Your Favorite Car?

[Brainchild]

At 36 I have had a few cars. And in hindsight would like to have some of them back. Who knew that a fiberglass hood for a superbee would be worth twice what I got out of the car? Oh well, So what was your favorite car?

Mine was a 72 Nova SS, 350 550horsepower, super t-10 4 speed, and 4:56 gears. turned 11.32 in the quarter mile, and drove it everyday. Thats my favorite car.
I also had a
73 Charger RT 440 magnum
68 Superbee 383 magnum
68 Chevelle small block 400
76 Vega 350 4 speed
69 Roadrunner 383
69 Charger 440 Police Interceptor

BTW, I'm a mechanic by trade, so gear head is in my blood.

Olds 350 Rocket w/milled heads 2.02 intake 1.96 exhaust, Edel Brock low rise Performer and a 1040 single pumper, add on a high flow filter, custom Headers and no emmisions custom exhaust that kicks out after the rear tires.

My favorite is any Corvette.

I've had Elcamino's. Camaro's, Mazda's, Toyota's and more...but I'm a diehard Corvette freak.

My favorite was my '73 Vette......454, 4 spd. Really a crude car by today's standards. A very fast car, and a decent handler, but rough riding , and noisy. Love that body style in a Vette. Still wish I had it.

My current ride is an '82 Supra. Obviously not as fast as the Vette was, but it's a lot more civilized. Handles well, and is a great and usable daily driver. 20 years old, and it's still in near mint condition.
