If you had to buy another car (excluding Bonnie'*) what
would you choose and why.
I myself love Pontiac'*, before I ever heard of the Bonnie'* I was looking into the Grand am, Grand Prixs.... and hubby loves the older Cadies...which he owns a fleetwood(Spelling?) right now. An 89 I believe.
So what would be your choice (make and year please...)

Take a Caddy 500 engine (500 cubic inches of doom and then stroke it to 570) from a 1970 through 1976 Cadillac El Dorado and drop it into a bug or Datsun. :P
Or a LS1 Camaro/Firebird. Either way.

Where to start...
A 1992 Lincoln Mark VII LSC...
Any GTO...
A 1969-1973 Pontiac Grand Prix (I know that the '73 was the new body--but I like it anyway)...
Any American Motors Gremlin (Ugly as hell)...
A 1986-1987 Chevette SC (two door, 5 speed)...
A 1987 Buick GN or GNX...
Any VW Bug (non Super) or Carmen Ghia...
Any Westfalia VW Camper (1968-1972 prefered)...
A 1969 Mustang fastback (with the 429)...
A 1969 Buick GSX...
This question is impossible to answer! Not fair...systems over...load...must....get....help...

Strange, but simple answer: Dodge Spirit R/T with the 2.2L intercooled turbo engine.
I'm into rare and undesired cars, however the Spirit R/T is a beast from hell that takes no prisoners.

Sol,
The 25 th anniversary edition was one of my favorite T/A'*. But I was pretty sure that they went with the Olds engine (same designation on the shaker--6.6 litre). In any event, it was a fine car indeed. When you find one, you'll have to drive over to Kazoo and take me for a spin. I can only dream of owning a T/A--family and all. Take advantage of your youth while you can! There will come a day when kids will make owning such a car a luxury.

Hey, no problem man. I'll be going to college near that area next year. But to clear this engine debate up, I did research it. Yes, there was an Olds 403 in there, but there were some made with the 400. It was the last year for the 400.
