Thanks for the detailed response!

I enjoy the sight of the cars so much more if there is little else to detract from them.
Ha! Same for me. Our 2-car garage has 2 cars, pairs of shoes along one wall and pictures. Very clean.

The single car garage has a single car, lawn mower, yard tools, my tools, well, I could list things for an hour but I think everyone gets the point.

DD = BMW M235i X drive. Fun car. Far less raw and way more docile than my C2S, neither of which is good nor bad. Its great to have alternatives!

Toyota FJ, BMW Z3, Volvo XC60 and of course the C4S. Covers most bases right now.

2015 BMW X5 50i.

Steers like a pig and rides like a mattress mounted on marshmallows on top of a batsh*t crazy twin turbo 400+HP V8.

Basically, the perfect long-distance commuter (I generally spend 2+ hours per day in the car).

New to Porsche. Just bought a MY2008 911 C2S Cabriolet, Ruby Red with Sand Beige interior.

I have been a BMW nerd for a while. Still have a MY2015 BMW M4 Yas Marina Blue with Coral Red Interior as a DD. I had not noticed how large the 3 Series have gotten until I bought the Porsche. The M4 feels like a GT Cruiser in contrast.

I also have a mint condition MY2005 BMW 330i with the ZHP Package. Not the fastest car, but I love driving it. Something about older cars in mint condition.

The Porsche though, is on another level of enjoyment. I am going to be here for a while. Love German automobiles.
