I don't own any of these cars any longer, but wish I did. Sold the black big block 427/400 hp '67 Corvette Convertible for $40,000 and it's easily worth double to triple that now. Owned the '68 Shelby GT350 Convertible from 1987 to 1991 and sold it for $30,000. That car fetches $100,000 to $150,000 now. BTW, the Ferrari California Spyder was a replica built by the same company that built the cars for the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Had a tube chassis, fiberglass body and a 289 Ford engine with 4 2bbl Webers.

From: On the road...
The wife and I are both 27 going on 28.
We've owned:
'94 Buick Century (POS)
'96 Chevy Beretta (junk)
'00 GMC Sonoma (great truck, lease ended)
'01 Pontiac Sunfire (junk - owned only for 5 months)
'01 Ford Focus ZX3 (the best econobox I've owned next to the Fit)
'04 Pontiac Grand Am (lemon)
'06 Mazda3 GT (great little car, but started falling apart after a year)
'06 Chevy Malibu (meh, sold to inlaws)
'06 Toyota Tacoma (best truck I've owned to date, sold because wife won't drive manual)
'07 Toyota Tundra (good truck, a little too big for me, thirsty)
'08 Honda CR-V (great little CUV, AWD and 28mpg)
'09 Honda Accord (awesome car with the 6-6, but squeaks and rattles pissed me off)
'11 Honda Pilot (momma's current ride that she loves)
'11 Honda Fit (my current DD)
My obsession for cars has rubbed off on my wife so much that we typically trade every 2-3 years now. We've switched from GM junk to reliable (and typically rattle-free japanese cars) and plan on keeping it that way for a while (aside from my Bimmer I plan to purchase when I get my board certification!)
