Default What other toys do you have?

I know this has been brought up before of what’s in the garage.
So what other cars do you have hanging around that are more just for fun to drive.
I have still one fun car that I thought was fast at one time but the Porsche changed that.
My back up toy for being foolish in is an 87 5liter notch back.

I like to keep one of these around... just in case. Also it reminds me my knees used to work well.

Yeah I thought my tuned Volvo 850 Turbo was quick I also have 2009 GSXR 1000 and a 2003 GSXR 600 which I thought were fast too I think the TT is as quick as my 1000 on the take off and has a higher top end limit.

Probably not going to happen. I've turned a corner on crazy power street cars. These days i'm way more relaxed in a nomex suit pushing the limits on a roadcourse. Driving fast on the street kinda lost its appeal to me.

I did the same thing with my BlackBird - in fact, I matched the paint in the living room to match the grey of the bike - looks good.

Other toys -
