I have three, I'm a car enthusiast. I want to enjoy my car without the entirety of society being required to own them to exist.

Even if the dream is achieved and taking my car is more expensive and slower than public transit (which it should be), I'd still drive most of the time because I actually enjoy it. I'd rather not share the road with people that also actually want to be there. It'd be a safer and more pleasant experience.
