1985 Honda VF100R.
1981 Trans AM Turbo. (looked so much faster than it was)
1986 300ZX NA black (not fast)
1986 300ZX Turbo gray (faster than the na)
1986 300ZX Turbo red (Pretty fast, had boost control etc)
1999 Ski-Doo mxz600 (Sleds are so damn much fun, so stinking fast.)

Then about a 10 year gap because kids.

Now just the TJ.
 
'84 C-4 Corvette, stock base model. Cheap fun.
'72 V-8 Vega. Stupid fun.
'73 Chey K20 Cheyenne Super. That was a fun, working son of a gun.

Edited to add: 1968 Camargo Z-28. RPO DZ

I love those vegas.
Sort of like a Monza with a 350. Only more cool.

I built that one. 400 small block, th350 trans, goofy conversion kit. One pass down the quarter mile and you had to pull the door handle then kick the door open. They weren't very rigid, but they were very quick.

Since I'm retired now, I've been having fun on my Zuma.
I bought it for $150.00 with intension of repairing and selling, but it's too much fun. 50cc two stroke does wheelies.

I've always wanted a 2004 Evo and/or S2000 and I've always been curious about Miatas!
Also, I'm itching to get another 300ZX.

Another 999 fan! Did you see my 999R in the other thread?
 
Let's see:
1972 Nova with a built 396 & TH350
1966 GTO with a mildly built 400 & M21
1969 Nova with a mildly built 350 and TH350
1957 Chevy tubbed, Dana 60, big block, sadly never finished, I get bored with stuff :D
Me and my buds were all into hot rods in HS and shortly thereafter

Had a couple bikes:
1996 YZF600
2002 GSXR750
Did several track days between the two bikes. That is a blast. On a real race track, no A hole cagers trying to kill you, fast as you can go.

For you Z car lovers, I worked at a Nissan dealership for a short time in 91 and the twin turbo 300 was all the rage. Once in a while a batt would die so we would take a jumper out to get it running. Well, we also had to take it for a quick spin, you know, to get the battery all charged up. Those things hauled some ass, from what I hear :D

1965 Triumph TR-4: Best date car ever. Even I could score when I was driving this car.
1963 International Scout: Slow, ugly and noisy, but it would climb a tree if I pointed it at one. My "Let's go to the lake/beach" truck.
