Mercedes SLK 55 AMG. 360 hp. Very nice smooth ride. I personally do not own one, but a family memeber does and it is a blast to drive. Not to odd of a car. But the AMG is a hard to find, not many around, at least not in Cininnati, Ohio.

My 1993 RX7-R1

Had it since June of 1992. 39000 miles on it now. Still have never driven a car that "felt" more elemental and connected to while driving. "Traded" with Jane, I could buy it if I quit smoking cigarettes. Best trade I ever made, even though it took a few years for me to actually hold up my end.

Wow, one of my favorite cars ever. That's one of the few cars that I would consider over/along with the S2k. If only it were reliable enough. I would put way more than 39000 miles on it.

haha I know!

I live in Houston but these seem to be really popular around here.

I've always been intrigued by these because, as far as I know it's the only production car with a rotary style "wankel" engine.

also, the "fast and furious" kids seem to love them. One of my co-workers has an RX-7 that is INSANELY quick, not to mention good looking.

Take an MGB .. wash in hot water, shrink it down and voila, an MG Midget.

I had 2 .. loved them, despite their being complete and utter pieces of s***.

Cool looks, Cosworth Engine, Rare... Bet your house on this one! Not many mid-to-late 70's car have exploded on the aution scene yet, but they will...

I bought a junky Vega when I was in high school for $200, was on my way to the auction to sell it and the damn thing blew up.

My very first car was left to me by my Grandfather:
Image
1960 Studebaker Lark, Beige with a L-6 Flathead engine & 3-on-the-Tree standard tranny. I drove this car for 2 years until I blew the engine.

My next purchase was sort of a "muscle car":
Image
1965 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S with an auto tranny. The 225 slant six engine was bored to 234 and had a 4 bbl Holley, headers and an exhaust dump. This car would run low 17's and regualrly beat V8's at the strip.

After the service I briefly had one of these:
Image
1957 BMW Isetta 300... I kept it for a while, but it never ran very well. It had a 298cc motorcycle engine, 4 spd tranny and chain drive connected between the gearbox and the rear axle. Popularly known as "bubble car" "egg mobile" and "coffin car", I never drove it much - it was unnerving not having anything in front of the door and steering wheel!

Pretty oddball cars, in my opinion.... :-)
