What is your weekend/2nd car?

We discussed what car we had previously. Now, do you have a weekend/2nd car? When/what mood/what purpose do you drive your monthly washed vehicle?

Start with me, I have a 07 Toyota Prius for commuting to customers. My 2nd car is a 2002 Chili Red Mini Cooper S six speed manual. I live by the beach so you know what the weather would be like. I just love the weather and if it was an easy work day, i'd drive my mini cooper around the blocks. Maybe drive a bit faster, corner a bit sooner etec.

1. after work
2. happy mood / bad mood / any mood :rock-n-roll:
3. just for fun

Perhaps a boring thread but couldn't think of anything else.

I am a motorhead for sure, but Bikes are the main interest for me...I am actually a factory trained Harley Mechanic, comes in real handy for fixing printers, lol. When I am not on a bike (we have a garage full) I like to run around in my Caballerro (El Camino), its a plain jane looking 1980 with a pretty hot 350 we built in the backyard.

I can't show a picture of er' because the transmission went out the other week, and we're in the midst of looking for another one, but my wife bought this car a year old back in 2001, and I've been in love with it ever since. I hope I'm never forced to sell it. I don't have a recent picture, but this is basically what it is...or used to be when it was new. Paint has faded a little over time, and it's still my daily driver so I can save my truck.

I have one of these and a GT version. The roadster is currently in the shop nearing the end of a total restoration. The GT is in a barn.... waiting it's turn.

What is that Kraig, a GTO ? Pretty sweet looking!
It's a Pontiac Grand Prix GTX with Ram Air. Most incredible car I've ever driven. I wasn't around in the muscle car days, so this is as close as my generation probably will get. It will haul. I just can't make myself part with it.

I found this picture on my phone...this was the morning the transmission went out...sad site to see the ole girl on the trailer.

Nice Mini Fieldcenter! I had an '02 Dark Silver until a couple months ago, it was heavily modified so it got driven so so rarely it wasn't worth having, traded it in for a new SUV for my wife, but I dearly miss it, it was a blast to drive...

When the lease is up on my Silverado in August I'll be picking up an '05 or '06 BMW M3... Woot!
