    How cute. This post reminds me of my ex girlfriend and her knowledge of cars.

    To your credit though, you can identify a Rolls Royce which is something she couldn't even do.

    I owned a green hornet hatchback. it was a '74. 232ci straight six and three on the floor. The car had a sticker price of $2878 and it had 3 options - an inside hood release, full wheel covers and an am radio. I put over 90,000 miles on that car and sold it in 1980

    The most expensive one. I would then sell it and buy a house and a reasonably priced new car.

    Cadillac ambulance. But it has to have all the equipment in the back and working siren and light.

    Only because they could jump off the ground when shifting into second gear... and still cut a 7 second 1/4 mile.

    There's something very satisfying about the shape of the 3rd generation F-body Firebirds.

    But I also appreciate the exotic Europeans:

    Speaking of AMC, how about a 315 factory HP '69 Hurst SC/Rambler Scrambler:

    i like elon musk, but somebody needs to tell him,
    we don't need electric lamborginis, we need electic volkswagon bugs,
    better still though would be an electric chevy van on two foot or narrower gauge rails.

    after the ecopocalyps, (not inevitable perhapse, but sure way more likely then not),
    i doubt very much the few remaining human descendents will be maintaining paved roads
    or gas stations, but i could see building my little trains from salvaged electric motors,
    batteries and solar cells.

    there is an electric van, i think its made by some outfit over in europe,
    but i forget who or where. i remember grabbing a video ad for it somewhere.

    (i say over in europe because i live in the u.s.,
    i seem to recall several of you live over there,
    maybe you know of more then one of these)
