I'll give this a shot since my household is close knit. Cars are a bit conservative since my family doesn't give importance to driving as nice of car when they can easily afford it. Frugal background, what can I say?

Dad - 2006 Toyota Sienna
Mom - 2008 Lexus RX350
Brother - 2010 Acura TSX
Me - Ordered 2015 BRZ
Wife - 2013 Toyota 4Runner SR5

Ever since the Juke R and the Nismo one they've definitely grown on me.
That thing looks like an updated Pontiac Aztek.

My other vehicle is a 2000 Jeep XJ Limited. That's my project. We just put a 4.6L Golen stroker in it with header and exhaust, Brown Dog motor mounts and a 3-row fully aluminum radiator. I'm getting ready to put it in the garage to install a cowl intake, vent hoods, a full welded-on frame stiffening kit, a 4.5" long-arm suspension, slip yoke eliminator, 31" tires, HID headlights, a 200 amp Mean Green alternator, a set of battery cables made from single gauge welding wire, front and rear steel bumpers and Bushwacker flat flares. Eventually it'll have a winch, upgraded steering, upgraded axles with lockers, 35" tires, a roof rack with a full 360° scene lighting kit, an onboard air kit (already have the compressor) and, a little further off in the future, a hybrid cage so that if I end up upside down, I can just get some guys to roll me back over. I'm building a capable go-anywhere-the-hell-I-want vehicle in case I need to go somewhere a regular car can't go.

Plus I'm planning to buy a car trailer so that I can use the Jeep to pull the BRZ if I need to bug out in advance of a hurricane.

I have a 2012 Scion xB but my girlfriend is supposed to "buy" it at some point from me. She has a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport that has pretty much become my "inclement weather" driver and she drives the xB as her primary.

MK6 GTI. Have been toying with the idea of picking up an Elise SC, but doubtful.

2014 Nissan GTR. Godzilla lives!


My wife drives a 2014 Acura MDX. She loves it. I bought her a 2013 FR-S Auto, but she said it was too hard to get in and out of. So, I then bought her a 2013 VW GTI, but I made the mistake of having it tuned and lowered. It was big fun for me, but it frightened her, hence the MDX.


Then I went back and got a 2014 FR-S, 6MT just for me. I now have the two toys.


I'm a lucky man.
