Who here has more than one summer car?

natedog7700 · 07-07-2019, 04:26 PM

Excluding a basic DD for work, does anyone have 2 or 3 sport cars + the daily? What do you got?

kscarrol · 07-07-2019, 04:28 PM

Well not sure what your definition of a sports car is but the '11 M3 sedan is my daily plus I have a '97 Z3 2.8 and a '74 2002 tii

NorthCountryGuy · 07-07-2019, 04:38 PM

I do.

wdb · 07-07-2019, 04:43 PM

Me too.

dinonz · 07-07-2019, 05:04 PM

I have my '16 M3 (my daily) and a Ferrari 328.

upstatedoc · 07-07-2019, 06:14 PM

What happened to your F80 M3?

dinonz · 07-08-2019, 08:44 AM

You asking me?

I don't daily my 'summer sports car', but I do drive it weekly. Usually on Friday's I will take it to work - sometimes more often if the weather is nice. I try to avoid driving it in the rain.

We have 4 cars total. Not sure if any are considered 'summer cars', though.

3798j · 07-08-2019, 08:05 PM

My two weaknesses...sports cars and the old car hobby. I've got five.

Housekeeping · 07-08-2019, 09:02 PM

I daily a 2017 2500 RAM pickup, my sports cars include a Z06 Corvette, f10 M5, e39 M5 and an E55 AMG. Share time between all but truck get most miles, especially with all the rain as of late.

Darth One · 07-08-2019, 09:08 PM

In Florida, i don’t think we have ‘summer’ cars because we don’t have winters that the summer cars are put into hibernation for.

But let’s say daily drivers vs. weekend/special occasion/leisure drivers? My family has 3 daily drivers, and i have 4 of the second category

Daily drivers:
Macan GTS
M4 GTS
Mini Cooper JCW GP (R56)

Not daily drivers:
E46 M3
911 GT3
GT4
McLaren 570s

mojobmw_e90 · 07-08-2019, 09:27 PM

I have my e90 335i with upgraded turbos and all the fun stuff for a weekend car, but daily a 00 turbo civic. Manual trans with coilovers and it's a blast to drive. Sure isn't the fastest, but 300hp in that thing is super fun

JDC PDX · 07-08-2019, 11:02 PM

I've got three "summer" cars.

675 LT Spider
GT3 RS
993 RWB

M5 Competition is my daily.

Humdizzle · 07-09-2019, 12:15 PM

458 Italia
F80 6MT

'09 civic for a daily driver
My work is a 30 minute drive each way (45 miles)

Driving the 458 must feel so awesome after driving the Civic all week

DanG · 07-10-2019, 01:40 PM

An M2 is my only car. It is so great that I don’t need any other cars.

DPelletier · 07-10-2019, 01:45 PM

I had the F type and SLK350 at the same time but they didn't get used enough so I sold them both when I bought the Z4. Now down to two DD's, one sportscar and two motorcycles.

I have an electric commuter, my track/weekend M3 CS, my family SUV, and a spare econobox Honda Civic for general purpose. I'd love to trade my Civic for something like a track prepped Miata, but too many family members use it and a stripped Miata with a cage and harness isn't as practical as a Civic.

i'll still drive the 458 or m3 2-3 times a week. The civic is just there to keep miles off both cars. As soon as I get home at 6pm it stays parked and the other cars are used.

And it doesn't hurt that during the rainy days I don't have to take the M3 out and get it dirty.

If I worked close to home i'd sell the civic.
400 miles a week on the m3 adds up quick: depreciation, rock chips, gas cost (93 octane vs 87), insurance, etc.

eluded · 07-10-2019, 05:20 PM

Every day is summer where I live. We don't really have seasons so you have to have a lot of fun cars :-)
