A bit embarrassed and a little ashamed but I've been lusting over the L34 and A9X Torana lately.

Easy... and I still prefer it to the ute.
TJ JEEP Wrangler.. not to be confused with the newer crappy versions. Not the BEST 4x4 on the market,but by far the BEST FUN 4x4 you will find. only thing coming close would be the suzuki... |

New Vanquish... absolutely gorgeous One-77. Divine. I love GT cars... and they don't come better than Aston Martin.

mclaren f1 road car - absolute brilliance that no other manufacturer (except maybe bugatti) has ever got close to achieving, no matter how hard they have tried
plus, the only car that can come close to a coupe . . . aesthetically |

Austin A90 Six Westminster ... cruise at 70mph, smooth ride althought bit of body roll and some understeer. Solid as a rock. My mother clobered an AP6 Valiant at 50 k. Drove the Austin home, destroyed the Valiant.

The latter are hovering around the 100k mark now.... ohhh so tempting. Nothing says 'Fast Class' more than this IMO:

Honda Integra DC5 Type R, one of the best FWD cars of its time. JDM ones come out of the factory with 162KW @ 8000 RPM and 200nm of torque @ 7000 RPM going through both front wheels thanks to an LSD behind a sweet 6sp manual. The earlier DC2 is considered the better car performance wise, less power but its lighter and handles better, but I like some creature comforts like aircon and slightly softer suspension Last edited by Franco Cozzo; 15-09-2012 at 11:12 AM. |

For me it's the Jaguar XF because IMO, it point the way in which Ford or more correctly Lincoln should be heading with Falcon...

Series One Jaaaaaag XJ6...I always wanted to go against the trend and forget about fitting a 350 Chev V8 and instead fit a crossflow 4.1 Ford engine.
Now it would be even better to fit something like the engine and six speed auto out of a newish XR6T... |

It did remind me of the Aussie muscle cars, but just that little bit better, more finished & refined.
