Popular Post BuzzArd Posted August 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2019 If we’re sticking to the rules... (ehem.... 1980 and newer?) I’ll go with the lowly FJ40. I have the classics I want, but they’re WAY older than 1980. And i’ve always wanted one of these. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runner ups: Ferrari 288 GTO and a mid 2000's era Ford GT I was torn between the 959 and Testarossa for automotive modern/classic pick. I was fortunate to see 2 959's drive by me last year within a few hundred yards on a slow road! There is a Porsche repair shop near my house that was overhauling two and they must've been shaking them down. Only time ever have I seen one on the road. They look funny without the engine in them. Sit so much higher! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueRidgeFly Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 So many great cars and bikes I dream about, but I miss my 94 Mazda Miata kinda like this one — roll bar, Koni shocks, JR swaybars, etc etc etc. Cheap, trouble free, handled better than anything I’ve ever driven... Fun! ???? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspaul Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Lots of great choices but for me would be the latest Bentley Flying Spur with a v8 not the w12 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooth, powerful, but rather wanting in the handling department. One of the first bikes that came to mind for this thread for me was the 1983 CB1100F, even though I've never ridden one. I have ridden the 900F and was always impressed, so I can't imagine the 1100 to be a let down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitchen Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 There is a photographer I know who specializes in nothing but automotive photography, and of the golden age of the automobile. He pretty much shoots 1920s to 1950s cars, some of which only 2 or 3 were ever made. In his portfolio the 1930 Mercedes Benz SSK is one of my favorites! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillys Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Something I could buy right now: 2000 Acura Type R in championship white. This car would not stay in the garage, I'd get this one for the track, such a fun car to drive. Something I could probably afford down the road, Porsche 964 Carrera RS 3.8. This car would probably spend a bit more time in the garage, but would definitely take it out for track days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold it when I moved to Singapore and still kicking myself about it. Best handling car I’ve ever driven. Light, mid-engined and no power steering to dilute feedback through the wheel; it was the epitome of seat of the pants driving feel. When I was a 17 year old oik, working at an ice cream factory, the boss said one day "can you go up to Leekes (a store) to get more scoops? Take the MR2". The only thing I'd driven previously was my parents' shitty Volvo 240 GL estate. I must admit...I broke the speed limit...with a big shit eating grin on my face. Nice motor. Worth a fortune now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavLew79 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Got mine! 1996 Merc SL500. 5L V8. All the sensors and electronics under the sun. Who knew reverse parking sensors were a thing in '96! But I'd really like a Nissan Skyline R34 GTR, or a Subaru Impreza 22B, ..but they're £100k+? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
