Default Your second car/fun car

Hello

So understandably most of us here have a Lexus and we all know the reason why we enjoy our cars. I have been thinking about buying a used pocket rocket or something fun. I have been thinking about buying a mk2 Gti or something similar. Do you guys/gals have a fun car?

Cool

A couple of "seconds" but each serves its purpose and the only way to enjoy them is not to go into massive debt acquiring them :

'97 Lexus SC300 - Swap from the normally aspirated 2JZ-GE to the 2JZ-GTE is imminent. This is my primary project car. I'm just saving up & then she's uber.

'99 Regency Conversion Van
- For roadtrips, family time and it's the ULTIMATE tailgating vehicle.

'05 Harley-Davidson RoadKing Classic
- chromed, modded to the nines and my chillout ride.

A well tuned 3s-gte in that little body would kill anything on the road.
