So let's hear about and see your cars.

Out with the 911 4S Cab and in with another 300zx Twin Turbo. Only 73k miles and is described as "OEM+" due to all the improvements. Nothing crazy but really keeps the essence of the stock car. Lots of small things should get about 80bhp jump over stock. Yes, I'd much prefer black but just couldn't turn this one down. It's being shipped from WI and should be at my place in a few days.

This Cadillac XLR V caught my eye. The "V" is the important letter. They only built about 2,000 total over 3 years. This is the last year they built them. It should continue to appreciate.

A friend had this exact car. He loved it until the top started failing and got stuck half way up. Had to have the car flatbed home ~200 miles. Sold it the very next week as is. Super cool car though.

I tried the BAT thing a few times but really don't like the process. Always turns into a bidding war the last 2 minutes and then the 5% on top just turns me off. Actually found this one on one of the facebook Z groups. Posted that I'm looking for a nice Z and a guy reached out. So far so good. I've found whether stereo stuff, cars, boats, music equipment, etc., that if you can buy from a fellow enthusiast it's so much better.
 
Didn't expect this to happen but as of this afternoon we are officially a 2 Tesla Model Y family. Bought one for my wife in late July and it's just honestly a game changer. She has the 23 white/white Model Y Performance and I just drove home with a black/black 23 Model Y Performance.

You look a lot younger than I thought you would.... :cool:
 
Finally replaced my wife's Lexus - 2006 RX330 w/160k miles. Sold it to a friend that also bough my other Lexus ES330. I am sure both cars will run many more miles, but it was time for the wife to get a new(er) car. For the last 20yrs we have driven Lexus's and Volvo's and have put hundrests of 1000's of miles on both with little issues.
This time we got her a Volvo XC60 - 2021 w/19k miles.
I got a Cobalt R5 last year, so I am resolved to driving my Lexus LS430 for awhile longer.

Curious how you see the Tesla is a game changer?
 
This is my current project, not my car, but an exact looking one. My car was keyed one night when it was in a public parking garage (outdoor) and I lost interest after that. But now some 10years later I am going to restore it and make it like new again. I have already started and have ordered a completely new interior. That is going in after I finish the suspension.

This car reminds me of the Rush song Red Borchetta, as I used to drive this when that song came out. Funny how the lyrics are not that far off from what's going on today ...

Have always LOVED the TR6's but only sat in one once.

Sorry about being keyed. That's sickening. I live in fear of same a-hole doing that to one of my cars when they're out. I don't drive like a douche but that doesn't mean some loser doesn't take offense anyway.

I am sorry, if they paid me $100k a year I would not have an EV. There is something under foot as far as I am concerned. Why is it so important for our beloved President to put us in EVs. These vehicles as we know them are doing more damage to the planet than my gas guzzling Suburban. So why the push.

It's not a true ev. It has a V-6, 27 gallon gas tank and can go 690 miles on that tank of gas. Around town it will run like an EV. I think it's brilliant. Tool around town electruc(I do that with my golf cart out by the marina) and then load it up and run straight through to Florida with 1 gas stop. Best of both world's in my opinion.
 
Just picked this up for my wife yesterday. 2024 BMW X5 M-Sport.

After 10 years in her current 535i it was time to move her into this decade. Hopefully won't need to do it again for another 10.

My ‘86 Carrera Cabriolet -black w/champagne interior. Quite quick little beast. My 944 handled and shifted better and was actually more fun to drive in many ways but this is fastest car I’ve driven. They didn’t nickname them widowmakers for nothing

Yeah, the car was in another state when this happened, no one new me or the car. They didn't miss one fender or panel, even sliced the top and seats.
