oh, it changes so much:

1) Triumph TR6 w/BMW S50 engine
2) 1969 Camaro Z/28 302
3) 1965 Impala, two door post like a Biscayne but 6 taillights (had one. Only one I've ever seen and I let it go

)
4) 1965-66 Plymouth Barracuda 360 Magnum Crate/4speed manual
5) Two-stroke Saab 96....just because.

So tough to limit to 5 but I wont cheat.
1) 33 Ford 3 window coupe (fenderless)
2) 57 Chev 2 dr HT with 283 Hp
3) 67 Fairlane 427
4) 69 Boss 429 Mustang
5) 70 Hemi Cuda

I am sure I will probably want to amend this list within an hour...
 
I'm happy with the cars I have right now.

I'd like to get another new Jag in a few years, an XF or maybe a new F Type. Maybe a Volt. Can't really think of anything else that interests me.

I'd like to get another airplane in a few years. As far as toys go, that might come before another car.
 
My top dream car is a helicopter. There is NO car on the face of this planet that can make sharing the road with other drivers enjoyable.

I think a 2000 R would be #6 on my list. This should have been a top 10 list.

Don't laugh now. I had one in high school( 1976 )and it was a really cool car. I think it would make a great daily driver and is not something you see much anymore.

I liked the appearance stuff better on the 1979-1980 models than the 76-78 models. I liked the 76 model only one piece rear spoiler better than the 77-80 3 pieces but other than that give me a 79-80 over the earlier ones. I really would like one of the Black w/ silver or gold graphics( see below ). If I could get one with the optional T-Roof as well that would be a bonus. Would have to have the buckets and floor shifter vs a bench and colum like my 76 too.

There were a few really cool cars from that era. A little gaudy perhaps but it was appropriate for the period. They were quick in their day but just about every modern 4cyl midsize would keep up or run away from them.

my favorite:
WhiteFairmontTurbo.jpg

Fairmont Futura Turbo Coupe
 
1. 1963 Studebaker Avanti, 4 spd, R3 motor
2. 1953 Studebaker Hardtop
3. 1964 Studebaker, Gran Turismo, 4spd, R3 motor
4. 1964 Studebaker Avanti, 4 spd, R3
5. 1956 Packard Hawk.

I remember those.
 
In no particular order...

Ferrari F40
Porsche 959
Lamborghini Miura SV
Ferrari 250 GT Spyder California

After these, the fifth becomes very difficult to decide. I'll just leave it at four.

If you love the 959, you must like the F40!
The F40 is one the greatest car of all time..
