Anyone bought anything decent this year then?

I am locked and loaded for a new M4 Competition purchase, just waiting for LCI to be released which will be next year - hurry up!
 
I'm buying a 300hp Sea Doo next year, but nothing real exciting this year.
 
I bought a Fisher Astronaut Space Pen, a ThinkPad x260, an EVGA GTX1070 and a lot of groceries. 🙂
 
I bought a used Edge for my woman this year to replace her dead old Taurus. It's much nicer and faster than my forester.
 
Been on a wait list for a hybrid. Was hoping to have it this year, but it's looking like I'll have to wait till next year. Also planning on getting the new Civic hatchback, but the model I want is not going to be out until early 2017. So just a whole bunch of delayed gratification here. Pretty sure my money is about to burn down the bank if it stays in there much longer.
 
Just bought a Turbo Veloster for the Mrs. and spent $6,000 overhauling my F-150's engine and transmission. No more fun for me.
 
Bought a house, 0-60 is never going to happen.

I do want to get a new personal car, but, this house thing is cutting into all kinds of money. Coupled that with a kid, and you have a recipe for no new car for daddy.
 
2008 RX-8 40th AE, a few days after my daughter was born... helps make up for selling my '91 turbo Miata.
 
Trying to buy a 17 Raptor - but probably not going to happen until early/mid next year once supply catches up.
 
New tires, new transmission solenoid pack and complete cooling system overhaul (degas tank, all hoses, plastic parts, etc. except radiator and water pump) for the 06 LS.
 
Last year of the Shelby GT500 Cobra, 2014, got it in March, 700hp almost, Dino 586hp at the rear wheels, she is a beast of a garage queen. But finally my dream car, now that the kiddos are out of the house.

Got a second Model S a couple of months ago. Too ashamed to admit it, since I keep reading about how terrible they are.
 
I bought a house and a child (with the amount of out of pocket expenses we incurred for the birth of our son, it feels like we bought him from the hospital). Those are expensive enough!

really? What's so terrible about them? I thought Tesla has one of the biggest brand loyalty out of all the car manufacturers.

I am really happy with both of them, but people will tell you that it is because I am a fan boy.
(and I probably am)
There are certainly issues with both, especially when compared with other cars in their price range, but when it came time to replace my car there wasn't another option out there that interested me. So I bought the second one.
