You guys all know by now that I'm working on cleaning house(selling all my cars).

So, having seen many of my old rides and knowing my current ones, what do you think my next one will be or should be?

I'm all over the map. New/old, truck/SUV/Car, classic wagon/El Camino, a Zeta variant, even tempted by Kappa. Even I can't guess what it will be.

So make your suggestions/predictions now and we'll see who nails it.

Even I don't know what the answer will be.

Here's a little more background information.

A few of the cars not listed(pictured) in the sticky topic "Camino's Old rides Index".

I have no pics of these:

'71 Impala coupe

'73 Plymouth 340 Duster

'71 Plymouth Duster

'68 Chevy C/10

'68 Nova sedan

'70 Chevelle coupe

Lately I've definitely been wanting a Cobalt SS SC or a Kappa (even though they're sold out for the year already). I'd love me a Corvette, too, but they're far out of my range.

Cobalt is out, as I'll never buy a new FWD anything. Corvette is more than I'm likely to spend. But Kappa,... maybe.

Holden UTE!!!

Wait... They dont sell it here yet

Ever thought of an IROC convertible?

Dodge Magnum

Dodge Charger

Saturn Sky

Infiniti G35 (redesigned one)

`70 Cuda (good luck finding one)

Ford Mustang

Since you are only suggesting the complete opposite of what I want... I'd say a Honda Prelude would suit you find. They are great reliable cars. Same with Honda Civics. Either one is your best bet. Anything thing else? Not worth your time. Move on.

240SX? If you don't mind Japanese that is...

price limit

hmmm... ill guess a few...

saturn sky

late 80s monte carlo

Lincoln Mark V

Caddy Coupe Deville

if you plan on waiting a bit maybe a 2009 camaro

Sky Red Line or Solstice GXP if you want something small.

i dont know what all this talk is about people who dont like cars from the 70s... i dont believe you guys that these people exist... they are clearly what we evolved from and have since become extinct

OK, let's see if I can catch up.

Brandon: Yes ,please!

Z: That would be pretty cool for budget fun.

Dodge: I like the Magnum but the dogs won't fit- so that's out. You must have forgotten that I Hate the Charger. Infiniti? -no thanks.

70 CUDA?!! Hell yes!

Mustang : I'd get torn limb from limb I do like them though.

BV:

TC: umm,no.

Capriceman: It depends, but definitely less than a C6.

04 Monte: Yes,Yes,No,No, Oh Yes.

WMJ: a definite possible maybe

Northie: You've gotten to know me too well. :AH-HA_wink:

WMJ V2.0: 1972 and older and you've got my attention ( with a few exceptions '73-up)

I think a solstice would be cool as well, what brands particulary are you lookin for?

There is at least an 85% chance the next ride will be Pontiac or Chevy.

Ic, i think the solstice would be the coolest, also if you dont mind a sedan GP's are pretty cool, if yah go with chevrolet, id get a monte carlo (dont know if thats fwd), or the new Avalanche if your lookin for a truck :AH-HA_wink:

GMT900 Silverado shortbed regular cab 2WD with factory 20" rims. Dark blue. 5.3L AFM V8. Aftermarket intake and exhaust. Tinted windows.

Wait, that's what I want. So... excellent choice!

Buy a Solstice GXP and get a trailer to carry your stuff & the puppy.

actually... forget it, buy THIS!

Some wild sheetmetal on those boattails, the tooling must've been expensive.

you shoul get a sweet 1.0L 3 cylinder Geo Metro!!!!!!!

how about a 66 olds toronado?????????????

No FWD, my friend, no FWD.

is it that bad looks like some one needs to read

how about 64 impala be different.

Avalanche!

(Don't ask me why this was the first thing that popped into my mind...)

Camino:

I hear you on the FWD. I'd love to buy a SS/SC with the LSD

but if I can not get it without breaking the bank I should just

get a nice used RWD. Actaully I'm currently on a new kick.

