Quoted: I had a buddy with an Escort GT. Had all the factory ground effects cladding. IMO that was one cool fucking ride in its time. View Quote You should have seen the turbo 2.0 l version that came within an eyelash of production. Faster than the Z28/Trans Am of the time, and faster than the contemporary Mustang GT too. Probe GT wheels/tires on Contour front hubs and brakes with V6 Tempo front discs/hubs on the rear of the car. Would have been a '95 model. |

Avanti with a 2JZ swap.
Also saw a Volga that was made into a coupe and put on an E31 BMW 850is chassis. |

Their biggest issue was that the seat tracks had play in them that could only be temporarily damped with grease. You'd get a rock forward/rock back-click on every shift. |

Quoted: Years ago it was the last gen F-150 Lightning. I mean, I'm not even really a pickup dude, but holy cow did I ever want one. Time machine knowing what I know now, sign me up for a brand spanking new one. I don't think too many folks liked em though. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/88366/wwR-2750577.jpg View Quote Bought new in 2000. 23 years, 57,000 miles later and it’s still a blast to drive. People see it now and assume it’s the battery operated version. |

This is purely a nostalgia choice, because this was my first car- a 1992 Mazda MX-3. I've toyed with the idea of picking up another for several years. They're not common any more, but they're dirt cheap because nobody wants them. Mine was the anemic 88hp 1.6L I4; if I get another I want the 1.8L V6 GS version. |

If stupid rich, SuperPerformance GT40 but instead of a 427 SB Ford have it running a 4 rotor turbo angry dorito.
Mic American icon with the sounds of a 787B. Pretty happy with what I have as is. 66 Mustang with road racing inspired suspension/brakes and 380whp brings all the sensational bliss. |

In 1972 I'd have bought a new Opel Manta. The local dealer said they were not to be found but, in retrospect, I think he may have just blown me off as a broke dick 20-year-old tire kicker.

Quoted: 1959 Cadillac Hearse. View Quote 4 of us guys were at a junk yard and ended up buying a 1958 Cadillac Hearse for $50.00, $12.50 each. Motor was shot so we ended up taking the engine out of one of the guys fathers 1962 Cadillac while he was on vacation. We drove that thing everywhere, put a mattress in the back and ashtrays in the wood shelves. Registered it as a 1958 Cadillac black wagon. It was parked at the guy who had the 1962 Cadillac house and ended up getting junked, he said by mistake but we were never sure. He was pissed about the engine. This must have been the early or mid 70's. |
