    Default too many cars

    so im sure most of you are like myself, you went from one car.. to another... and kept going.

    i got a ford ranger when i was 16, sold that, bought an s14. ive been reselling s14's for awhile, then got an s13 and decided "ill keep it" well that failed me and got an itch for something smaller. so i got a miata, JIC coilovers, wheels,and thats it. as most of you have ive also downed the miata as a car. but this thing is alot of fun! but now im back to the stage again, that i want another s14 or sc300. gah dang, i wish i could make up my mind!!!

    I was just seeing if im just weird or not for switching vehicles haha. most of my friends have owned the same vehicle for over a year, but ive never owned a vehicle for more than 43 days.

    i need to step my game up, i want an r32 gtr really bad now.
    but i also want an m3

    and lord knows, i dont need ANYTHING fast.
    and now that it hink of it, i want another deisel truck really bad.

    I've gone from a 2g to a tC to a 3G and regret the first two and don't really like this one. But i'm stuck with it till it blows up or something catastrophic happens. Next car I get before I get out of college will be a 2G GSX. Then i'll save up and buy a Supra and that's a few years from now never no what the automakers will come up with between now and then.

    Just get the kit that allows you to put a Ford 5.0 in your Miata. That will cure the itch.

    haha yeah i bet! ive considered it, but it would be killing the miata handling. ive never owned something that i could toss thru back roads, and it be so much fun! my 240's got boring really quick.

    I've owned so many cars in my 29 years...I've also owned at least two cars at a time.

    91 Nissan 300 zx TT.
    Volvo 850
    Mustang GT 5.0
    Mustang Cobra.
    Honda Civic four door.
    Honda Accord v6 with Greddy turbo kit.
    Honda Civic four door.
    Nissan Xterra.
    Honda Civic hatchback.
    Nissan Maxima.
    Acura Integra.
    Mazda 3 five door.
    Honda Civic hatchback.
    Volkswagen GTI 1.8T
    Audi A4 1.8T
    Acura TL Type S
    Infiniti G35 Coupe.
    Land Rover Discovery
    Land Rover Freelander.
    BMW Z4 3.0 Supercharged.

    I'm looking for my next project but I'm not sure that I want to dump anymore money into another car. Perhaps the next car that I purchase I'll just dump it with some wheels and then call it a day.

    I had an R32, and recently sold my R33. My opinion is just get something not so expensive, with everyone in the states wanting top dollar for those cars. They are overrated. But you'll have to find out for yourself. I did.

    I feel ya man. I've been driving for 6 years and have gone through 7 cars.

    When I was 16 I got my 240SX. Wrecked it and at 17 I traded it for my Sentra SE-R Spec-V. Then it got wrecked and I got my first NA Miata. Got tired of it and traded it for my Mazdaspeed Miata. Drifted it, had lots of fun, then traded it for the Yaris. While I still had the Yaris, I had my 280Z w/ RB20DET and drifted it. Got tired of paying for drifting so I sold the 280Z then I traded my Yaris for my new Mustang.

    Lets see:

    1987 Toyota Pickup (Lifted, Locked, 35's, etc): Drove for 7 months, been a project ever since... soon to be back up and running with Marlin Tcase gears, fairly hot 22R, and some other small things.
    1977 Ford F150 Custom: Bought it to drive while the Toyota was down, drove it daily for 2 months, now I need to sell it.
    1987 Ford F150: Bought this after I got tired of the 77, put 2" coils up front, Add-A-Leaf in the rear, 32x11.50's, straight pipes, and beat on it ever since... bought it with 170,000 now has 496,000 on it. Still DD this in bad weather.
    2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1: Early graduation present, owned it for 11 months, put 16,000 miles on it... Alot of money went into it... Now its in a junkyard somewhere :-(
    2000 Toyota Tacoma SR5: Grandpa bought new in 2000, I drove it when I wasnt in the Mach.
    1989 Civic Si: GSR swap, etc. Bought it on here cheap, been doing a little to it ever since. Have put maybe 350-400 miles on it since I bought it the first week of February.

    Thats most of them, there were 2 or 3 I bought, and never drove just resold them.
