Thanks for all the replies and comments. They were exactly what I needed to defrag my brain and get some brain cells lined up for clear thinking. Believe me when I say, this isn't he first time I have gone through this drill and the few times I have downsized to two cars, it wasn't long before I was back to four or five cars. So I will keep and drive what I have. I bought them all for a reason and they are sitting there ready to go when I am.

Glad you came back to your senses. Remember for the next time, the only solution is to add one fast car. Welcome back.

If you do ever feel the urge to get rid of the VWs, bring 'em over to the West Coast. They have cult status here and go for way too much money.

BTW, I don't think you have "too many" cars. Seems reasonable.
Heck, I'd even argue you should find room for a full-size truck, they are incredibly useful. My neighbor had an FJ, loved it, but always needed to use a trailer with it to get any chores around the property done.

I have six cars, including two 370Z (2018 Stick and 2019 Auto) a 2017 MX-5 (wife) and I do not regret it.

You always need a truck.... I am a car hoarder myself.

Where I live at. If you have 2 vehicles. One has to be a 4x4 truck. I got 2, 4x4's.

We have a few things in common...

2019 Camaro ZL1 M6, 650hp, 650 ft/lbs Crush
2020 Nissan 370Z Nismo 6spd Pear White

Have 3 more, but most notably a 53 Meteor. True survivor my Grandfather purchased new.

Definitely keep the 370 and the Camaro. Then look for a Merc of your own too!:icon17:

Never downsize! Add something else fast and red instead.

I drove over to Temecula CA to buy the 59 single cab and drive it back to Sierra Vista AZ, southeast of Tucson. You are right, they go for way too much money. I did have a few Tacomas this past year but always found the bed to be too small, so I'd use the VW single cab truck.

Ive been thinking about a full size truck that is older. I should have never gotten ride of my 1994 Chevy V8 fullsize bed years ago. Didn't drive that much either but when I needed a real truck, I had it. Thanks for the suggestion.

I was just looking at the 2003 Z4 3.0i last night. Another one of my favorite cars that I sold a few years ago. I may pick one of those up. Guess I would need to rent some storage for that.

Thought about buying the ZL1 this past summer instead of the 2SS ... talked myself out of it because I would not be doing any track racing ... how stupid is that. :rofl2:

Beautiful collection. Is that a dark silver Camry TRD I see on the right side in your garage. If so I bought one new last spring and then traded it a few months later for the 370z because it wasn't fast enough.

Thank you for the nice comments. Yes it is a TRD Silver. Its not a fast car but it capable of doing its job as a daily driver to work and it does get quite a few compliments when I drive it.

Definitely the Z is a faster and fun car to drive. How much did you trade the TRD?
