Other cars you like...

Since this area is for comparisons and other car discussions, I thought of an interesting question. To people that have a special spot for other cars, what other cars do you wish you could have? They can be new, older, discontinued, domestic, or import. They don't have to have been popular cars.

I have several cars in mind I wouldn't mind having and getting them fixed up. I just want several people to answer before I reveal mine for several reasons:
1. I don't want to be the only one to answer and look stupid. :o
2. I want to see if anybody has a unique or different answer. :cool:

I know my answer might go against the grain, so to speak.

Well...another car of interest would be the 2005 GTO. My husband's got one and it is pretty sweet.

2008 Accord Sedan, probaly my next car after the Fit. Im in love with it!
The interior is so big and airy, plus very solid and well put together. AHHHH the way that thick leather steering wheel feels!!! So nice!
Plus i would drop it, wheels ect.

Ok, I guess it's time for me to cough up my other car. I'm gonna sound so very different from what everybody else is offering.

*a 1994 Oldsmobile Achieva V6

Don't ask me why, I just like the car. There are several other Olds I like, too.

I think the CRXs are cool, too. However, I prefer the (for example) 1987 body style. My sister had one and I liked the boxier body.

i really wish i didn't have to sell my '88 CRX si about a year ago. if anything, i wish i could find another one in way better shape than mine was in (mine was ridiculously trashed when i got it).

as far as dream cars, i always wanted a dodge viper, i don't care what year or anything, it just has to be blue. :)

sadly i had to sell mine for a down payment on the fit :(

my crx was getting to the point where i thought it was just going to explode at any given second, so i needed the fit's reliability. i do miss it a lot though.

Any feasible car, then a Subaru 22b STi.
USDM only then either an '03-'05/'08 STi or the new Saturn Astra 3-door.

1970's Super Beetle project car that I can make into a pocket-rocket. Think about it. Porsche flat-4 or a K20/4 in an old Beetle.

OR

1974 Buick Riviera:




OR

1963-5 Buick Rivieria:



I drool over those Rivieras, especially the later 1st Gens.
:vtec:

I'd love an NSX, but I've still got a soft spot for 92-93 Accords
