I'll play...

'72 914 2.0
'72 911S
'66 Shelby GT 350 (hopefully sold)
'52 MGTD
'66 912 (in pieces)
'74 XJ12L (Chevy 383 conversion)
'92 Isuzu Rodeo (Daily driver)
'00 Yeti ASR mountain bike

Fun toys, but my 56 year old Mom can out run them all in her Audi TT - VERY fun toy.

I really want to buy one of the 250 GT California kit cars built by Precision Design. It is the car featured in Ferris Beuler's Day Off - very cool - or maybe a 550 Spyder kit. They also look like they would be really fun to build. Closest I'll ever be to owning a "new" car!

Oh, sure--I'll chime in.

1974 914 2.0
1990 Honda CRX si


As you can tell, I have a fondness for small, lightweight fun-to-drive two seaters.

The CRX is a pretty nice little car, even if it is a front-driver.

Daily drive is a 2000 Montero Sport. Got my '76 914 back in December after selling my '97 Honda 125 shifter kart. Bought the Porsche for the kart money plus $200. Pretty sweet deal, eh? The 'teener handles alot like the kart but is obviously more practical. I had to tow the kart on a trailer for 3 hours and then pay entry fees to drive short stints on a track.

'72 914 with a '75 1.8 liter
'97 Ninja ZX-9R

And technically I own my teenage sons' cars so add:

'84 Toyota Van
'81 280 ZX

(If I could just get them to pay their own insurance I could afford that restored 914-6!)

campbellcj 06-28-2000 09:26 PM

Short but sweet...
73 914 2.0
70 911E Targa
00 Jeep Grand Cherokee (wife's ride mostly)
Two project cars are more than plenty for now, but hoping for a new daily ride and maybe a new-old project as well in 2001...either a 914/6 or a 72-73 911RS clone are tops on the project list.

'74 914 2.0
'89 Isuzu pick-up

on a side note: i hit a deer with my truck about 8 months ago causing a good sized dent in my bumper, broken grill and a busted light. Its funny cause I'm finding it so hard to bite the bullet and spend a couple hundred to get that fixed, but I'll drop a grand on my 2.0 w/o hesitation. I'm pretty sure my truck is jealous http://www.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/frown.gif
