2nd car with i8?

rocke29 · 08-22-2016, 11:56 PM

As I mentioned on here, I sold my M-B CLA45 AMG since I really didn't need two somewhat pricey cars at my current income level (plus I only have a one car garage).

So I am looking for a fun little car to screw around with, and I have decided on a Fiat 500 Abarth. I really miss driving a manual and this thing is super fun, nimble, and low mile preowned ones are really cheap (around $12k).

What else does everyone own besides an i8?

I drive my dad's Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, I,don't have a second car and I don't need it at all. However, I have set my eyes on the F48 X1 X Drive and also love G11/12 7 Series. The latter isn't an option for now

I have a 1968 pagoda 280sl... I like contrasts!

Ollie_Chic · 08-23-2016, 06:03 AM

I have a Merc GLA too, but then again I have 2 little kids so the i8 is not always practical

I get my i8 on Friday. However, here is my M6 with my second car.....a Jeep

As per garage list on the left: Volvo to haul family and stuff around, Triumph and Corvette for old-school down-to-earth driving.

Range Rover of course

Nice

rocke29 · 08-28-2016, 04:34 PM

I found a great deal on a 2013 Fiat Abarth Cabrio. I am flying from NJ down to Florida to complete the purchase and drive up next Saturday.

Hitz101 · 08-30-2016, 05:13 AM

Huracan.

rocke29 · 08-30-2016, 09:20 AM

Whoa, I am jealous of everyone on here...me with my little Fiat Abarth

hytek · 08-30-2016, 10:13 PM

The logical answer is to buy something that can do what the i8 can't: haul lots of people and stuff. So, it should be an SUV or I would dare say, a minivan

wanesso · 09-04-2016, 10:14 PM

Just got GTR (to balance the i8)

Daily is a Prius. Lowered, rims, 18" wheels, LED lights. Can't have my customers see where all my money's going to....so I have to seem "humble."

Family hauler is an Odyssey.

My second car is my trusty 2006 BMW M5...

Ghetto2315 · 09-11-2016, 10:38 AM

My tuned F82 M4 6MT, which was my daily driver, is on its way out to make room for the i8 - which will also be my daily driver.

Still have my E46 M3 Convertible 6MT for fun in the sun, my E39 540i 6MT for people hauling and my Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport Pickup for golfing and other nonsense.
