My '94...
I've seen your name a lot on SF over the years, although I haven't been on in a while. Clean car! Mine is a '94 as well. My father owned a Ren Red/Tan about 15 years ago, always loved that Red!

Edit: Speaking of OG's, I just got my cluster done by Stu Hagen, great work!

The op should have asked What's your other vehicle instead.

Many of us don't have another car, but some other vehicle.
For me it's my 2002 Dakota R/T pickup.

Bought it new in 2002, and has 56000 miles on it.

It has been a terrific truck over the years.
I have had a few classic cars over the years, but presently the pickup is what I own besides the vette.

I use a car for work so want efficiency. Up early to go replace an Accord EXL with an Accord Sport today. Also bought a mint 2003 Miata with a hardtop intending to do some autocross and maybe track with it. The Miata is bedlam inside at highway speeds and being tall, I need a chiropractor after an hour in it, so away it goes when spring hits. Tundra tow vehicle usually sits in the garage during winter.

It's only a lowly 2016 Chev Tahoe.

But wait it's tagged."SSV". For those who don't know, that's a police special services vehicle......Tiger clothed in black!

Currently have a '96 TT M6 JDM.

I kick myself in the *** all the time for not pulling the trigger on an MKIV when I had the money; or an early Viper for that matter. Went for the lower mile ‘belly button’ c5. What a financial mistake that was. Seemed to make more sense on paper.

I had a BUILT 7M car around 13yrs ago. I miss the noises.

I had a '00 5.9 R/T that looked just like that but with silver painted wheels. Fun truck
It definitely had a healthy appetite for 93 octane!

I hear you. When I bought my STi, a Supra was cheaper, but I was still living at home and needed something I could run year round. Once I got the garage space the prices went through the stratosphere.

What I'd love to see is a comparison article between the Supra and C5 from someone who owns (and enjoys) both. Break down the driving experience, the interior experience, fit and finish, ease of use, ingress and egress, etc.

When they were new they were quite close on paper in terms of performance, so I'm curious to see how they've held up over the years.
