nd 4 holden spd: Really? They still use the 3.8 liter a la the Grand Nat in australia?

Or is your car an older one?
 
Is it acceptable to say all of them?

Being honest, there really isn't one that I don't like. Lets see if I can give a brief list of some of my top favorites that may have not been mentioned.

(In no particular order.)
1. 1967 Nissan SKYLINE 2000GT-B - I'm currently running this one stock in the 1000 mile event. Its a fun little car to drive.
2. 1973 Nissan SKYLINE 2000GT-R (KPGC110) - Another Fun Skyline. I just wish there were more events that it could participate in.
3. 1970 Nissan SKYLINE Hard Top 2000GT-R (KPGC10) - I almost used this one in the 1000 mile event until after running one lap I was over 30 seconds ahead of the 2nd place car.
4. 1965 Shelby Mustang G.T. 350R - I'm a big Mustang fan. (I own a '67 coupe that I'm working on) Its the only classic mustang available.
5. 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7 - Good power and handling for a muscle car.
6. 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray (C3) - probably the best sounding Vette in the game!!!!!
7. 1961 Jaguar E-Type Coupe - Its a Jaguar . . . Yeah Baby!!!! . . . Um sorry, that slipped.
8. 1962 Lotus Elan S1 - Slow to start, but handles like its on rails
9. 1970 Dodge Charger 440 R/T - good enough for the Duke boys, good enough for me.
10. 1970 Plymouth Super Bird - The Granddaddy of all super wing cars.

Ok . . . I should stop there. I could go on for ever on this.
 
Anything with a V-8 or more under the hood, rear wheel or four wheel drive on the floor, and me in the cabin. My absolute favorite? The 1969 Chevy Camaro.
 
I have to say I love them all, although my favorites are the classic Japanese sports cars (Think 110S and 200GT), the little iconic cars from the UK (Think Elan and V8S), and especially the cool little Italian cars (Think Giulia, Statos, and 500R). The Giulia is probably my favorite, and it's also my cat's name.


Edit: I also like any car that several people seem to hate, like the Plymouth Superbird, Mazda Carol and Subaru 360. (People hate the Superbird from the missions I'm sure.)
 
I really enjoy driving many of the classic cars in GT4, but my favorites would be the Ford GT40 and Alfa Romeo Guilia Sprint, I don't mind the SS Camaro from time to time either.
 
I'll say it right now. Shelby GT350. They need the Boss 302 and the Boss 429. And the Chevelle SS 396. No I dont love muscle cars...
 
I just look at ALL the classic Japanese cars and :drool::drool::drool::D

Now, to be serious I have to go to my teenage days on these votes only because of the fun I had in them.

1. 1968 Isuzu Bellett GT-R: Reminds me of my old 13sec Gemini as they have the same motor and roughly the same weight but this one has another 70hp+ & torque on my car + Nitrous and does low 11s. :D

2. 1970 Toyota TA22 Celica GT: We had a burnout car of this exact model, so I did the same mods that we did to our car for reminiscing (lol) and when fully worked this can pull a 10.9sec 1/4 mile.

3. 1969 Datsun 1600 (510 model): Had a 1200 back in the day, and having been for a ride in an SR20DET'd version I've got a couple in the garage, 1 stock, 1 built.....but not run......dunno why, just plunged money on it.

I wish they had early rotaries like R100's/RX2's/3's/4's, then I would've built one of them up.....running around in the 110S Cosmo just doesn't feel right to me.

Mafs!!
