Couldn't agree more. Love that bird running out of the scoopand I love that front bumper! (There is a diecast available of this exact same car I believe. GMP?)

Everyone of these threads I read I think...Yeah, that would be cool! My problem is that in order to own one, I'd have to give up what I have and historically I have a tough time parting with my cars. Which is both a blessing and a curse. For example, I would not be able to sell that Road Runner and not regret it every friggin day of the rest of my life...

Wow great question. I am 60 plus years old and I think back on the cars that I have owned. The list is long on what I have had the pleasure of owning and driving. Two come to mind real quick, first one a 1970 Olds 442 W30, in green, had her in the mid 70's while posted in Ontario. Man was that thing fast and handled well. The second was my 69 2+2 L36 car in light blue. Imagine being in your early 20's with that car. But I am a poncho guy to the bone. I would be so happy to own a correct 427 poncho once more.
Well if not a Pontiac, Beaumont or Acadian then it would much be like you picked. I always liked the hardtop 64 plymouth body style , and with a 426 wedge engine.
Ray you'd probably like the new Porsche Panamera. I saw one over the weekend. Base price aroune 150k, the one on display was sticker priced at just north of 170k.
