In order of "perfect driving day" to "winter blows":
the '68
the '84
2000 Nissan Maxima SE
2008 Subaru Forester (assumes my wife is either out of town or has the day off...she has first dibs on the Subi--actually, the Alfa is her "perfect day" car. For anyone who thinks old Porsches have flakey electronics and German logic is sometimes illogical, try an Alfa!)

964 everytime; no other cars. Could do with an estate ( station wagon ) sometimes, but it gives me an excuse to not do DIY and trips to the store for supplies

Not worried about mileage or wear on the 911, but I still preseve the car as if it were a garage queen. In 20 years time, I hope to still be driving it and that it still looks as good as it does now.

In the summer it's the 86 Carrera but that just won't cut it up here in the winter time. That's where the 90 Audi Coupe Quattro come's in.

No pictures? That sports car in your avatar isn't a 930.

I do see that Porsche made 10,004 Turbo 3.3 coupes from 1978-1985.

Good Choice Targacoupe

My Current Daily is a 94 Audi S4, perfect for a DD lots of room and power 280hp (with the chip), plus it gets decent highway milage.

Previously i drove the 911 and before that i had a 2001 325xi

I'm also in the Mr. Mom category (when not at work) and have a 20 month old and a one week old so I drive an 04 Expedition which is also my tow vehicle. The 911 is basically a track car so I drive it about once a week for fun and to keep the battery charged. I couldn't drive it daily even if I wanted to but I look forward to my weekly or sometimes every other week drives.