Back when Subaru was still owned by GM I told myself I'd

get a beater WRX someday. I looked it up and a 70-80K mile

2002 Impreza WRX in great shape runs about $13,000. I am

still disapointed at GM selling this brand to Toyota, but hell...

if I got a 2002 used I'm not giving any money to Toyota and

technically when the car was bought new it was GM.

Anyway, screw justifying it. It's got a pancake motor, turbo,

5-speed, rear biased AWD & still has four doors. Why not?

BV:    

Well... I hate you, too.

Well... I hate you, too.

I don't hate you,BV. I just hate Honda.

Avalanche!

(Don't ask me why this was the first thing that popped into my mind...)

I've come very close to buying an Avalanche several times, so your nomination makes sense. Now they finally look good.

is it that bad looks like some one needs to read

AHHHHHHH.....    Nooooo......

how about 64 impala be different.

Hmm, 64 Impala SS...

It's gotsta be a six-fo wit' switches, yo

"Hey ba-beee. D'you want to take a ride in the love machine?" *bounce* *bounce* *bounce*

I've owned dozens and dozens of cars, but here is an interesting variable.

I have never owned:

a Corvette

or

a Convertible

Well in that case, how about a...ummm, Corvette convertible...?

A late C5 or early C6?

Maybe early C3?

Dunno.

I don't hate you,BV. I just hate Honda.

Meh... same damn thing. I own some Honda atvs/motorcycles and I tried to get my mom into a Honda, specifically a Prelude. Now you hate me, right?

Nope, I feel sorry for you. :AH-HA_wink:

I own a Honda roto-tiller, but that doesn't mean I want to drive one of their cars.

Maybe early C3?

Dunno.

YES!!!!!!! listen to the C3 calling you... answer the call of the C3

Buy the C3

Drive the C3

LOVE THE C3!!!!!!

BV: Honda makes the best dirt bikes, some roadbikes, ATV's, Air compressors (well besides IR), power washers and generators. AND THATS ALL.

There automobiles suck.

C3 My favorite of the vettes.

I'm sorry... you cannot diss Preludes, Integras, NSXs, or CRXs unless you're biased.

when it looks like this you can.

C4 ZR1? Or a late 80's C4 vert to get you through the long, hard summer and an '07 Avalanche to do everything else.

THE PUMA!!!.... "what you mean like a big cat?"

GT500?

dumptruck? gotta be a tonka

hows about a porshe?

C4 ZR1?  Or a late 80's C4 vert to get you through the long, hard summer and an '07 Avalanche to do everything else.

This idea has merit, there's a ZR1 for sale locally w/low miles... ...and it's black!

Do it! I'd like to see anyone take a spin in a ZR1 and then bash DOHC.

In case you couldn't tell, I have a soft spot for the C4, I've toyed with the idea of breaking the bank and picking up a high miled, beat to hell, early C4 because they're so cheap. 210hp? Who cares, clean it up, give it a nice wax job, and cruise, its a f@#king Corvette.

The Corvettes with the TPI 350 were rated at 230-240hp throughout their life. The great thing about those engines also respond very well to even light modifications. You could get another 100hp without even pulling the engine. The 1984 with the cross-fire injection will probably have more colector value, but they are a real PITA to keep running smooth. The throttle-body ends up collecting this gunk inside and gradually degrades the way the car runs. Hence it's three model year existence.

I'd get a C4 too if the right one came along. I like the way some of them look with the body-colored side exhaust kits.

*whistles* um...

C3!!!!!

BUY IT!!!!!!!!!

How can you say no to one of these. I want one so bad.

LOOK TO OLDS FOR THE NEW! And look at all the FWD cars now.

With a 425 how can you go wrong?

Edited May 1, 200619 yr by capriceman

C3 would be the most likely vette for me. The ZR1 will likely be gone by the time I'm ready. A friend of mine is selling a C2 though and...
