She definitely has her car and I have mine. Mine’s over a decade old with over 100k miles, and hers is a year old. I think her car is really neat, but there’s a lot I don’t like about it. Too much tech, too many weird quirks in the systems, and it’s a little compact for my height. I’m glad she likes her car, but we definitely have assigned cars.

The kids are our deciding factor.

If one of us going somewhere with the little 'uns, then the "family car" with the nicer booster seats gets taken by whoever it is that has them. Whoever is getting the peace and quiet, drives the little runabout.

I usually take the little car, and it surprises me sometimes when I jump into the family car and I've got another 50bhp under my right foot.

sharing things with your spouse????

We share a single car between family members. And we do not live in the same household or even the same cities / towns.

ok one or both partners hate cars. Neither can survive without a car if the other one doesn't have a car. That is a colossal failure, but we'll move on.

One of our cars is a manual, and I'm the only one who can drive stick.

Insurance and ownership papers here generally require a primary owner here, at least on paper

Why are there so many question marks??? That's not how questions work??????
