2000 Porsche 996 C2 and 2004 Porsche Cayenne S.
I almost bought a new 325i over the TL because it drove so much better but decided on the TL for power, size, looks, and overall better value.

My girlfriend drives my 1989 Mercedes 420SEL.
In addition, I inherited a couple old classics from my father when he passed away: A '56 Jaguar XK140 and a WW2-era BMW motorcycle (haven't yet been able to figure out the exact year or model). Both are in dire need of restoration. :\

I was going to get my wife an MDX but she doesnt want to drive a new car. I decided to get the TL instead.... she now drives my '01 V6 Accord. She had an old Camry that had 250k miles.

2000 Toyota Sienna for the family hauler. 
(But at least my wife let me order the alloys, so it could look worse.) 
Fortunately my wife doesn't know how to drive my 6MT!

I love the Lotus Elise but I have to settle with my miata instead. I love the Elise but a bit out of my price range. Even the TL was streching it for me but the TSX wasn't worth the buy compare to the TL.
My other car is a 95 M-edition Miata with an FMII turbo, 240 rwhp

My other car is a '91. A work in progress. Flyin Miata has ended their relationship with Bell Engineering, so I'm holding off on the FMII install until a new kit is out (or step up to the Ubercharger when that's ready for my generation)JR suspension and antiroll bars
Tokico shocks
OZ Superleggera Corsa 17x7 wrapped with Yokohama Parada tires
Prepped for the FMII kit with a FM "Happy Meal" - ACT Clutch, 1.8 lightweight flywheel retrofit
Cross drilled rotors all around
At this point I can grab a new block or mod the original 1.6L powerplant. I don't have a photo that I can post here yet, but that's coming soon.

Ok now let's be honest. How many of the cars you all listed actually are owned by you?
"Oh well it's really my Dad's car, but he let's me drive it in the driveway. I'm a very good driver."

My daily driver is a 2002 GMC Envoy SLT with several mods. The wife drives an '01 Olds Silhouette minivan - not sure how long I can keep this deal going. She's never driven my '04 TL and has put maybe 50 miles on the Envoy.
I can't post attachments at this time but will later if I can.
