> You had 50 cars til now? Easily. Probably before even hitting my early 30s. The term is known as carcaine for a reason, funny enough I attribute not getting into (much) trouble growing up to cars, and it's what gave me access to meeting more people in tech/engineering/medical fields than just about anything else when I was outside of it. I spent most of my teenage years and young adult life immersed in motorsports at various levels and as I said worked in the auto industry for a while. I had delusions of being a GT pilot for a while, too; so given the company I kept I got access to a lot of cheap/crashed chassis or front clips with misc parts to make things out of for a while. My first 2 businesses were all car/car part based, fintech was the outlier in that regard. > What are you doing to those cars? Driving not longer than a year? Bought, fixed, drove, got bored and sold/traded mainly. 50 is conservative to be honest. I still own my very first car, which also makes that same chime noise I mentioned. Time wise... hard to say, I just keep them until I no longer want to deal with them and do the aforementioned or give it away if all else fails. The only Nissan I still really want but haven't owned is a Nissan Patrol, which I almost bought when I was in Europe, but decided against it at the last minute and bought a really cool MK4 GTI to teach my friend how to drive and eventually give to him. I got a Land Cruiser when I got back to the US instead and I'm happy with my purchase. Sidenote: its stupidly easy to get a car registered to drive in Germany, even as a auslander, if you play their stupid games; what they get you on is that TUV BS which is honestly just another of making sure people subsidize the auto industry--who are incredibly powerful in that country and write many of the laws.
