Sport	Off-Road	Touring
1968 Datsun 2000 Roadster	1991 Nissan Safari Patrol	2015 Mercedes-Benz E63 S 4MATIC Wagon
If you don’t want to own this car after watching the drive video, the sports car section of your soul is missing.	Another quirky Japanese 4×4. It is even right-hand drive. The LED fog lights have to be replaced by sealed beam units.	Because it is the AMG version with 577 HP and all-wheel drive this will sub in the Sports category on rainy days too.

If you are Miata shopping there is quite a selection on BAT right now:

1. A low-mileage stock, much sought after, 1995 M-Edition.
2. A nicely turbocharged silver first gen car.
3. A very early 302 V-8 swapped NA in blinding green.
4. A 6.2 liter LS3 in a second generation NB car.

Number 4 in a Continuing Series of SORT.

Sport	Off-Road	Touring
1970 Porsche 911T Coupe	1988 Land Rover 90	1987 BMW 635CSi
Nothing quite says sport car like a 911.	That stance just broadcasts authority.	Wow, another BMW for touring, sense a type here?

One From the 70’s, 80’s & 90’s Edition of SORT.

Sport	Off-Road	Touring
1970 Volvo 1800E	1986 Mercedes-Benz 280GE	1994 BMW 850CSi
Black with Red interior just says sports car.	Worth it, if just for that plaid interior.	See lasts week’s Touring car’s description…

Because every week was there not a track focused car, I always had a very hard time narrowing down a daily driver and it was very hard to pick something to crush – Track, Daily Crush is dead.

Our current garage consists of a Mazda Miata for pleasure drives, the *sport* of carving of canyons and weekend getaways and a Mini Cooper for local errands, inclement weather transport and comfortable *touring*. We have made no secret that we need one more vehicle, a Jeep to advantage of all the *off-road* opportunities that Oregon has to offer, if we could get just one more garage bay.

So, welcome to the inaugural edition of Touring, Sport, Off-Road. Where I will pick a dream garage with something to substitute for the Mini and Miata, plus pick a nice vehicle for leaving the pavement in.

The First Edition of SORT.

Sport	Off-Road	Touring
Electric Porsche 356 Speedster Replica	1978 Toyota Chinook 4×4 Conversion	2007 Porsche Cayman 5-Speed
With the stated range it will only be local canyons…	Not only ride off-road, but camp there too.	The quintessential tourer; fast, comfy. lots of space.
