    STS-V...469hp worth of blown, twin cam Northstar goodnes



    G8 GT - this car is very impressive in person and not photogenic, the wheels are so so but that's an easy fix

    I figured that it would be too easy for some people to say ZO6 or whatever. So this way they have to think alittle.

    1969 Nova SS. I like these babies WAY more than the Camaro or Chevelle. They do OK with a 396 but really shine with a fuel injected 527...

    2004 Mach 1. Nobody else will be down with this - but they sound fucking amazing with longtubes and a good exhaust. DOHC 4.6L and a shaker hood. They're not that great of a performer in any area but would make a sweet comfy cruiser.

    2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with the Duramax. I've driven all 3 of the big diesel's and the Duramax is my favorite by far. maybe it's the butter-smooth automatic (compared, especially, to the pre 98.5 Cummins). Black in a 4dr cab, it would make a fucking badass tow vehicle. Seats 4 adults VERY comfortably with freakin heated leather seats up front and extending side mirrors, all sorts of awesome shit. Plenty of power but you can throw on a Banks kit for more (and the Exhaust brake is a must-have for towing in mountains). Would have to be lifted for sure for offroad excursions.
    Dude! Rules are there to follow. You're only allowed to pick two! :hitler:

    Dammit...people these days. ;)

    The Javelin will not let you down. I always made fun of AMC till i bought my AMX and hopped up the 390 then 401 later. OMG that thing would move :eeek:..

    I love these as well. I know right now where one is for sale for 15k one owner and he is 70 years old too. Probably be a smart idea to pick it up if I had the extra cash.


    Truck like mine use it as a DD - 2005 Ford F250 SuperDuty crew cab turbo diesel



    And one like my other DD - 2003 Yukon Denali XL

    The only American car that I've ever really loved is th '69 Camaro Z-28 .
    Mine would be tastefully modded though :
    Modern race suspension bits and stance (think RJ Gottliebs "BigRed" style)
    Chevy LS2 built for high revs and 500ish WHP
    6-spd trans
    18" or 19" three piece forged wheels
    15" brakes

    Kinda like this visually :



    And for the modern car I would go with a nice new GTO 6-spd ...modded of course :

    Sign me up for that Ford too.

    That and a 1967 Camaro, and my e30 with a massive turbo.

    And I'd be one happy man. :D
