What would you pick as a second car?
I was daydreaming today about potential second car to complement my FRS. Then I wondered what everyone else in the forum would pick as a second car. Here's some of my potential choices:
1. Nissan GT-R (because what else could be more different than the FRS?) 2. Lotus Elise SC (a more extreme version of the FRS? +mid-engine, removable soft-top, exotic looks to turn heads, and I suppose Toyota reliability because of its engine) 3. Mark IV Toyota Supra TT (to fulfill childhood dreams) |

Toyota Tacoma, four door, 4x4.
I love my car, but it's not efficient at hauling lumber or picking up a couch. |

We have a chevy trailblazer and a motorcycle.
Motorcycle for commuting(13k in last 4 months) Trailblazer for SUV duty-moving, camping, taking dogs places But, if you have no need for an SUV/Truck, go for something sporty I guess |

Fantasy or reality?
In my dreams, I'd have a high end comfortable land missile like an M5 or Jag XJR as a daily Realistically, I love having my beater Mk3 Jetta for driving in the city and giving zero shits about door dings. |

Tacoma, 4Runner, or Landcruiser. (Maybe a diesel Canyon/Colorado depending on how the reviews of them come out)
A truck or SUV is definitely the most complementary vehicle for a sports car, because then you have all areas of life covered!

I would like a Tacoma or a mid size SUV for a secondary vehicle...FRS is a blast to drive daily but it would be nice to have extra space and an automatic tranny sometimes for traffic..lol

Land Cruiser if gas mileage is an afterthought. Tesla Model X if you can recharge it.
Both are comfortable, have presence without being too flashy (I'm looking at you Range Rover) and can haul your shizz quietly and capably.

If you need something more practical, an SUV/truck or wagon/hatch would be great.
If you don't need something more practical, then I'd go with an Exige/Elise or Alfa 4c.
