer run car but I limit myself to one funster only.

I haven't even taken the Targa off the trailer and probably won't until the Mercedes is gone.

That's a good approach. I loved both the 911 and RX7 and miss them both, but in many ways they were as much a burden as they were a blessing. I don't do half-assed, and with two toys in addition to an F150, Ford Flex, the S8, and a boat, I always had pending projects. Just keeping five cars cleaned can be a lot at times. My current thought process is to sell the S8 after wrapping up a few loose ends and buy a Miata. I'd like to take a step back and just have cars that I clean and drive, my project time is sadly limited right now.
