i like them...but, they have the "hairdresser" stigma attached to them...like the SLK, and the Z3/Z4...
There is a guy who has a white one who lives near me...due to it being a late 90s one, he gets smoked by kids in S2000s.

Exactly. Im sick of seeing these douchebags driving around in these things like they have the only one in existance.

Your auto knowledge is astounding. I like some of the old Porsches nobody finds appealing really, like the 944 Turbo and the 928S. Would you do a Boxster over either of those?

Adonis, this is my buddy's 1955 Porsche 356 which he restored himself...

Saw some young Asian punk, (easily under 25 for sure), trying to drive one of these yesterday, although I gotta say I think it looks better in pictures. I couldnt even tell what it was at first becasue the trident was removed, some customized work done to it as well, but it def. still makes you look as it passes by.

There is a Maserati Quattroporte that drives past me in work every Saturday. The owner of the bar I work has a nice 911 and a Bentley Continental GT Speed.

Those Jag XJ's are so nice I really like them and reasonably cheap to pick up.

Looks good, sounds good, looks fast, sounds fast, but a BMW 1 series would embarass it.

My 1987 Ford Taurus had the nickname "Birth Control", because I wasn't going to get any play with that, unless she really liked me. In the winter the rear dampeners/shocks would collapse, and the door locks would all of a sudden unlock and lock, like the car was possessed.

The final blow? When it was sitting on the street and somebody put a tie-rod throught the windshield.

That one probably got better mileage. My old Buick got 10 gallons to the mile. Not a misprint.

Plymouth Horizon. Awesome car. Every time I looked at it I noticed another part had dropped off.

My first car was a 70 Chevelle SS. Picture is not mine but mine was exactly like this one. Had a rear main seal that would leak oil like crazy. I wish I still had that car, damn it!

Overload · « **Reply #94 on:** March 05, 2012, 01:18:05 PM »

1991 F-150 with a 351W.

Badass truck for what it was. Had a perfect bench seat for banging high school chicks.

Spot on. I wouldn't keep that car a week if I had it today, at least not for everyday use.

No shocks, and eventually, no brakes. Once a tire ripped off while I was driving full speed on a 2 lane highway.

Wholly shite. I had a tan one in college, NOT COOL.
