+1 for K cars. We got our first one because it was cheap and practical; then my fiancée rolled it at highway speed and came away with a tiny scratch on her wrist. By the time we had two kids and transitioned to a minivan, we'd had three more. We never felt cool, but we felt safe.
And if I ever got another (presumably from Atlanta, since I think all the Canadian ones have returned to the earth) I'd know what to do with it, thanks to this bunch of enablers.
1980s Ford Rangers.....don't know why.

Stole my thunder, I want an old police package car to drop a big block mopar stroker in.

It begs for 2.4 RWD awesomeness.
First gen caravans, more specifically turbo ones.

Yes I am not the only one who wants one.

Agreed. Particularly the ragtop. I have never cared for the 4-door.

They were available with a stick. The Bronco was also only offered in 4wd. (The Bronco ][ is not a Bronco.)

Different body, but my '94 2.3 has 280K on it.
My LT1 Roadmaster. If I had a Caprice or Impala, I wouldn't need to explain it to anyone. I have to explain the Roadmaster all the time. I just adore it.
Anything Else is Just a Car!

2WDs were FWD, and I'm pretty sure you couldn't get a turbos without AWD (unlike the Eclipse/Talon/Laser). Destroys any and all possible want of the lesser models.

That should've read "MY full-size Bronco". I wouldn't want it with a stick. I actually can't stand full-size trucks with manual transmissions. For everything I want a truck to do, I prefer my torque be converted.
And while I know all FSBs are 4wd, it doesn't stop the guys at Kragenzone from asking EVERY SINGLE TIME, hahaha.

Volvo 780 . . .
BUT, man is this car a mile muncher . . . It ate up the miles on the way back from Vero Beach. The seats are old and were treated like crap, but still surprisingly comfortable; nice supple ride on the stock suspension. To me, feels like calm, highway cruising E30; not total hoon mobile, but it can be when it needed 
One of these came up on craigslist a year or two ago. Still wish I could have gotten it.

Gramps! Gramps is it?! Why, when I was a boy we had some respect for our elders! That's what we had. Why, I otter get a switch from that tree out yonder is what I otter do and learn you a little respect!
And I thought it would be QUITE clear that it was a Toyota Previa! I mean, come on, they're not that old! There's still a billion of them on the road! Oh, that car in the foreground? Damn, I don't know. What do I look like, a fossil?
It's a Mazda Cosmo. Mid 70s. Damn cool.
It's also classed in FSP like the Celica I bought. But it would probably be even more of a nightmare to try to build. Plus it would be a shame to abuse it like that. But I bet it would work really well.
+1 for the Damn Cool
There, I admitted it.
Of course, I've been watching "Breaking Bad", so that's probably the source of my newfound interest.
Some years ago I was between 'real' jobs and hooked up with a limo company. I only took short routes so I got stuck with the older Cadillacs but always wanted to get my mits on the Corvette-engined '96 Fleetwood Brougham they recently added to their fleet.

Always liked the looks of the late 70s GM midsize coupes. The Monte Carlo has been done to death so I'd rather do some sort of resto-mod on a Cutlass or Grand Prix
assuming they haven't all been turned into street stocks by now
We just bought a Honda Element. I know I shouldn't like it, but it swallows cargo like mad and is fun to drive in a strange, top heavy way. Ugly but effective.
The Renault 5 Turbo is a car for which I have no reason for liking, but do.

Shame on you for naming yourself RexSeven and not knowing what an RX-5 / Cosmo is! Know your history!
