jacksonbart Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Could be your ride that you have today or one you had. So which one? I hope no one chooses this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedball Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 My first was a 68' Dodge Charger R/T with a 440 Magnum. (Picture is not my car) This car could pass everything but a gas station, I blew the motor idling in traffic then sold it to a junkyard for $50.00.

Guest " " Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 My 2000 Mustang was cool, till my daughter started drivng, then it became her cool car. My 2000 Audi TT then became my new cool car. My wife started to eye it, so bough her an expidition. My son soon got his licesne and started to eye the Audi, so took him out and got him a Kia with a complete sports package. Shortly there after, my youngest son go his license and also wanted the keys to the Audi. A trip to maine to pickup a 96 Camaro Z28, with a full sports package, T-Tops, and 31K miles solved that problem. So the Audio TT remains my cool car, for now anyway.

capo72 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I bought this when I was 19 and restored it from the ground up. 15 years later, it is still sitting in my garage. Unfortunaltely it does not get driven that much. At the time I bought it, I never gave it much thought, but it has been a terrific investment.

Ray Garrison Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I had a Mercur XR4Ti (turbocharged 2 door sport couple built by Ford in Kohn, Germany) that I loved. Was in a parking lot in the Lake Lillinonah marina on New Years Eve doing doughnuts with a buddy, threw the fan belt without noticing. Engine eventually overheated to the point where it died. Opened hood, turbo housing was glowing bright bright cherry red. Threw snow on it till it cooled down. Next day found turbo waste gate had welded shut. Drove the car anyway for awhile... turbo boost was awsome with gate welded shut. Eventually holed a piston. Traded car toward a Subaru SVX. Both were very unusual cars, never saw many on the road when driving them. Both performed well. Liked SVX better. SVX totaled in t-bone collision (not my fault) in 2002. Since then have been driving boring cars, currently 2006 Jetta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khorn51 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 My coolest car would be the 1952 deluxe 23 window vw bus bought 17 years ago and still have it. I think it,s rarer than my 60 cornwall or 51 khorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
33klfan Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 My first car was a 1993 cutlass supreme, which i still am driving a couple years later. I used to hate it before it was mine. Now i like it. Nice solid car. 155,000 miles and it's still going strong. I wish it had a little more power though. My dad could fill in here. I know he's had his share of old cars from GTO's, camaro's, and many more. A couple years ago he finally got an old car again. It's the coolest car we've had since i was born/remember. It's a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo 4 speed with a 400 small block. It's a nice rippin' machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Not exactly what most people (or me, for that matter) would call "cool," but its a fun, pretty rare car (less than 20,000 built from 96-99) Sounds pretty good with an opened up V8 under the hood. I get lots of confused looks as to why my Taurus rumbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jheis Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 The one that got away, was a 1962 Jaguar 3.8L MK II I had when I was 19 [:'(]. Gun metal silver with red leather, perfect with 30K miles. Current ride's not bad, though. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
videomagician Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Current "Project Car": 1972 Dodge Challenger Here's some video of a "Spec" show I started a few years back, before the glut of reality car shows. Got busy with real work and still haven't finished the show or the car. Real Restorations Television Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
