When I was still working ,often I had to travel , so I bought some cars that were so called " work  " cars.

I generally liked to have sporty cars when I could afford them .

Moniker: alphonse

[cokey]

Yea I knw lol.. cool, I'm on the same name as this one.. tough deciding wether try n get a duc 1st or an exiege in the near future...

[abrussich]

I'll probally be roasted for this but I'd get the Exige first.
Either way is good, just a matter of where your priorities lie.

1976 Ford Mustang II - Baby blue with a dark blue toneau cover top. 2.3L w/ auto. If I hit the accelerator in 1989 I would hit 60 earlier this week.

1980 Mercury Bobcat - Bought in 1992 since the previous car was less than reliable. Same 2.3, but with a 4-speed. Slow, but fun on slick roads. Brown on brown car that I was told, "was a big part of my sex appeal"

1999 Mercury Cougar - Green w/black interior. First real job, first new car. 2.5L V6 with 5-speed. Sort of fun until the connecting rod broke at 50K miles. Never again.

2003 Honda Accord Coupe - 3.0L V6 240HP w/ 6-sp. Great car. Fast, black, stealthy, and fun. I'd buy another one.

2009 Chevrolet Corvette - Black on Black. What can I say, the lure of 436HP, a 6-speed manual, and a willing (re: desperate) dealer meant my midlife crisis got quenched with America's most iconic sportscar.  It's a great daily driver too.

'65 VW Beetle (family hand-me-down)
'80 Honda Accord hatch-back (ultimate POS that pops bought for me with my money)
'67 VW Beetle (used)
'72 VW Beetle (used)
'88 Isuzu Trooper (used)
'00 VW GTI VR6 (new, still own)
'85 VW Golf rhd (used)
'05 330 ZHP (new -- car lost its mind)
'07 S2000 (new)

Probably letting the S2000 and GTI go in the near future and replacing them with a new GTI.  Either that or a Jeep.

I'm lookin at midlife crisis cars too.  A gently used C6 Z51 or a C5 Z06 are on my shopping list.

You have a Ferrari Fxx and the Toyota is your favorite?  

Kind of a step up from the K cars...

the Ferrari was sort of bland compared to the Toyota...come on Toyota made the MR2!

I just ordered a new GTI this morning... it's replacing my 2004 Jetta GLI. Have you driven the Mark VI? You won't be disappointed.

Bastards. 

I've toyed with reshuffling the stable and buying a '07-'09 Shelby GT500, but now I'm considering tweaking the living bejeezus out of the suspension and drivetrain (twin turbo, anyone?) of my '96 Mustang GT instead.
