Curious... I don't just mean a real car. I mean any and every car that you own. Be it radio control, model, hotwheels, wooden, paper foldout. I think for me it has to be in the hundreds. Might just go and try count each one.
 
6 real ones, 37 1:18s, a couple hundred Matchbox/Hot Wheels and some MASK/Transformers from back in the day...
 
20

All but 5 are Ryan Newman 1:24 die cast cars, the other 5 are from a race where all 3 Penske cars ran Mobil 1 schemes(have all 3 in both 1:24 and 1:64).

Will be getting a real one some time later this year.
 
If we're counting cars that "aren't real", Do cars from video games and photos and drawings count?
 
Oh jeeze. I don't own my own car(I call the ford mine because I'm the only one who drives it) but we have 4 cars at my house, and toy cars, I must have just shy of 100. I got rid of so many hotwheels, all the ones I disliked or that were just junk. I saved maybe 20 or so of them.

If we are talking video game cars like AOS was asking, I don't think I have enough fingers and toes to count those :O
I'd say into the thousands with that one.
 
I got a few RC cars which I destroyed for the motors and PCB's, do they count?
I got an R2-D2 (made with the addition of motors from the above mentioned cars) but I know it's not exactly a car, but definitely rocks.
Got a Lada Samara back home in London. It was a gift from my grandfather when I turned 16 and has been collecting dust and moss for around a decade now, used it once, felt like a tank. Never had a UK driving license (for cars).
My office desk owns a picture of a Ferrari Dino and a Bugatti type 57 (Atlanta) because we can all dream.
My wife owns a Toyota Hilux 06 with the quad cab because.........er, I don't really know why, possible the TopGear review. I suppose it's kind of mine too because I could use it if I had a car license.
Oh.....and I own every taxi in this city for about 45 minutes a day.
 
I have about 300 Hot wheels and about 20 or so die-cast cars of different scales.
 
My intention was tangible real cars be them toys or 1:1 scale. If you start going into virtual cars as well it can be a bit much.

I'm still counting. I'll have an answer soon.
 
Zero:(

I probably couldn't get away with owning a car by the way[/SARCASM]

That being said, I've had about 30 RC cars in the past, along with 30 more Hotwheels cars, and around 12 scale models. The one I most vivdly remember is a diecast Murcielago
 
Ok just finished counting. 516 cars all up. I'd hate to think how much I spent on them!
 
I have 2 real cars and 7 model cars of various makes, 4 of those were the little kits you build yourself.

The real cars are a 1.6 Foxus LX MK1 and a Renault Clio 1.5 Diesel something or other which was kindly donated by the parents after I got rid of the Bora due the cost of running it as a second car.

The model kits I have are of a Porsche 959, 1984 Ferrari GTO, Lancia Delta S4 and a Ferrari 512 BB Daytona.

The other two models I have are a Mercedes CLK-GTR and a Dodge Viper GTS.
 
4. 3 are some company called "Newray" that I saw and bought while shopping, they are a Ford GTX1, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, and BMW M5 with the windows chopped off. The other is a large one (there's no ratio scales!) '62 Chevy from the 50th Anniversary of Hot Rod magazine, with Interstate Batteries logos on it. (and ironic Pontiac logos)
 
Damn I was about to say that, but in a year or two I'll almost own one, known as a Nissan S:censored:tbox (Primera)
 
Only one. A '96 Acura Integra.

Pretty fun to drive though. :D
 
Unless your GT5 cars are tangible, I'm going to have to say no :p


Okay then.


Probably a hundred or so. I have one real car and lots of Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars (had a lot of these as a kid). I have a few Tamiya models as well as some 1:18 scale model cars.
