Can be used or new, modern or classic. No budget limit.

But, cannot combine 2 across different generations.

Can combine mainstream brand and luxury brand- but they have to be both based on the same car, same platform is not enough. You can’t do Mazda 3 and Cx-5 but you can do S60 and V60

Can combine local and international variants

Can combine variants of the vehicle if they are sold under a different name but are essential same brand- e.g. Chevy Holden Opel

Can be 2 of the same car if you want.

I’ll go with a very obvious choice. Current 3 series F31 328D xDrive M sport package Wagon for a daily driver and F84 M4 GTS coupe for the weekend

Well I just won’t drive either more than 50,000 miles and I should be fine. That'll give me like 4 full years of driving.

2 identical Mk3 Golf GLs, same year, OBDII (so 1996+). One to be driven, one for parts. Or both for parts for the Golf I already have that’s parked outside where it belongs.

Not bad. I’m curious if there were Japanese 80s options I could’ve chosen. Corolla F x and station wagon? But I’m not going to cross check dates of manufacture. :)

You can option no wing! And a regular Imprezza will make you sad.

Daily the wagon, practicality of a right hand drive car in the US will be ignored.

Any RWD Commodore Sportwagen + the equivalent Ute, both in the performance trim. You can pick any gen you want.

Hmmm,

or

SEAT Leon SC Cupra 300, manual 2.0TSi 296bhp.

SEAT Leon FR Technology, manual 1.4TSi 123bhp

To be honest on this side of the pond there are just too many like the Ford Focus’, Vauxhall Astras, Renaults, Citroens, etc...

I’m going slightly practical, cause that’s what you get when you hit 50, but I think I’d go with a couple of older Subaru’s.

A 2005 Legacy GT for me.

And an ‘05 Outback for the Mrs.

I’ve always liked the looks of these, far better than what’s out at the moment.

No, doesn’t count. Has to be variants of the same vehicle, not underpinnings.

Would you believe that that’s against the rules? The utes had a different chassis bolted on from the B pillar back. Unless you go right back to the WB Kingswood...which was not a Commodore. Sorry.

I wouldn’t mine that at all. as long as one or both were manual. My first car was a 92 Camry. It was a fine car. nothing to brag about but for an 1800 dollar car it did it’s job remarkably well.

Did I violate the rules?

Here’s the deal. I love the TT. I had one. I will have one again. Mine was a coupe. I want a drop top. Gotta show the world how good my hair looks, ya know?

And the Atlas, well, it’s a giant generic crossover. But it somehow defies physics. I can’t believe how huge it was when I tossed myself in it at the dealer . It’s like a portal to another world. I feel the opposite with our Tahoe. Giant on the outside. Tiny on the inside.

I should start saving up for when Evo wagons hit the 25 year mark. 2030 is still 12 years away that gives me approximately 4400 days to save up. If i stash away 5 dollars a day I’ll have 22,000 dollars. so i’ll only be 20,000 short of what will probably be the going rate (adjusted for another 12 years of inflation.)

Some of the Evo 8s are trading around the $15k to $20k mark. But at that point watch it be $100k for an early 2000s mitsubishi.

That’ s a good point right now is probably the time to buy an Evo. They’ve plateaud for a long time staying in the 18-22 range, but watch in 5 years an unmodified one will be 30k or more.

Calling them the same car is a very long stretch when they only shared the firewall and everything forward of that. I appreciate your choices and all but they weren’t the same car...

Now if you’d picked a VY or VZ wagon and the equivalent Adventra wagon or even the Crewman or Crewman Cross6/Cross8 ute then  I wouldn’t have quibbled ...
