I had a 70 AMX 390 Penske Hurst with side pipes ram air Hood 2 tone,,,1 of 8 made.. wish I had it to day In fair c would be worth over 200000 bucks.. man that was a car.. 1 of only 2 new cars I have Owned..
Best truck I have Own was a 65 GMC Van had a stroked 337 Chevy with a Tunnel ram.. roller cam and it would pull 6 foot Wheelys run 10.15 in the 1/4 mile.. Bad a$$ van....
1978 Pontiac Formula Firebird, got it for graduating High school and it had a blown engine. Spent the summer earning money to build/rebuild it.
350 .030, double humps, Reed 280 Torque Master cam, Edelbrock Performer RPM, Carter AFB carb.
Not crazy fast, but surprising. Had it up over 140 mph a couple times and she was still pulling. I miss that car, I sold it way too cheap. She was surprisingly easy on gas but she did need premium.
Best car ever owned is a very modest1999 Isuzu rodeo 5 spd 4wd..........truly the ride I could not kill and took very little maintenance that I couldn't do.
Drove it as a father raising two active kids.......

Not very manly,huh?
Your best car Is by Your choice... A friend had a Pinto and he loved that car..His Mom made him sale it when the Gas tank thing came up .. He cried I mean He Cried for real...
'87 Camaro. Only thing that was cool were the 2 15" subs in the back. Was great until a blew out the glass on the lift gate.
My old car Cavaler drift car For Sale (Still have it) has 2 15s on 2 amps 4 6by9 2 5by7 in the doors.. never brock Glass but some thing all was is lose...
I had 94 2.2 4 cylinder Beretta that was an absolute tank. You couldn't get that thing stuck anywhere, got good fuel milage, and rode great. You could barely hear the thing running, it had that typical 2.2 tick, but other than that, nothing out of the ordinary. I miss that old piece, it was a great work car.
My lightning has treated me well too. I really love the sound of that surpercharger. It's kinda hard to keep your foot out of it.
I had a 1965 - 440 rambler conv ( red ) with a white top when I first got married .... I remember it had 2 spots on either side of the 6 cyl engine .... I think it was also put in a boat & could run the other direction ....Rebuit the motor & trans & had a new top put on it .... When my wife n I split she sold the car ... Broke my heart loosing that car .... Didnt miss the wife too much as I recall ....
My favorite car I ever had was a 1976 Pontiac Trans Am. It had a 455 and was pretty bad ass. But the 2 best vehicles I've had are 1999 Gmc pickup and 2001 Gmc one ton van. The pickup had 300,000 miles when I got rid of it and the van has 348,000 miles on it and still is my work van driven Dailey.
My first car was a 2001 Ford Focus (I got it in 2007) and that thing was a champion. I rear ended a van at 50 MPH and rebuilt it from a car I found at the scrap yard. I rolled it onto its side after after trying to drift in a snowstorm and going over a snow bank. I still got 100k out of it in the 3-4 years I had it, and the only maintenance was fixing stuff that I broke myself. Then when it finally had a somewhat terminal issue (It was severely damaged from a house fire at the house next door to my old apartment) I brought it out into a field and took jumps with it and everything and I still couldn't kill it. Eventually we entered it into an enduro race where you had to sign over your car as the entry fee (the track made money by scrapping all the cars and it paid $3000 to win, had like 80 cars) and it ran for like 130 laps out of 200 but ended up getting blind sided by a 1995 Ford Taurus wagon - what a horrible way to die.

I had an 86' Cutlass Ciera station wagon with the faux woodgrain on it. The car was a tank. 18 year old me thought it would be funny to tint the windows on it. Then I thought it would be even funnier to lower it. Then, after it was lowered, the stock wheels looked silly, so I got some alloy tuner wheels. The headliner fell down, so I put some shag carpeting up in it's place.
It was gaudy as hell, but I loved that car. When it finally quit running, I was sad, but it was time to move on.
Someday in the future, I'd like to build a twin turbo all wheel drive fire-breathing monster of an 86' Cutlass Ciera Wagon.
