i just wanted to share me story with everyone here as it's my favorite forum! so if you have a story about how you acquired several cars as well, please share!
So somehow i have 4 car's in my possesion and it was not my intention at all to do this on purpose, it just kind of happened.
Actually i've had 2 cars for quite a long time, I had my MX-3 and my GF's 240SX and i only got the other 2 cars in the last month or so
Now the 240SX was bought by my GF when she was with her ex from a guy who had it as a project car because the car was/is quite rusty but he never really worked on it so he decided to sell it. They were going to do a custom SHO engine swap and do the body work and paint the car.
There's a whole story to what happened but to make it short her ex basically sanded down the whole car and replaced the coolant with water cause he was draining fluids but needed something from the store and he never got back to it and left the water in there through the winter and screwed the engine. (water spews out somewhere)
The car still kind of ran but not good at all, i got barely it into my shed/garage and it didn't start again after that.
Before.

After the ex got to it. (we were touching it up a bit hoping to paint, but didn't get around to it)

So after a while i thought i would get my GF a car so i didn't have to drive her to work all the time and so if i was busy she wouldn't have to take the bus and a list came up for a 87 Camaro V6 T-top with a bad steering column for $500, i read online that the 3rd gen Camaro's steering columns have bolts that come loose because the factory didn't use lock-tite to secure the bolts and it's a pretty simple procedure to fix so i went to check the car out and it was in decent condition, but more importantly the car ran fantastic and started on a dime, it could still drive with the bad steering column but wasn't very safe, so i offered the guy $425 and he accepted then i drove it home and parked it and haven't gotten around to fixing it XD (although just today i did pick up some tools needed to fix the steering column so hopefully she'll be fixed very soon)

So if you've seen my worklog at all, you would of read that my water pump in my MX-3 recently went on me which left me with no car for about a week or so.
Then one day my brother called me, "how you doing? i heard your car went down. Well i got a new car so if you can make it down to Calgary you can have my old car cause i didn't sell it yet"
I was very lucky because my cousin who lives in Edmonton just happened to be making a trip to Calgary the next day, so i hitched a ride with him and picked up my brothers old car, i didn't even have to pay anything because the car was still registered and my name was put into the insurance when i got my license and my brother set the insurance to parking, so all i had to do was call and have it switch back to driving again. in fact my brother left $2 dollers of change in the change pocket so it's like he paid me to take it! XD

This is how my drive way looks now. (the 240 is in the shed)

So that's my long a-- story!
it feels awesome to own so many car's, but hurts a lot to have only one car properly running XD
