List your favorite cars of all time

[JerseeJerry55]

Hey all

Good morning. Was curious what your favorite cars of all time are. Can be just one or could be a number of different ones. Mine are as follows:

1970 Buick GS/GS455 Stage 1

1968-1970.5 Camaro

1959 Impala 2 door (my Mom had one)

1968-1970 Roadrunner/GTX/70 Superbird

1970-1971 Cuda

1969 Super Bee

1967-1970 Mustang/Cougar

1970 Torino GT/Cobra/Cyclone (Cyclone Spoiler)

1968-1970 AMX

I have listed some such as Cougar, Cyclone due to fact that they were in my mind more or less the same.

Thanks for looking 

Jerry

I'd have to put my '69 AMX as one of my all time favorites. I had a 1:1 390 4 spd during the late '80's into the '90's and I miss it dearly.

It was a no frills, no options, go fast car! Believe it or not, it still had drum brakes on all fours and no power steering or brakes. The only reason I let it go was I being stationed at Fort Jackson S.C. and couldn't take the car with me. A fellow from upstate PA bought it from me, and that was the last time I saw it.

Others I could include:

1957-58 Plymouth Belvedere/Fury (Dad owned a '57)

1957-58 Studebaker Golden Hawk (family friend had one of those)

1968-69 AMC Javelin (Mom first had a '68, then later a brand new '69 SST)

I could name some others, but those popped into my mind first!

[Shardik]

Of cars that I have owned, my favorites were:

'67 Firebird convertible

'72 Karman  Ghia convertible

Cars that I wish I owned:

Toyota 2000 GT

'39 Plymouth coupe

Opel GT (actually the first car I ever drove)

[Dann Tier]

my favorite would be the Lamborghini Countach, then Pantera, 85 Porsche 911, BMC Mini cooper, and then, just about every Mopar from 1970 and older.

For a combination of styling and revolutionary technical aspects and just plain awesomeness, there's never been anything in the era after WWII, in my estimation, like the 1954-57 Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing.

There have been plenty of others that are equally as awesome since then, but this is my fave.

I have a lot that I like, but my all-time favorite is the 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda Convertible. As I have gotten older, I would prefer it to have an automatic transmission bolted to either a Hemi or 440.

[Jon Cole]

Just two.


 

[bbowser]

Wow Jon, one end of the spectrum to the other !  Interesting topic, most seem to gravitate towards cars they owned or wished they still had, that emotional connection we gearheads have towards our vehicles.  In that vein, the car I learned to drive in, '64 Grand Prix, and a '65 Dodge van - the kind where you sit over the front wheel and the steering wheel is almost flat in front of you like a bus.  Man I had fun in that thing!

[Lizard Racing]

Some of these lists are downright exotic.

My all-time favorite has to be Triumph Spitfire, especially a 1969 Mk. III with a factory hard top.  The rose-colored glasses may be kicking in.

There is one of these for sale at RK Motors right now. It looks like it may be this exact one.
