I'll only list two.. 99 cherokee sport 2012 gtr black edition sold for a new z06 I ordered last week :-) Hope it rocks the gtr hands down is the best car I've ever driven and I've driven almost everything besides a bugatti and the super high end ferraris like Enzo and f40/50 it simply destroys everything. I drag raced it tracked it and drove it to all events. I did 32 passes at the 1/2 mile shootout last year all over 160 mph no failures and drove it home.
Got any 1/4 mile times? Never seen a GTR at any of my local strips.

My only car I personally owned before my 95 2 door xj was a 79 trans am.
It has quite the story behind it, I got it free when I was 15 as a rolling chassis from a family member, it was mint and needed nothing aesthetically. I never liked the look of post 77 birds but it was free so I figured what the hell. I dropped a 396 big block in it, and after all the goodies she made a little over 450 horse to the wheels, which was a lot for me when I was 17. I drove it for 2 years, blew up the trans and went to college. Now while I was hours away at school with no vehicle my mother ( who hated the "guido" car as she called it), called me and said it was leaking fluid in the garage and stinking up the house. I had no means of getting back to do anything about it so it never crossed my mind. I got a call a week later and she told me she called the auto wrecker to come scrap it as it was taking up space. I got on a train right away lol and freaked out. Called the scrappers and they told me they sold it, I assume they ripped it up for parts as the drivetrain was worth 5x the body and I still had the title.
Now I have my xj, which I love, but I cant forget the T/A. Family joke now is that my mom owes me a firebird, hopefully she comes through one day haha!

12 vehicles is a little much. But my Firebird and XJ are all I need right now. Even though I want a 5.2 Grand Cherokee or another Wrangler. Or maybe a 2 door XJ... Maybe a J10 or Jeepster... Possibly a Commander... Or an FC-170.

In order:
1995 Ford escort: First car. Loved that car but sold it like a retard so I could get the XJ
1993/4 XJ sport 2WD: My grandfather worked at Jeep and bought it in Nov of 93 so it had a 93 leftover engine in a 94 body(PITA when it came to buying parts.) I spun out in a bad snowstorm in 09 and ended up in a ditch with a snapped axle on its side. That old I6 with 250k kept running even on its side and kept me and my then gf warm in -20 weather until the hook arrived. I didn't have the money to fix her so I donated her to Charity motors. (two years later I saw my XJ on the road, someone fixed the axle and it felt good to see her still on the road)
2000 Ford focus POS: I only got it because I needed to get to work and the guy across the street from me was selling it for cheap. It was nothing but grief for the five years I drove it.
Current:
1994 XJ Sport 4X4 "The Rebirth": I found it in AZ and had it shipped up to Michigan and promptly sold the Focus. 177k on a 231TK which once it warms up I will be starting a build thread on. Its identical to my first except for it has 4WD.
2008 Suxuki C50T "Suzi": Originally my father's, I bought it off him and its the only foreign Vehicle I own. I love how it looks like a Harley but costs 10k less and is more reliable
1942 Cadillac Series 75 limo "Elinor": I work restoring classic cars and hopped at the chance to get this. they only made 180 of this model and mine is no.51 and the only one ordered from the factory with red rims. I was deeply honored to be able to drive the actress Rita Moreno in it for a showing of "west side story." She is original but showing her age so a partial resto is in the works.
Yes that's me helping her out
