I know many of us are diehard Mopar or no car people ......but most of us are love with cars in general......I am as diehard Mopar as they come, I have one for a daily driver and I live mopar.

However there has always been one non-mopar car that has always caught my attention since I was very young .....I have had thoughts over the years to acquire one but I don't really want to stock parts and learn another car when I specialize in A-bodies now.

so what is that one car that has always caught your attention and given you temptations to get one

for me its a Saab 96 ...I have always been captivated by these Swedish meatballs since I first saw one.....I will probably never get one considering their rarity in middle America but I still like to see them :D

Probably the 1978 Bandit Edition Trans Am. Handles great, decent power and available with a FOUR SPEED.

This is a really cool car as far as I am concerned even if it is a VW

One of my favorite non-mopars is a Faux-par (lol) The rebadged mitsu truck known as the D50.

1st Gen D50's are the ones I like the most, especially with the rare optional Turbo Diesel engine (which mine had once upon a time) and the '83/84 Sport optioned Quad Headlight Grille (85/86 had a different quad headlight grille)




Mine (well, the only thing Mitsu about it any more, happens to be some of the sheet metal, lol) was once one of those Power-Ram 50 Sport optioned trucks, with every option from Power Steering to A/C, including the "Gauge Pack" Center Console & Tach, Cargo Light, Bucket Seats (Rare option), Sport Steering Wheel, 4-speed variable delay wipers, etc





She's fugly as sin, nobody makes body parts for them anymore, rust free used parts no longer exist. Not to mention, everyone asks me if I put a 350 in it :banghead:
 
I frequent a few MOPAR websites, and have owned my 65 Barracuda for over 10 years but I'm originally a Ford guy. 66 Mustangs have always been my other cars outside of MOPAR. I have a few MOPAR parts on the Mustang and a few Ford parts on the Barracuda.

Gotta go with the '72. That's the year they had everything worked out right, just before they started getting heavy.

There's a lot of cars I'd love to have but if I had to pick one it would be the Chaparral 2e. If I won some super lotto or married a dentist I could gèt a continuation version -> http://www.chaparralcars.com/2e.php

This was years ahead of everyone else.
