Dang, we have a few of the same favorites, weird, I thought mine would be unique with all the Ferrari's, Bugatti's, MK's, etc, on those lists, LOL...

Almost all of my vehicles have been convertibles, I'm just drawn to a really cool 'vert.

I suppose nowadays I really just don't find cars that appealing. It's strange, I know, because I used to marvel at fancy cars before I got my license. Now I just find innovation to be the best part, not just bad ass looking sports cars. I like efficiency, accessibility, and safety.

But for innovation, efficiency and safety you have to look to the supercars.... All those things filter down from the technology they invent....LOL

1963 Lincoln Continental convertible w/suicide doors...

You can get your shopping in any car, but the perfect garage has to have a luxury shopping trolley in there somewhere...
It has to be fast, capable of carrying all the family and a months worth of shopping in any conditions, (what happens if you are snowed in):laugh:

Actually there were a few 4 door convertibles in the 50's and 60's but that was when cars had full frames under them. Today's unibody vehicles couldn't handle the stress, except... wait for it.... The 4 door Jeep Wrangler! Of course I prefer my '06 2 door, the last year with 4.0 S6 and 6 speed Manual... :dancer:

Oh dang, had to edit, That car was also the one Kennedy was shot in...
 
i'm not much of a car person...my ideal car is one that gets me from point A to point B without breaking down, using the least amount of money as possible.

1-1969 Plymouth Roadrunner (440/6pack or hemi...either way)
2-1957 Corvette (with removable hardtop, please)

A guy I used to work with has a Roadrunner w/440 and nitrous. I would always tell him I loved his car, but too bad it was painted metallic purple. We used to call it the Barney Mobile...

I like the Willys too and only came across one for sale cheap that I wanted really bad. My friend, who worked on cars, was with me and when the guy wasn't looking stuck a screwdriver through the passenger door while tapping for bondo... We got out of there real quick :sidestep:
 
I'm getting some excellent, brilliant, alternative 10's but nothing really perfect... IMO
I believe I have the best list to be described 'perfect' IMO.... LOL
Look at my offering.....
Not just a garage of memories, but a garage of promise.... LOL
