GX = high, smooth and quiet
This one = low, loud and raw

Probably closest thing to performance in my garage is my 2007 Infiniti G35x (AWD) sedan I bought new. Just turned 100K miles. Car and Driver in the day beat 0-60 in 5.4 out of it.. I guess slow by todays performance car standards. Other rigs... '00 Wrangler TJ and '15 CX-5 AWD

Its been a few years since I've even driven it, but my Silvia converted 240sx checks the box for when I want to act like a delinquent. These photos are from 2013/14 when I used to attend amatuer drift nights at the track. Less stickers, but more or less looks the same in Dec 2019.




My 1999 LS400 was my daily driver from 2013-2017. I kept it minty stock until it was retired into a weekend cruiser - coilovers, wheels, and roll center adjusters are the only mods.


This is the vehicle that retired the LS400 from daily duties. It is also the vehicle that I upgraded from when I purchased my 2016 GX. There is a big part of me that misses how careless I could be with this old 4Runner in terms of parking, traffic, and off-roading. It was 23 years old when I sold it, with plenty of door dings, scratches, and dents to where I probably didn't notice any new ones when they appeared, but still looked good from a few feet away!
The GX, I park in the back of the lot, and will not be so aggressive with it out in the wilderness.

Before getting the wife's 2014 LS460 and my 2019 GX460, a 2017 Chevy (Holden)SS was my daily. It was fun, a bit too much fun, and I figured I'd better sell it before I lost my license. With an LS3, a very tough car to drive in a sane manner. Since they stopped making them, and I bought it for 20% under MSRP, I pretty much sold it used with 20k miles for what I had paid for it... Glad to be up in the GX now and driving at a bit more leisurely pace!

Love the e30 vert. I had one a few years ago. Not nearly as clean as your but loved that thing. Probably one of my favorite cars to work on for some odd reason. I rebuilt the entire top end and it was just a blast to drive around. Even my wife wanted to drive it.

Here's my junk

I have done the 2 car thing before and it never really worked out. If I had the room to store something that I rarely drive and it appreciates in value then Hey, win-win.
