    If you had room for 5 only. This is a tough list because I want so badly to put an original 1966 427 Cobra on here but I know I'd never drive the thing considering how much they cost.

    These should be cars you don't have but would actually drive if you had them.

    Me:

    1. 2005 Ford GT <or> Superperformance GT40 in Gulf livery. Would take either.
    2. 1969 Boss 429 Mustang
    3. 1969 Z28 RS Camaro, glacier blue with black stripes
    4. 1970 Hemi 'cuda
    5. 1968 Corvette 427/435 roadster in LeMans blue

    I actually put a lot of thought into this.......

    1-1969 BOSS 302 Mustang in orange on black with shaker hood, rear window slats, spoiler and Magnum 500 wheels

    2-1969 Corvette 427/435 coupe in white on red with OEM sidepipes

    3-1973 Trans Am 455 SD in red on white

    4-1969 Camaro Z28 with factory (delivered in the trunk) dual quad crossram intake in Le Mans Blue @ White stripes on black

    5-1970 Plymouth Superbird 426 HEMI in yellow on black

    All cars would be manual transmissions.

    $375K +/- USD to do this today.........versus $500-600K + in 2006..........

    3) 1970 GTO Judge
    4) 1967 Chevelle SS 396/375

    Since when is a mid engine sports car a muscle car? Most Mustangs don't even qualify technically speaking ;)

    No particular order

    1.) 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge Ram Air III
    2.) 1968 Camaro Z28 Cross Ram 302 (More of a pony car than a muscle car... )
    3.) 1966 Supercharged Shelby GT350
    4.) 1968 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda
    5.) 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt

    There are a few others I'd love to tinker with too. Who am I kidding??? there are a ton of others!

    First 4 the same. Add a 1964 Ford Thunderbolt. But honestly, just give me the GNX.

    Are most of you guys old enough to remember these things when they were new?

    I'm a little younger than the typical demographic but love that whole era. I wouldn't have even been born yet for some of them. :D

    I have owned a couple Grand Nationals (new). I would love another one. A GNX would be so sweet but I don't know if I could drive and enjoy it.

    Here's a pic I took of GNX #546 (out of 547) in a local showroom back when it was new. I think it would be so cool to someday buy this car. I wanted it so bad then.

    I have owned enough of the Turbo Regals to know that no matter what, I can't go wrong.
    My first one was an 84' T WH1 designer series (two tone). Unfortunately, that gave me the sickness....The next one will be number 6 since 1989.

    Our Buick board has the one and only GNX-Ray as a member. He was given permission to use all the spare parts at ASC to make a one off white GNX. (he worked on the project at Macleren). He has all of the information you would ever want to know about the project.

    I love them all so after much deliberation here are my 5...all my 1st choice :p

    Have mad love for a '68 Charger it's a just a bad boy car

    1967 - 70 Chevelle SS looks mean and fast sitting still

    1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7 GT-E

    1967 GTO

    GT 40 since it’s the only American car that ever won the Le Mans Race

    Being a mopar chick anything from 1969/70 be it a Dodge or a Plymouth will suffice

    I'm editing my list to replace the Ford GT with a Grand National. I figured the Grand National fits more with the criteria. I saw one in DC back in February and it was sweet.
