Is your EMIRA your only sport car?

Bought an AP1 S2000 a few months ago! 9000 rpm is pretty dang cool

My new Emira is garaged alongside my daily-driver, a wicked fast but boring looking BMW iX M60 and a 2016 C7 Corvette Z06. I am happy with the balance between the EV the 650hp Corvette and my wonderful Lotus. Probably a good thing that we are out of garage space.

Just added for the wife, a low mileage 2023 BMW M850i convertible with xdrive too. Also quite fast in a straight line at least, 523 HP 550 ft/lbs out of the twin turbo V8. It’s a really nice car, just a completely different mission than my sweet Lotus. We both love a convert and nice to have AWD in the mountains where we get some icy, snowy stuff in the winter.. That and my truck of course.😁

It’s a 2 door at least. 2016 Holden Commodore VF2 Redline Ute. LS3 410 hp, Brembo braked.
(Actually it’s my work car for my home construction business)

I don't have an Emira yet, but planning on selling my low mileage M3 and buying one. Keeping the 911.
I'm in the same boat. Thinking of unloading my SG/Black that I've had for 14 years now and trying an Emira, but can't get over how great the induction note on the S54 has been all these years....

Although to be fair, I did just sell the Elise last week.

TVR Tuscan which I was going to sell when the Emira arrived. Built an extension on the garage instead to make room to keep both. :giggle:
I parted with my tuscan after 20 years of ownership for my Emira
 
emira is my only sports car. I do have an suv and sold a modified RCF a little while back.

When this thread was started, I didn't have an Emira, but it most definitely IS NOT my only sports car!
My problem is, for most my life, is that if I buy a fun sports car.. I tend to KEEP them. To that end, when I bought my house in So Cal, it was a teeny house, with no garage, on a decent lot with a small ocean view.

So I built a 1300' garage..... and have been adding lifts.

I don't have but the 1 new car, my Clark Emira. But I also have.. ( will start with most recent purchases and go backwards)

2009 Type 25 Jim Clark edition EliseSC
1960 MGA Twin Cam
2008 Exige S240
2005 Elise S2
1977 TVR Taimar Turbo
1984 TVR Tasmin
1972 TVR "hybrid" with a 302 V8
1959 TVR Grantura
1968 TVR Tuscan SE V8
1979 TVR 3000S
1960 MGA 1600 mk1 <---- my first car!!

The 59 Grantura and the Twin Can were bought as projects, all the others are the "ran when parked" category.

Will try to add some pics..

And yes, I'm a bit mental.. 🤣 .. and unmarried.
