What is your fav car?

[Lurch]

 

Sounds like you guys (sweden) are pretty much getting raped on everything as far as prices go, especially new cars. Strike that, swedish currency isn't worth sh*t. And as far as pricing a Muscle Car, you can't just clasify them as "regular" or "nice." Specific engines and option codes are going to go for way more than a normal identical looking small block car sitting next to them. Also, I'd bet money that most of those special engined cars are sitting here in the States, not Sweden. You guys having tons of basic-engined yank tanks doesn't mean sh*t, frankly.

Sure is, but I didn't have much of a choice when the dude selling it was asking ~$600.

Still not a good model to judge the whole E34 gen by.

Nice to see someone post a proper dream car (288 GTO) rather than the last two pages mainly consisting of dreary sh*te and samey muscle.

Your right about Specific engines and option codes being priced Higher than a less rare or base like

an 1971 SS 454 LS-6 option will cost more than one with a 350 small block and an automatic

transmition.

Well you don't judge a car just based on its performance too. My right leg goes numb after 3 hour trips in that thing, and the dash is all WW2 oldschool.

If only owning my favourite cars was that easy to achieve.

Ok, BMW E34 525i 24V - happy? And yes they are impressive! My grandfather ([ * ]R.i.p) and my dad's brother used to drive the 525i 24V. It wuz awesome, but well my grandfather died in 2008 and my uncle just got a E32 735i.

You need at least a 525i/5 to have fun with an E34. If only my 530iA was a 540i/6 M

I have fun in my WJ, my e34 is a cheap beater that I drive to save bux on fuel.

True, although I'd just get a 340 or 440 hemi and drop it into it, I don't care much for matching numbers. Saw a 1970 440 go for 1200$ in a ad the other day.

 

I also rounded of the exchange rate from 7 kr to the dollar to 5kr to the dollar to make it easier to calculate, which might explain the price a bit. So a new 09 Camaro SS is 50.000 to be exact, which is about the price of a mint condition, right years and motors mopar.

Has anyone else thought that the mirrors on the Ferrari 288 GTO look as wierd as hell? I've never noticed it before, but I think they're way too tall for the car.

[Lurch]

Never noticed it before, but you're right, they do look pretty hideous.

So you only have to look right and left at a glance instead of having to crane your neck downwards.

 

My 2 p on that anyways

AMERICAN CARS, I just am fond of them to no end, well, not ALL and clearly like modcrn music, modern cars lack true vision and excitement...they are cookie cutter bland. Most foreign cars are also suffering this. I saw an ad for the new Ford SHO, looks the same as the original design, a stretched out VW Beetle... Round on all sides, nothing notable in it's design. There's no way it will inspire me, not like the Dodge Charger. I'm seeing a few of the new Camaros on the road, they'd be fun to drive, and the Dodge Challenger is awesome. New Mustang is snazzy. It's partly that retro design inspiring the basis.

 

Outside of those, Luxury along with the performance angle, clearly the EXOTICs and Rolls Royces and Bentleys. Only the best BMWs I really like and Mercedes

you're a tool.

I'm sorry, I'm a tool for being attacked for stating what my favourite car is. I would say the real tool here is the one that has enough time on their hands to post over 2,600 posts on a video game forum.

Edited August 29, 2009 by bldrgnslyr

That's still less than 2 posts per day,

 

If I said my favourite car was a holden barina because I could mod the hell out of it, you'd probably think I was a tool.

Theres a difference there, the barina actually is sh*t, the VP isn't, that was just -slash's opinion. I myself find it to be a very nice car, which is MY opinion, but it can be made even better by modding, which is what most people do with it, much the same as a 240sx, for example. People here still cant realize this topics about what everyones favourite car is, not how stupid someones opinion is because they dont agree with it.

Exactly, why get mad when he states his opinion that its sh*t.

 

You obviously dont think so, but you get all hurt because he disagrees.

 

In all reality its not a big deal at all, diffferences in opinions is what makes the world turn.

[-slash]

OK guys, I would just like to formally apologise to the guy who smashed his keyboard with his head (much in the same way his mother would have smashed him in the head with a brick as a small child) to come up with a username, and offer a picture of this premium example of a VP in order to seek his forgiveness.

 

 

Perhaps one day I may own such a fine example of Australian engineering. (or should we really be giving the credit to the Europeans who Holden bought the design off? I'm not sure)

 

 

I hope this ends this dark chapter in vehicle chat history.
