A car needs to go - Which one?

Certainly a first world problem...

I have a daily driver Volkswagen Alltrack, great daily and all around versatile car. It's staying.

I have three others I am very attached to and have owned for many years. They're well sorted and fun to drive. All straight and rust free. But I'm tired of owning four cars and it's time to start trimming down. I have a feeling whatever input I get from the board here I still won't be able to decide:

A 2004 BMW 325i 5 speed with a Sport Package. I've owned since new and it's probably the best all around car I've ever owned. Fun to drive, reliable and easy to work on. Parts are starting to get harder to find (quality parts anyway) and much more expensive. 254,000 miles. It's shocking how reliable this car has been.

A 1995 Porsche 993, six speed manual. I love this car, a wonderful car to drive and value just keeps going up (which makes me drive it less, I used to drive it to work occasionally but not anymore). 117,000 miles.

A 1984 Porsche 3.2 Carrera, Not as in nice a shape as the 993 but a well sorted driver. (lots of rock chips form previous owner) Just spent a crap load reupholstering the sport seats. Much simpler maintenance than the 993, oil changes are a breeze in comparison, classic 911 shape. Also worth a lot more than when I bought it. 114,000 miles.



Sorry for the small images of the P cars. The 325i has more usability and that's probably the best argument to not sell that one.
