Like everyone I have to say that I am definitely a Mopar guy first and foremost and currently have something like 11 of them (2 Ebodies, 1 B body, 1 A body, 10 Challenger RT, 01 Viper, 52 Dodge pu, 01 1500, 14 2500, 05 Durango, 09 Caliber). I have owned quite a variety of cars over the years to include 2 Vettes, a BMW, an Audi (complete POS), a number of Japanese cars and a couple of Ford PU's when I was young. I have worked on a lot more and even wider variety. My dad was a Ford guy and I had to work on them which caused me to grow up hating them for the most part. All that said, I can admire and respect most cars and understand why people love them. Some notable cars would be the early 70's transams (like the instrument clusters), late 60's early 70s GTOs and Avantis. There are some European cars which are cool but most are far outside anything I could afford.
I have been thinking for a long time about getting a Triumph Spitfire, I don't know why I want one but I do. I think I just need to drive one and get it out of my system. My wife commented that we don't have any convertibles so that got me thinking about the Triumph. I have looked at Fiat 124's and MGs as well but I like the lines of the Spitfire better.
We just bought a Subaru Forester for my wife and I have to say it seems like a very good car. I thought about getting a Porsche but cannot bring myself to do it. I really like the Mercedes SL550 but the retractable hard tops can be a ***** to fix not to mention stupid expensive.
All in all, I like cars that I can potentially afford which means older and used. Not that I don't like new cars, just can't afford them without selling off some of what I have which I don't want to do.
