VW Golf V6 4Motion... it's no 944, but there ain't many cars to keep up with that thing - esp. in the snow! VARoooooooom <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />

I almost agree:
Datsun 240Z (280 block, e31 240 head, early gearbox with servo syncros & direct drive 5th, 411 rear end in an R200 carrier, Nissan Comp shortened steering knuckles, konis, big sway bars, adjustable ride height collars from Carrera) pretty much what my first Z race car was in 1978 and now days drivable on the street.

Man, I didn't look for awhile and suddenly were talkin' Mopar's! Life is good again!
Sublime's cool, but I like the flash of the Plum Crazy! My "high school" car was a Marron 68 'Cuda Fastback. Only had a 318, but it was one sweet ride. Another fine lookin car is a 69ish GTX. Perfect car for the passion pits (drive-in-movies for you youngsters).
Don't get me wrong, the 951's a keeper, but summer nights were never better than in the ole Cuda! Come to think of it, the Cuda had a fold down rear seat, just like the 951!

Not sure what year 92-93-94? But a twin turbo Rx-7. Either Black/Black or Red/Black (I'm kinda' partial to this combo). Although a nice silver wouldn't hurt my feelings either.
I had an '83 Rx-7 in high school (man was I lucky) and an '87 after I graduated and always planned on buying the 3 generation (Ribs and I have this same affliction) but never got around to it.

Greaat cars! The best looking IMO was the 71 Cuda. Must have the 440 (over the Hemi even). Plum Crazy is the color to have. And don't forget the shaker hood.....

If I could only have one car, it would be an Audi S4 Avant. All wheel drive for the winter, performance for the summer, and more cargo room than the sedan. Fortunately I don't have to make that choice!

Great choice as well! I liked the Dark Green with White strip too! Only thing I didn't like was the early Camaro's dash - I think Ford had them beat with the gauges on the 70 Mach One's (another pony car favorite)!
