Hmmm, I would have thought the BMW 3 series would make this list.

18 Miatas? Huh, good on you oppo. I always figured we were like most Jalops (manual elitist, sportscar snobs) but in reality just drove automatic crossovers.

That’s a lot more Civics than I thought Oppo had.

21, if you include M3s... but then you have to include all Golfs with GTIs. It gets complicated. I did include a GT350 with the Mustangs, fwiw...

There are 20 total 3-series models on the spreadsheet at the moment if you lump them all together including the M3s.

So sayeth I, the owner of a BMW 3-series.

(Interestingly there are zero 4-series models on the list in spite of what I assume are plenty of older 3-series coupes including mine . One M2 is in the mix.)

Surprised to see only 3 2nd-gen Firebird owners. Thought we had a ton of those. I do love seeing the various posts about them. hardly complaining!

Wait for E92 M3. He'll add like 30 M3s to the list

I got 21... one is listed as “E46" - model not given.

Just buy one before Monday and it will be included in the roll-up! =)

Added 5 of my vehicles. I technically have one more but its currently for sale

Whoops you’re right , I saw that one the first time I counted but then I realized I needed to scroll farther down and must’ve skipped over it on my trip back up to the top of the list.

uhhhh....i probably did that wrong.....

was i not supposed to fill in #1 slot?

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com
11/26/2019 at 16:51

It is. I just hadn’t realized Oppo owned that many, you don’t see them posted often.

davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com > WilliamsSW
11/26/2019 at 16:52

Also, an M2 is really what an M3 should be , so... =)

I need to go look at the spreadsheet and play with it, because that seems like more fun than the spreadsheets I’m playing with right now, trying to explain why our gross margin will go up $14m in the second half of the year...

This is exactly what I was wondering when I went in and sorted on model (and got quickly re-sorted by someone else, likely you, sorry about that).

Thanks!

Interesting note: i f cars were listed in order of most to least driven in the comments , then the most daily-driven cars would go GTI - Civic - Outback - 4Runner - Miata .

davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com > WilliamsSW

Just think how many cars we could add to this list with an extra $14m...

davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com > Regulus
11/26/2019 at 17:00

Unfortunately, I’m not sure how reliable that ordering is. Some people put them in order, some people didn’t, and sometimes I guessed when they obviously didn’t. Also, pretty sure some included other household cars when I was trying to keep those out (unless used a lot).

RPM esq. > CarsofFortLangley - Oppo Forever

How dare you sir! I don’t drive any automatic crossovers except for the two I own for the Mrs. and Jr.

I am a bit surprised by the low Corvette count, and in particular the C5 Corvette, and even more in particular the C5 Z06 Corvette.

It was my nominee for Oppo car of the year 2019, partly because I came so close to buying one early this summer. Plus Jordan and ItalianJobR53 posting all about theirs.

I guess I just had confirmation bias there.

thank you lol

ill try not to do that again

ClassicDatsunDebate > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com
11/26/2019 at 17:03

Added mine. Surprised there are more 4Runners than Wranglers. I’ve had both and either is worth owning at least once in your life.

WilliamsSW > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com
11/26/2019 at 17:04

28,000 or so

Regulus > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com
11/26/2019 at 17:04

Yeah, that’s why I put that caveat of the order actually holding up. Interesting if true, though.

TheD0k_2many toys 2little time > MonkeePuzzle

ITS NOT A PROBLEM. I CAN TOTALLY STOP BUYING MORE CARS WHENEVER I WANT.

(Yall got anymore of them craigslist ads?)

Maybe there aren’t many Civics because they keep being stolen ? /jk

CB > CarsofFortLangley - Oppo Forever

According to the spreadsheet, we’re the last two with Fiesta STs. Both in bright colours with racing stripes, of course.

Hard to believe at one time they were car of the year for Oppo. Where did they all go?

Bright colour + stripes is the best scheme for any fun car.

11/26/2019 at 17:14

No problem. Just a lot easier for people adding entries to see it listed by owner, so I’m trying to leave it like that whenever I’m done with it.

CB > CarsofFortLangley - Oppo Forever
11/26/2019 at 17:14

Crashed and/or sold, most likely.

And I’m pretty sure you’re right on that.

1st Gen is pure street cred. I had a new 4th gen which was a blast on logging road trips but I was always worried about bumps and bruises. The Wrangler on the otherhand....

Three of the cars I’ve had (out of 6) were/are manual. A 4, a 5, and a 6 speed. All three were mated to 4 cylinders. None were sports cars. The only one I wouldn't rather drive over a crossover is the 4 speed. No overdrive SUCKS.

I had a 99 v6 4x4 with a rolled back odometer (found out later it was really more like 390,000 miles instead in the 160,000 I had thought)

Then an 07 SR5 v8 4x4, had an accident and got in the 98 gx470

How early years Top Gear reboot this all is. Tracking down how many previously good cars are left on this little island, small group of enthusiasts assembled that come nowhere near filling the studio, I forget what else since it’s been awhile but assume a third strong association exists that punctuated my theory.
