My first car, a 1985 Camaro Berlinetta with T-Tops. Something about that wonky digital dash made me love it.


Not minority enough!

I had one of those at one point. That tape deck mounted on the swivel Post was crazy. The little tab on the side of the dash for blinkers was pretty out there too. The dash reminded me of Knight Rider.

Porsche 997.1 GT3 in white - epic car and the sounds were incredible. I'm sure I'll have another one. Sold this to raise cash for a new lake home.

1949 Mercury coupe. Carefully rebuilt a Ford flathead that ran so sweet. One particularly great memory was picking my wife up at a hotel when she rode the bus from college to visit me for the weekend.

Not a real fast car but a real fun car.

I bought the car when it was 2 years old. My son liked it so much he found the same car in black.

This was a car for the saying: It's more fun to drive a slow car fast.

My parents' 1968 Dodge Dart:
- 4 door bench seats
- 225 slant-6...Easiest engine to work on and gads of room under the hood
- live forever on a tank of gas

My first car, '86 Pontiac Firebird. Had a V-6, 5-speed, and t-tops.

Second place would be my '02 Honda S2000.

My 65. I stroked a 428 CJ block to 465 and put a built C6 behind it. I sold it in a fit of stoopidity 8 years ago. I would never ever be able to find one as solid.

My first car, a 1972 Audi 100 LS. It was in excellent condition when I sold it for $600 in 1991 or so.

It's threads like this that remind me not to sell our family's 1959 Impala convertible. Smile

I've had two 89 Preludes that I wouldn't mind having back, including the one with 4WS.

My 1998 Acura Integra Type R in Championship White. For the record I did not sell that car it was stolen and stripped. Loved that car.

My 1986 Jeep Comanche long bed. 4.0L in-line 6 cyl with a 5 speed manual tranny.

It was fun to drive no matter where you drove it.

'72 Dino 246 Spyder GTS. Sold it in a rage of Morelli electrics. I think I sold it for $25K, probably worth 10x that today.

That's too bad! The 246 was a much nicer-looking car than the 308, in my book, but like all Italian cars (mine included) their problems drove you crazy.
