Vehicle Appreciation Thread

Cause we were blocking up the unhappy thread with all our awesome and super happy car talk, here's a thread to put it all in.

Myself I used to love Aussie muscle cars, but as I've grow older my tastes have refined (least i like to believe lol)

A few cars I'd like to get my hands on.

[coolbreeze]

For me it's all about muscle cars. 

Two of my dream cars are:

The 69 GTO


The 77 Trans Am


(I love Pontiac)

[Rong]

Dat transam, reminds me of smokey and the bandit.

Dem GTO's

Aussie version I got a soft spot for.


The nightriders stolen pursuit in madmax.

I love Pontiacs too! When I was a kid my fav car was the Trans Am from 1979. They are just GORGEOUS!



Later on it dropped to third place in my top 5  I got hooked to Challenger from the 70 and then (and currently) my fav muscle car became the Road Runner from '72. Its soooo BADASS.

Those cars in their whole are just screaming "From another time." If I regret for one thing that would be that I was not born in the US during the 50s so I would be in my 20s during the 70. That was the greatest era ever.

That's a beautiful car  Look at that motor.

I never liked the front end on the 79 for some reason. 

More Trans Am:

I also liked the look of the last gen TA WS6.


We had the GTO come back too, but it was just a re-badged Holden Monaro.

What about the ULTIMATE evil - a Chevelle SS with 572

In my opinion this is the best V8 engine ever created.

Can't go wrong with a Chevy Big Block.

[Rong]

The Monaro/GTO is a nice car with that LS2.

I might get a bike next year. For now I have lots of plans for my Holden
