This was a bit of an interesting article. Sad thing is that I have owned 3 of the vehicles on the list, and still have 2 of them.

I have been on a hunt for a 4th one on the list. It has been a bit elusive.

Not to sidetrack your thread. I saw this today:

Is it sad that I have owned 4 of the vehicles on that list?

I've had none of those cars. There were a couple I would mind getting my hands on though.

Just remember all of our 4x4 can crush those cars :brody:

Actually just sold my last on off that list recently. Sold a Scout a few weeks ago. Only one I really wish I had back was the Alfa, but I don't want the GTV (of course I would take one in a heart beat...). Would love another GTV/6 that I could drop a 3.0L into that has twin turbos. God, I miss that car.

I plan to keep both my Scout II and my 240Z forever. The 240Z is the first car I remember ever thinking "that car is cool". I was about 4 years old, and it belonged to my dad's friend. I loved going to visit him just to look at the car. I always said I would eventually own one. The Scout that I own has a lot of personal/family history. It is a keeper as well.

I also had a couple Opel GT's, but those were just out of highschool, so it has been a while. They were a total blast to drive and cheap at the time (like $200). They were a PITA to work on and I really don't miss them. The only way I would drive one again would be with an engine swap, likely from a Miata or a Nissan 240sx since they are RWD and 4 cylinder. Wedging anything else in is almost impossible.
