Got to talking about this with a buddy, and there were a few cars that came up...most notably the Cadillac Cimarron. It was a slap in the face for Caddy lovers, with no justification for being pricier than the other early J body cars - but the J body cars are actually pretty decent despite the hate they get. Having one now would be great, and you could likely find one in half decent shape for dirt cheap. Several other cars were also discussed, but the likes of the original Corrola and civic have followings, as did the others we talked about as maybe not having the appreciation due to them. Also, none of them inspired as much debate or daydreaming. How hard would you get laughed at for swapping a bunch of Z24 goodies into a Cimarron? You'd end up with an ugly little runt of a sedan, quicker than half the cars on your block between lights that would utterly rot away before it ever broke down mechanically...and even if something did fail, parts would be readily available and really...the whole damn car can be torn down in a driveway with basic hand tools in an afternoon.
