C5z. Ik there are much faster cars out there but there's just something about the lines and stance of the FRC c5's that I love.

Already have an f-body which is the poor mans vette.

300ZX Twin Turbo Nissan (90s Z32 chassis)
928 GTS Porsche (early 90s)
G8 GXP Pontiac (2009)
Monte Carlo SS (mid 80s)


1987 Monte SS. My first car. I still miss that damned thing. Every time I see a clean G-Body I wish I still had it. Sadly, nobody ever treats their first car nearly as well as the ones that come after.

I've pretty much owned everything affordable I've always wanted (93 RX7, 06 Subaru STI, 08 BMW Z4 M Coupe, 01 Lightning, 08 Jeep SRT8, Raptor).

Only ones on my list still would be a Buick Grand National, Chevelle SS and maybe a Viper GTS.

I might sell my dsg cobra for b/w second gen gts viper been wanting this car since I was 12 now 28. Other car that I would like that are attainable would be
srt-ram truck
srt-jeep
diesel ram truck
current style cts-v sedan
rx7 with v8 stuffed in there would be fun
c6 z06

but most likely it will be between c6 z06 or 2nd gen viper for replacement of cobra at some point if I am lucky.

Successful buisnessman in the 80s. None of them was a turbo 911. He always wanted one. But he always wanted alot of cars, then he got into boats... the money dried up after that LOL

Rule of thumb i have gathered from my reading is any older 911 is going to cost 25 grand. No matter what price you get it for they are maintenance pigs. By the time your done you have will spent 25. That being said i find the older ones really easy to work on if your mechanically inclined. Also they weight as much as taco.



What the **** is that! BADASS

yeah i'd be interested in an older 911 like late 80's....some no mans land action lol. that makes sense i mean if any one could afford them they wouldn't be considered exotic.......keep it on blocks in my garage lol :beer:
