GM car you'd love to own

Featured Replies

Hey, everyone is down in the dumps here and it seems sometimes like we whine or talk politics more than we talk cars.

Rules of the thread...used GM (only, no non GM) cars you'd like to own. Any car, any era. This is the thread for dreams.

Snazzy, El Capitan.

This is a given...

NOTHING looks better to me than a 60's Pontiac ragtop....NOTHING...

WOW...thanks!

I have alot that I would love to own... I have picked some of my favorites that aside of one or two of them I actually could afford, so here is my very odd list...

That's the first car that came to my mind, though I would be tormented by owning one. On one hand, I would want to drive it ALL THE TIME. On the other hand, that would be a stupid thing to do. lol

The first one is mine lol

I'd love to post 363 photos in this thread, but some folks still have 56k.

Seriously. We need to get over the blues, and the only way to do it is with our mutual passion for cars.

Dont laugh, one of these sold for $7000+ last year after gas shot up.

1971_Buick_Estate_Wagon.jpg

:lol:

sorry

:mellow:

Hmmm...so many.

For oldies, a '63 Riviera, '66 Riviera, '69-70 Grand Prix, '67-70 Eldorado, '66-67 Toronado, '62 Starfire, '62-68 Grand Prix, '61 bubble top B-bodys, '63-67 Corvette, etc.

Of the '70s, pretty much anything A-, B-, C-, E-, F-, or G- body from '71-72..with my favorites being the B-body coupes and convertibles, the Riviera, and the A-body coupes. Or later, a '77-79 Impala/Caprice coupe or other B- body 2dr.

For the big '80s, I'm a fan of the Hurst Olds and 442, MC SS, Grand Prix 2+2, Trans Am GTA, Camaro IROC-Z, Regal T-Types and GNs.

So many...

For current GMs---the G8 GT or GXP, Camaro SS, any CTS, any Corvette, Solstice, Sky..

I actually saw a 61-61 Bubbletop down in Portsmouth, Ohio on Monday.'

Looked VERY solid...

Monte Carlo SS Areo & Pontiac Areo

WOW, I love the White Monte Carlo SS Areo and have always wanted to own one. The surprising thing is the Pontiac Grand Prix Areo, I have never seen one of these.

Did GM really make this car? Comments on the reality of this Pontiac?

Well sure they're real, dfelt. In fact, I posted a picture here of one with a 454 in it from my trip to Ocean City, MD last month.

http://www.cheersandgears.com/index.php?sh...20&start=20

Thanks, funny I now see that car, but it never registered with me with all the other lovely cars that were posted. To me it does look a bit strange, but for every person there is a car waiting for them. :) Thanks Ocnlu.

No problemo, sir!

A blue 69 Camaro just like that ran around when I was a kid growing up in Wisconsin.

To be back in the day...

And Sordfish...saw a 63 Split yesterday, if I get a chance I'll post photographs.

Chris

God, look at that hot new Camaro and then look at the '04 GTO.

God, look at that hot new Camaro and then look at the '04 GTO.

I think I'd rather have the GTO.

  • Author

...The GTO is more refined and would fit your image better.

Which is why it would be cool if we still had the old GM, where you got what you wanted.

Chris

The G8 and Ute have already been posted. Here are a few more I'd like to own:

Bobo, I was out front of my house the other day...and the most beuatiful, clean and sweet Aurora drove by, it was silver and NICE!

Chris

i had three new camaro spottings yesterday. including one coming at me head on. the low roof is even more dramatic and stylish when the car is coming right at you. the look is to die for and very menacing.

the styling is amazing on that car. even after decades of all the stylish GM metal, i think even GM outdid itself this time on the new camaro. i love the 04 GTO quite a bit from styling, but it just isn't even in the same class as the new camaro as far as jaw dropping looks.

i would love to see a new rwd impala as bold as this camaro. unfortunately the board will be forced to give us some plug in appliance like version of it.

Edited by regfootball

Here you go, GM's plug-in future!

well i would like a:

1960 348 3x2bbl Impala sport coupe

1961 389 tripower catalina

1962 bel air 409

1964 buick wildcat 425

1966 L72 Impala

1966 L79 nova

1969 riverside gold vette

1970 LT1 vette

1970 GS stage 2

and thats the short list

On your short list I do like the idea of a tri-power car. Had tripower on my 55 Chevy...

Something about popping the hood and seeing 3 Deuces.
