What kind of vehicle makes your wheels turn?

Please vote once, feel free to post pictures if ya got them. But I know everyone has to have some kind of vehicle they are into. Lets hear about it!
 
I haven't done enough to really have a favorite car to work on yet but any transformation gets my wheels turning. If I would have known what I do now when I had my Rx-7 I'm sure that would have been my favorite though.
 
I'll just base my post on experience behind the wheel
.
50's has to go to the 58 Speedster.
With only 50 to 60 horsepower it can be as exhilarating at 100mph as 160 in the more modern super cars . No seatbelt and nothing to protect you.

60's go to the 275 GTS for sound and GTB for looks and sound.

70's 74 Dino GTs, Daytona and the awesome sound of the 365 GTC 4 and my all time favorite the 77 308 Euro dry sump Fiberglass prototype.

80's 512 BBI and M6(personal car) 930 Turbo

90's RX7 Turbo, NSX,

Recent The 16M, 911 Turbo S, Italia spider. And favorite also the 16M spider .
I really only base opinion on something I have had several hours of seat time. This is a question hard to answer.

There are many other great cars but this is based on actually driving and experiencing these cars.
 
Anything Ford SVT (except raptor and non 2013+ gt500) and 69-70 mustangs.


Old school muscle 1960-1972ish

A bit unusual for a Ford fan not to like the Boss's or the Drag Pack Mach's. Might I ask why? Those you don't like happen to be my favorite Fords.

Been doing a ton of reading the past couple of months. I think I'd really like to supercharge a 2012 5.0 Coyote Mustang. I think that would turn my wheels.

EDIT: Perhaps I read your post incorrectly, maybe those delineated items were what you like.

Great taste. Knew a guy that had a 70 Chevelle with an LS6 in it, automatic transmission. I've never ridden in a street car (street tires) that would leave the line any harder than that car.
 
Cherry Red '57 Chevy Bel-Air and Aston Martin DB9 are my dreams cars.

The past 10 years or so I have been loving all the German designs that have hit the market.
 
I guess my all time dream car would be a Viper. Old 90s model RT/10s or brand new..I don't care. I've been in love with those cars since they first came out. Being in high school in the late 90s, the fast car to have back then was a fox body Mustang, so that is another one of my favorites. Lately though, the Tesla Model S has my attention more than any other car.

1969-1970 Mustangs I like, all shapes and sizes.

I test drove a new 5.0 Coyote the other day and just didn't arouse me. Sure you can bolt on intake, cat back, slicks, and a tune and run 12's/11's...The interior also doesn't suit me very well either but not what I like. Got to ride in a 6 PSI single turbo 5.0 a few months back, that was very nice but again, interior kills it for me.. Hate the gauge display and im short so the seating elevation doesn't do it for me, plus the shifter is awkwardly placed.

Drive my Lightning or Dad's Cobra and it is just another ball game to me. Why I love SVT products from 1993-2004 and 2013+. I'm partial though, I've grown up around these cars all my life so eh, to each his own.
 
My motorcycle: ZX-10R Ninja

198 horsepower at the engine (167.5 at the wheels), 421 lbs full of fuel, oil, gas, radiator fluid, etc...

0-120 - faster than most modern sports cars hit 60...

Mid 9's in the quarter mile, capable of running a 7:35 at the Nuerburgring -stock.
 
I like the C3 style Corvettes(late 60's early 70's). As of late I even wanted to own one but they are just a little to tight for a guy my size. Also like the C5 and C6 Vette's but not to sure I am that fond of the new C7 Stingray. I also like late 60's and real early 70's American muscle especially '67 to '69 Camaro and proud to own a 2012 Camaro, only a V6 though. GM says 323 HP stock but with my minor mods should be pushing close to 350 HP at the crank and approximately 290 RWHP. GM says 0-60 in 6 seconds. Aftermarket exhaust that sounds pretty dang sweet for a V6 and with all that I can actually enjoy it without going broke at the gas pump at over 28 MPG. Gotta love today's technology.
