Default Hi, I'm Brian and I'm a car nut-o-holic.

So i get to looking through the cars i owned last year..... count them.

Here's what i had last year.

here are my 2 e36's:

I am leaving out 2 ford rangers, a black mercedes 3 series (showed it to you all here middle of last year), and a few other cars i can't remember. Most of these pics were taken within 20 feet of each other, so the driveway, or the tree or something is always the same. most are taken with the other cars, look at all the photo's and you'll see each car with two others, then in another photo you'll see another car with two of the one's in that photo. So they were all here at the same time.


I never realized how many cars JUST LAST YEAR i had until i looked through them all. Why didn't someone tell me? I LOVE cars. I want 2 of everything, but if i don't watch out, i'll end up with it.

I am down to 2 E36's and my SC400. The next time i say "i think i'll go look at ......" someone just smack me, ok? I p*ssed away about $80,000.00 or more last year on cars. I could have had a downpayment on a house my wife wants to build.

Tell me i'm not alone here. I feel like a schmuck for buying all that crap after looking back. I can't help myself, i'm a car nut-o-holic.

i want to buy an old audi quattro coupe, just to play with the quattro when it rains or snows, lol

too bad i dont have 5k to spend on one... people would always ask me why i bought something like an 1985 car if i have my a4.... but i want quattro, and a car i dont have to worry about sliding around

Man, I'm impressed by your Bimmer collection--an E34, an E30, and two E36's. I nearly bought an E34 525i (1995, Orient Blue) instead of the ES back in '02, but it was at a local BMW dealership that didn't want to budge on price. I forgot all about that car until I saw this thread...

I have always loved those cars (E34) just a classic classy shape, still looks sharp now! I learned to drive on a brand new 1995 525, so they will always have a spot in my heart!

OLT, you ARE a car nut!! Most of us look and learn about other cars, you go buy them LOL. You should get another lex and have 2 Lexi and 2 BMWs and call it a day. Maybe a ES3 or SC3, then you could go crazy with mods on the SC4, 20s, coils, ICE, the works man

my next lexus might be an ES since they are inexpensive, but i will most likely not get the es and hold out for my LS i have been wanting. i plan on going shopping sometime before march. (the SC has a home forever)
