If you could have any car from the year you were born, what would it be?

[Formula218]

saw this on another forum, and it got some cool answers.



i choose a 1986 AMG Hammer

31061

(skip to 2:20 for the good bits)

[shownomercy]

87 GNX.

Simple enough :lol:

[popo8]

Ok... now that i can read... from 1976... there are some beautiful exotics... countaches... 308s... but i think one of the most beautiful cars would be the Pantera. ..

[Sahara54]

85 Grand National but to be original an Audi Quattro S1 Group B car. Pure violence in car form.

[superspirit]

A 1960 corvette, personally I think it's the sweetest lookig car ever built!

[94z5641]

1972 Chevelle SS 454....yeah baby

[blkchevyz]

wow this would suck for late 70s and early 80s people lol

[GuillaumeC]

1984... not a lot of nice cars to pick from. :/

[SSlowBoat]

89 iroc

[hokeplaya05]

hmmm.... 1991 BMW E30 M3, 911 Turbo, or a FC RX7 (with a v8 swap of course!) :bananarock:

[blkchevyz]

31066

its a toss up between that and a 78 vette... granted my 4 door daily driver today is faster than both lol

Ok... fixed.

[95 blackbird]

1971 Camaro Z28. Split bumper of course.

[dawdaw]

92 geo tracker 4bt Cummins swap it

[dawdaw]

5 speed of course

[donfrye]

1976 Y82 T/A and its not real close for me.

[shadowbandit]

A Ferrari f-40 [emoji7]31067

[GaryDoug]

It's a no-brainer for me: 1948 Ferrari Spyder Corsa 166

31068

[GaryDoug]

Orrrrrrr... maybe this 1948 Delahaye just to shock the neighbors...

[harner]

1985 was the first year of the IROC. Coincidentally, my old college roommate owns an 85. The early TPI years suck, so the IROC wouldn't be my first choice. A GNX would be the obvious choice.

Yup, iroc didn't get 5.7 till 87, SD in 90

[Featherburner]

Yup, iroc didn't get 5.7 till 87, SD in 88SD in 88? What is that?

[SSlowBoat]

SD in 88? What is that?
Speed density, removed the maf and a crap load of drive ability issues, and that 9th injector for cold start enrichment was removed

[Featherburner]

Oh, that's what I thought you were saying but SD was done in 90.

I thought it was 88? Friggin thirdgen.org kids....

[Featherburner]

88 was still MAF but it was the last year for the cold start injector. 89 was MAF with 8 injectors.

[BrokenShadowRacing]

71 Yenco Nova! In this is color! http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/12/4e7a393532e299ae8519045ec53d7b11.jpg

[Camaro96]

Trans-am 455 HO for 1975

[LT slow]

91 Ferrari f40.

[MeanTA]

options sucked in 83. I guess I would go with a Regal T-Type.

[bachert24]

Yeah I'm one of those unlucky late 70s to early 80s guys mentioned on page one lol, considering my piss poor options I'm gonna go with a 1980 Pontiac Trans Am 301 Turbo in white and blue. Sexy..Thanks GM.

Nothing in 1980?? Come on; how about this one?

[Madman337]

No question for 67, 67 Corvette with the 427 in it31092but I would grab a 67 RS-SS 396 Camaro 31093 in a heartbeat

[bachert24]

Countach? It's pretty, but the bird is prettier. There are some killer euro fords and a sweet Porsche is 80 as well, but the bird is friggin rare and sexy!

[bachert24]

91 Ferrari f40.
My fave Ferrari!

[popo8]

I love American muscle but i think the countach is the sexiest vehicle ever made.

[Formula218]

i could live with a 1986 Lamborghini LM002, just because of how ridiculous it was
31096

It was the H1 status symbol of the 80s

[zooguy]

born in 1989 so i would get a 1989 Trans Am GTA V6 turbo pace car

[95albinobird]

i'm 1969 a HELL OF A YEAR too many sweet car's that year i can't nail 1 down,,,,hold on i got it COPO ZL1,

[CamaroZGuy]

1986 Ford RS200 Evolution

31100

[Madman337]

I like that 1 too.

[devildog1]

68 L88 corvette. King of the hill.

[jaysz2893]

even though it is powered by FORD, I would have to go with a 1974 Pantera. Could always put a Ltx or Lsx in there..

Incredibly, just today I saw one of these pulling out of a space in a parking lot as I walked to my car, then driving onto the highway. Boy, was that mother LOUD!!!! Can't possibly be legal.
The custom license plate read "I DO 219"

[94btmLT1]

A white 1996 SS. Preferably with T tops and a t56 :) http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/20/1ed39cca57bfd3cf3338e3e26a68e4e0.jpg

[jlo]

For me it would be 1983 Porsche 944 turbo or the 911..

[Not Dave]

1969 - It'd have to be a Corvette Stingray convertible with a 427. I'd take red, black, blue or dark green.

31373

There's also the 1969 Dodge Polara with a 440 big block, cop tires, cop shocks...

31374

[HellTeeOne]

1980 911 Turbo.
31379
With 300bhp and easy mid-13 second quarter mile potential, probably one of the fastest cars around at that point in time. Plus I'm a fan of anything 911.

[blackbirdws6]

83 corvette

[Featherburner]

83 corvette1 of 0!

[blackbirdws6]

Glad you picked up on that :)

[popo8]

Not according to the corvette museum....

[Featherburner]

Not according to the corvette museum....There were about 50 prototypes that were built. Most were destroyed. One was made an 83 for their collection and the rest became 84 model year cars.

I was actually searching for the pics of the white one they had on display when i got the notification u replied. Lol. soooo.... 1 of 1....

Mine would have to be one of the most rare Vettes ever! 1 of 2 69 ZL1 Convertibles.

[Ugod02010]

This isn't fair. I was born in 83. Nothing good came out of anywhere in the early 80s. But I think I would have to go with a vette

[popo8]

This isn't fair. I was born in 83. Nothing good came out of anywhere in the early 80s. But I think I would have to go with a vette

the joke with that is.. there was no official vette produced in 1983.... GM claims to have made a bunch as we discussed earlier, but they were either destroyed, or moved off to the 1984 year.....

Now with that being said... how can you say there was nothing good in the early 80s..... Do you not like exotics?

Quick google search for "1983 cars" https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=A0LEV7j3Sa1UMmYAa14PxQt.?p=1983+cars&fr=&fr2=piv-web&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-001

[Ugod02010]

I do like exotics, I was actually gonna say about the Porsche. I think Lamborghini made a couple nice coupes that year also. I thought this was American cars only tho. Also the 83 trans am is a favorite of mine. I didn't like the camaro much that year it had the early body kit where the skirts didn't flare out much I liked the later 3rd gen camaro better. I forgot about them not making the vette in 83!

[Ugod02010]

Found it!! The Lamborghini countash, I didn't think these came out just yet http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/01/07/72a28593e78849540aa8a8f26c029e4f.jpg

[bRock]

I've always liked the Countach, 911's are awesome, the BMW M1 was pretty bad ass; but I think the car that fits me best would be the 10th anniversary T/A with 400/ 4 speed combo

31387


BTW: the Countach V12 was Lamborghini's SBC equivalent. They used that motor through the 90's, at least. I think it's a pretty Damn solid drivetrain

[Wilburbeest]

Lamborghini Diablo. Exactly as pictured

Mmmmmm... beautiful. What year is that?

[Gette]

Off all the Lamborghini's, I have always favored the Diablo.

[Wilburbeest]

Ain't it though? I think it said that exact one is a 1991, but it's just like 1990, which is it's first year and my birth year.

Countach amd diablo... my top two lambo loves.
