What's your ideal "his and hers" garage?

I was sitting behind a 991 today in traffic and a thought popped in my head. It would be badass if I drove a Porsche 911 GT3 and the future Mrs. AM3R drove a Cayenne GTS!

On a smaller (read: affordable) scale an E90 M3 would be a great companion to a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

As long Mrs aya and i already agreed on 2 car garage, Mercedes E63 Wagon and Porsche 356. I already got the Porsche, now only need the E63

And oh, your screen name actually is her initial. Coincidence!

This is obviously the only answer.

That's a nice garage! Any pictures of the 356? Sound sweet.

Hah! Amer is actually my first name.

Your proposal suggest sexism. SUV? Hell nah. Real life example, I own a speed3 and wife is saving up for a fiesta. Dream setup is my Speed3 and Protege5.....then convince her to buy a Fiesta ST so I can do time attack trials on our road with the whole fleet.

Great choice. Get them in a matching color and it would be kickass.

Not really intended to. I'd like to have kids down the road. SUV's make traveling with the kiddos easier and the all weather capability is great too. Not many fun minivans out there.

I haven't take any pictures yet since i just bought it a few days ago, she's on a trailer to my home now.

It's a very rough car

Ah I see. Still a sweet ride regardless. Do you plan on modifying it or are you just restoring it?

Simple: We own two of everything. Even if one of us doesn't want one of them, we still get two of it just to keep things fair. And then we have an extra Becker Jetvan that our hired driver uses to take us around the country.

I believe I win.

I intend to try surviving the arrival of kids with wagons. I see many Volvos or Subarus in my future. I'll will also take a manual transmission to my grave so options start thinning out.

We are doing pretty good with the Evo VIII and Cooper S. Funny thing is I drive the Mini a lot now due to the four door being more compatible with the munchkins. That and the Evo gets 21 MPG and it is 30 miles each way to work and it has a 13 gallon tank.

Our dream garage is a Zonda for her and an Atom for me.

I'd love my wife to drive an E63 AMG wagon, but I've yet to meet a women who'd take one over say a G-class for the money.

Looks like a CTS-V wagon 6MT is the only thing that'll please you!

I've always wanted to have 2 cars of each. Hoon one, take care of the other.

My frist job is making the car at least runs, so i guess i'm more into restoring it.

It's a 356A cabriolet 1.6 btw.

I'd like a future Mrs. PorscheTamer to have a Cayman GTS, but if she had an air-cooled 911 or 944, or god forbid a 928, I'd be the happiest man alive!(In my imaginary world, of course; far too young to think about this stuff I think?)

Oh hell yes! I got this figured out!

Dinan-Tuned 335i for the engineer in the family (me).

And a sexy yellow beast for my lawyer Bae

...and we'll need a set of wheels for the bad weather as well, but that'll come later ;)

If I hadn't ruthlessly kicked out CrzRsn, we'd have a garage full of his 13 Mustang GT, his NA Miata, my 97 XJ, my Yamaha, and a brand new Mustang for me this spring.

my girlfriend "one of my life goals is to never own a car."

This obviously means that I have to own twice as many cars in my life to make up for this disparity. It's not cuz I'm greedy, im just bringing balance to the force.

Well, let's be honest here - I'm probably going to end up dying alone, so I'll just make a good 2 car garage for me.

1.

2.

(Obviously the rusted cab corners would be repaired.)

I don't need fancy cars.

For her: dark blue BMW 328i "x-drive," automatic since she doesn't (yet) drive stick.

For me: whichever interesting car gets my attention within twelve hours of getting her car, most likely.

For example, if for some reason the dealership had a sweet Z8 in matching blue, I would so get that.

Well, we both want an Elise, so I'll be happy to take that.

Aubergine Purple is where it's at:

She's also in love with off road stuff, and while I'd be happy to have a screaming Samurai, she's more into the Wrangler:

And since I'm a good partner and let her have the stupid off roader, I get to keep a project car or two in the driveway/backyard. :)

My gal has been trying to steal my car for years. She has already told me she wants the first option to buy it if I ever decide to sell it. So in her honor here's my perfect garage:

Elwood is mine (black racer) and the other is the elusive XLR Unicorn aka Black Cherry V

Current hers and his garage. I would like to add to a Sharkwerks GT3 to my side, and she wants an R8 V10 coupe with the gated shifter!

We live together and have no plans to get married, because divorce costs. Been there, lost the house, etc.. Our current stable: 2007 Porsche Cayman, 2008 Audi TT, 2013 Jetta TDI, 2005 Tahoe. I know, I need a convertible
