Cool cars

Not this time, look closer, it is an Auto Transporter delivering a half dozen new Performance Cars to the Chevrolet Dealer back in 1969. And the one being unloaded in the Pick is a Yenko Camaro. Worth a Dump Truck full of money these days if it is a matching numbers survivor.

true, but can't help myself, for our chevy friends
Not my thing though, Boss 302, 429, 65,67 fastback
now were talking
 
I will give them the respect they deserve but I will never covet nor own one.
Ford blue is a kin to a religion.
Faithful all the way.
And the longer and twistier the way, the better.
 
There's a whole list of cars that I'd love to own, off the top of my head a Jag E Type, mid 60's Mustang, a Volvo P1800, a late 40's GMC 1/2 ton or Ford for that matter and the list goes on and on. There's too many fun cars to be limited to one brand
 
Can't argue that there are many cars to like.
If money were no object, I'd have a nice stable with these as the headliners, in no particular order.
Ho, and amazing man cave multi level garage to store them in and hang out in.

- I'll call the Jag but make mine a more modern F-type
- M-2 or M-3 or M-4 GTS from the BMW lot, or all three
- Aston Martin V-12 Vantage, the manual shift one
- AMG GTS
- Porsche 911 GT3 manual shifter
- Modern Shelby GT 350 and 350R pair
- Focus RS and Focus ST pair
- 2013 and 70 Boss 302 pair
- Original or continuation 427 Shelby Cobra, and a 289, or both
- 66 and 67 fastback pro touring Mustangs from Detroit Speed, or Ring brothers, or two from each builder
- MX5 Miata, here I would consider accepting a Chevy product for one of those with the GM engine swapped
- Morgan roadster
- Authentic 65 Shelby GT 350 or GT 350R or both
- 69 or 70 Boss 429
- 2007 - 2009 GT500
- 2013 - 2014 GT500
- 60's - 70's Bronco with Detroit Speed restomod treatment

Maybe there is a new thread here. What would be your top ten (or 20) cars? or something like that.
Anyway, I would not have GM (save exception noted above) or Mopar products just because.
I'll give them respect but will not own one. Don't follow them, don't know their history, don't really care.
