...a 2002 GSXR750



Not really a practical alternative, but it's a lot cheaper to crash on the track!

Garage
1999 Boxster
It's my only car, but it is more practical than most, with a hardtop, roof box, roof rack, and twin trunks!

(I might buy a project car in the next year though, to become a more practical winter car)

1998 Honda Accord with 128,000 miles [1/3 life expectancy]. See the thread on the Millionaire Next Door. I hope to drive it into the ground [if I live long enough]

2000 Kawasaki ZRX 1100 [V4 chain drive high performance sport cruiser] Its for sale! I decided to learn how to throw the Boxster around after everyone went out and bought a motorcycle and crowded my favorite mountain playgrounds. I will miss the bike, but the Box is safer these days.

FTD, you sound like me. My other car is an '05 Accord with 50k miles. The way, I see it, it's just broken in.

The ZRX 1100 is an inline four, not a V4. Typo?

My other car is a 1996 Nissan Altima with 190,000 miles. My other other car is a 2003 Suzuki SV1000S.

You are right it is inline. I had a Honda VF1100 that was V4. I liked it better than the Kawasaki because of all the great Honda reasons. Very smooth, very powerful. It was a 1986 so a little heavier and not as torqued as a year 2000 engineering brings, but a very excellent bike. I miss it, too!

But I love the Boxster. I really do. I test drove it one day and bought it the next.
