700cc of 3-cylinder turbocharged goodness. My 2nd Smart Roadster Bluewave, unadulterated joy on the twisties. This is at the Nurbergring.

Nice Wehrseifen shot.

I can contribute also a few.

My two most recent ones. I haven't owned any old muscle cars but really want a 65-66 GT350. I had a 2010 Roush 427r before the Challengers and was going to buy a 2016 GT350 that the dealer had me spec out but they threw a $20k mark up on it so I passed. My pic of the Roush won't post for some reason. The Audi S4 with an aftermarket tune was a blast though

Nice ride. Back in the 70's I owned a 1970 Challenger T/A, hemi orange, torqueflite trans. They came with a 340 six pack engine, with reverse flow mufflers under the trunk and the exhaust outlets were chrome tips in front of the rear wheels. Reverse flow hampered output, glass packs straight thru to the exhaust tips sounded better and unleashed a lot more HP than the stock rated 290HP. Not sure, but it may have been the first factory muscle car to have larger tires on the rear than on the front. Let it go in the mid 70's for more than I paid for it, and I heard the guy who bought it totalled it.

Do yourself a favor and don't look up that cars value now. The 2018 Challenger TA 392 I had is the nicest Challenger of the two Challengers I have bought. The Hellcat had a rough life before and while I had it. I had some good times in both but mainly drove the T/A 392 on the interstate and to and from work since I was traveling for work at the time. Definitely my favorite car to travel in. I want an older muscle car now for a weekend cruiser and minor restoration project.

those are so cool…..but what I really love and dream about is that building/garage!
The building is only 6 feet tall. It just looks huge because there’s two RC cars parked in it ?

The 300ZX Twin Turbo is one of my favorite cars from my early teen years. My father who was in the car business bought one from a local bank that was surrendered by its original owner. He and I went all over NE Tennessee in it the one week he had it. I would bet we put 4-500 miles on it then cleaned it up good on sunday and he sold it on Monday. I was heart broken and the first car I bought was a 350Z which didn't live up to my memory. I had a few trucks and Jeeps before buying the 350z

i have a couple of friends that have them. Really a great car. One friends Z is bone stock. The other friend's car is modded. Bigger turbo's, intercooler, etc. He's in the process of finishing his build. Some oem parts are really hard to get, if you can get them at all.

The one I sold in November, 2019, to help finance my first JT purchase. I was getting it ready to load into the trailer so it could be shipped to the buyer in Texas.
