...2009 NSX-T... all the above...errr.. below


Based on the Honda reputation from the old (MR) NSX, probably true.  A little too expensive, though.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

Right now.... very relevant as I'm getting another car soon...

97-01 Prelude
E36 328i/iS
S14 240SX
P11 G20
EM1 Civic Si
DC2 Integra GS-R

If I decided to finance
G35 Coupe
E36 M3

Can't think of 2 more, everything else is too big, too impractical, too expensive or too ugly

These are in no particular order:

1. BMW M3 (E46)
2. Honda S2000
3. Mazda Miata (NB)
4. BMW 128i
5. BMW 330i (E46)
6. BMW 325i (E30 or E36)
7. VW GTI
8. BMW 540i (E39)
9. Porsche 944
10. Mini Cooper S

Damn, I'm such a fanboy. I put cars with a pretty wide price range on there because I'll probably be able to spend more money on a car than I'd really be willing to.

I split this into two lists for new / late-model used and older project cars. 

...good idea.

Mine are.

New:

'09 Ranger
'09 Mustang GT (California Edition) I saw a black one in the local Ford dealer.  It looks great!
'05-'06 Lincoln LS (V8)
'10 Fusion Hybrid
'09 Lancer Evo - I just love  the way it looks.

Old:

'70 Boss 302
'67 Sunbeam Tiger Mk. II
'67 Ford Bronco (project)
'63 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible (red) - preferably with the 427 big block
'63 Pontiac Parisienne Convertible (white) - arguably, one of the prettiest cars of the '60s

Good choice :ohyeah:.  I do believe that, sometime in the future, it will be looked back on as an iconic design.

"New Edge" design philosophy influenced the entire industry for several years subsequent to the introduction in the late '90s on the Ka and Couger.

Yes. Either just before emissions ('73-'74) with the SPICA FI, or well after EFI was introduced (so, late '80s or so). In red. If it's a later car, I'll try to make it look like an earlier car. This is something I'm 7/10 serious about, which is pretty good for me. :lol:  :ohyeah:

Go 72 or older just to avoid the 5 MPH bumpers.

Imo, the more desirable is the pre '71 with Webbers and a 'round' tail.  I've not heard good things about the SPICA FI.  I'll post some pictures of my '70; though it's in sad disrepair and disassemble.
