Talking For all you car Freaks out there...

Im a big car freak and have driven a ridiculous amount of cars from all generations. Post here your favorite car you have driven or just your favorite car you wish to drive and if you are as much of a freak as I am post why you like it so much.

My favorite car I have driven Is a nissan gtr r34

The twin turbo charged inline six is a wonderful powerhouse with minimal turbo lag and the awd system keeps all 4 wheels in check. And it can spin ALL FOUR WHEELS!!

But my all time favorite car that I wish i could drive is a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO.

2.5 Litre v12 with a 5 speed to the floor. sounds like GOD and is Ferrari's icon. Too bad there are only like 5 in existance ...

Out of all the cars Ive had or driven, I would say my 1968 Pontiac Firebird was the best. It had a '74 Formula 400 with a big Holly carb and dual exhaust. It hauled *** and handled like a sports car. 2nd would be my XJ. I dont have any pictures but heres an example.

1964 Plymouth Barracuda 273 V8 (183 hp!), 3-Speed Torqueflight Push Button Transmission, Gold with Chrome Hubcaps and Black racing stripes down the rockers. Which means that my dreamcar is rusting in the driveway because my Dad insists that "We need to build a shed before we restore it." Guarantee that doesn't happen before I'm out of college.

Or I could live with a Jump to 65 when they came out with the Formula S's, featuring "Commando" 273's making an insane 235 hp, 4-On-The-Floor Hursts, and "Rallye Tuned Suspension."

That would be sweet. My Dad's always wanted a Hemi Convertible but the Gold car was my Grandpa's so it stays. I think it has more character anyways, not many Valiant-Baracudas around.

if he does it the way he wants to it should get silver and blue two tone with blue accents all over (everything metallic) with blue anodized crap on the wheels and a gynormous mopar M on the fastback glass just to be obnoxiously sweet.
and a 6 speed

This is my all time favorite vehicle. The love I have for the '68 Firebird cannot be express with words. Only vehicle that eclipses my XJ.
