Presently I have a 93R, 3 95R's, and a 00R. I think thats enough.
Some would agree with you. Others continue to accumulate. LOL! You're obviously very content with your (great) collection. Hope you get years more enjoyment from them.

My collection keeps growing, I have only mentioned the Cobra R's. I have most of the SVT Collection.
That is awesome.

You have three Cobra R's and several Mustang Cobra cars?

I had a 1994 Cobra which I wrote off when it was a business car then converted it to a race car.

I also had a nice 1997 Cobra that I traded away.

I have been lucky enough that my wife likes cars as well. We have not gotten ride of many cars in the 29 years we have been married. We sold a 93 lightning and a 97 Cobra Convert. I always loved the old car and would just get another as time went on. Seems garages have also had to increase.

Holy crap! You actually have a wood floor. I take it the garage is for storing your collection and not one that sees cars frequently going in and out? How many cars does the new garage hold?

I was looking at epoxy on floor but the concrete was very cracked, greasy, I worked out of this garage for 16 years. The cost to redo concrete surface and then epoxy was almost as much as oak, looks good now. Yes These are the driver garage spaces, I have 6 in there, connecting garage has work space and concrete. I need somewhere to work.

The 00 Cobra R will go back into there, or the old GT500. I still need a family car, I had a Focus RS I used but the someone really wanted it more than me. I could not see myself in a explorer, I have worked on those for years. The P is a Turbo with Performance Pack, they did not make a S in the Macan and I have to have a SUV for wife, this is also how I told myself the GT500 with a auto would be ok, the PDK is good. It may not look like it fits but it is red and fast.

I get it, wife's suv is a current V-8 X5. The Macan, in the pic, looks parked in a collector car area (tucked in under, vs at the door ready to be pulled out).
