This blog came to me on my short and speedy commute home, after following a Dodge Viper and a Lamborghini Gallardo out of the parking lot in my Chevy hatchback.
The idea behind the blog would be to learn a bit more about each other, have some fun, and let the world know what some of your favorite things are. If this blog works out, some of the other ideas top 5: porn stars, books, actresses, cartoon characters, etc, etc.
Anyways, my thought while driving home was, "If I could get five cars, what would I get?" So, here, in no particular order, are my five cars. What are yours?
Tesla Roadster - slick, all-electric sports car.
1987 Buick (Grand National) GNX - produced by McLaren, it was a powerhouse designed to closeout the line.
Harley Davidson Night Rod - sounds like something that could land you on a registry, but instead is a low, sleek motorcycle.
Ariel Atom - unbelievable power in a small package (not your pants). I loved it warping Jeremy Clarksons face
and lastly, a blast from the past (actually, from well before I was born), but my parents owned one, and for a short while, it was mine. The design was more function than form, but the simplicity made it so that even a mildly handy teenage could get it running after it sat in the garage for a really long time. I talking about the:
Volkswagen Thing It had interchangeable roof (this was the soft, convertible top, there was also a hard top), the doors were removable, simple air-cooled rear engine, and the front was not only storage space, but it was designed to be packed with ice and beer, there were even drain plugs to empty it out.
The Buick is the only decent one there. And that Harley is the ugliest lookin bike I've ever scene. The only car I've ever truly wanted - 1968 Ford Mustang Coupe.
Back in College, I owned this car. Not this one exactly, mine was a lot rougher. I paid 300 dollars for it. The convertible top was so far gone, I used a shower curtain to cover it in the event of rain or snow. The heating system had disintegrated requiring a heavy parka and gloves for winter driving. The original carpeting had been replaced with a living room shag. The bad orange paint job covered a shit load of bondo and rust. Naturally, it's signature nose cone had been bashed in. It rarely started other than by push start. Which was actually fairly easy to do.
However, as big of a piece of shit it may have been, with the top down, women loved it. Not me so much, but they all wanted a ride in "Alpha". (Named by one of it's girlfriends.) Ah, those were the days.
Anyone had a look at the vehicles Dodge have brought out of retirement. I find that a lot of people don't like them. I actually think the Dodge Challenger looks pretty badass. My dad had one when I was a kid, I believe a '70:
they got lamer as the 70's went on, but they've come back with this:
I think its a sweet redone version of that older body style.
Had one of these back in highschool, fuckin wicced sicc with a 15 inch power fosgate in a bandpass box and a high end alpine system....
85 cadillac Fleetwood Brougham! hell yeah had one of these too, slower n shit tho, what ya get for 200 dollars. But a fuckin smooth ride and looked good as hell
Mercury Bobcat, fell in love with this car when i lived by chicago. From what i heard these cars were pretty badass for thier size.
Id love me a Sucker Punch Sally motorcycle (custom built harleys and shit)
And lastly id love to have a camper .... this one would do Woooooooonderfull!
I never really liked Akira as much as i was apparently expected to, but the bike wasnt so bad. And then i saw this which had been inspired by it. Fucking porn.
A glorified Pinto with a 4 cyl sewing machine motor. Badass perhaps in the sense that in a rear end collision you stood a good chance to explode.
i was told these lil fuckers were like muscle cars of the hatchback, thats like JD being king of the retards, not saying much, but the one i had? Felt like i was in a roller coaster everywhere i went, so it was hella fun to roll around in...

You just got less gay in my eyes. You also have the same car as me. Does that make me more gay?
Talking of cop cars - 1968 Ford Galaxie - popularised in the KLF's music video. Sweet!

NICE!!
Don't like many new cars at all...in terms of looks anyway. They just don't have any character.
Both Paki cars. Pakis have good taste in cars.

^i saw one of these yesterday and nearly broke my neck straining to keep gawking as it drove away <3
yes, rest is a no-no! the other porsche for the wrong color scheme. you'd want the green with black details.
Though i would have to put the window wipers on the side windows as i would always have that beast sideways.
Honda NSX
I would be dead within 15-20 minutes of starting this car up.
Suzuki GSX R 1000
