Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or present)

This thread needs more pictures, not just names....
I am still working on my dad for his 1993 RX-7 Touring Twin Turbo 5 speed.... I would settle for a garage with just that and a SVX...

pictures are from a car show here in Wichita last summer, it was 115 degrees



The RX-7 and Impala SS are my dads, and of course that beauty in the middle is mine 90's cars FTW

Hehe I keep getting tempted by those SS Impalas. They look so menacing and American.

Not trying to derail, but that one is for sale, and it's just as fun as you think.

Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or future)

One with no rust
Like actually no rust, not even surface rust!

P.S. isn't now and present the same thing?

Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or present)

This one should happen within a couple years (SVX as the DD to support having it)


One of these for the fiance so we have a practical family car that still handles decent and doesn't bore me to death on trips

Re: Cars that you want (now, past, or present)

Sometimes, I miss this car:





I'm replacing my 1994 850 with one of these, soon. (Had a 92 Miata before and loved it. Only sold it because it was too rusty.):



Next new car purchase:



A few years down the road, when the V70 is replaced, this may be a possibility:

(TDI)


Of course, I have my dream cars:






Because I'll never find a perfect one:

or a

Yeah, I'm weird!


Edit: I should have included an Exige or something for a track beast!

This is what will be replacing the SVX at some point when things settle down.



But hopefully in this color...
