For instants: 1. Nice practical (and quiet) DD for work and long distant trips. 2. Winter backup beater, when you want to go blasting though the snow and not be concerned about wrecking a $30k+ plus vehicle. 3. Balls-to-the-walls enthusiast car. A limited usage performance only, zero compromises street driven rocket. 4. Spec class race car (typically not street legal).

There are of course more subcategories than this, but I would suggest a single car will force compromise.

Just one point of view though

Tachyon, we need to hang out more, that is exactly how I approach the car owning experience.
