Is there any cars that you guys like that are modern? :D
I don't really like old cars, I like new and exciting stuff! ;)
A Mitsubishi 3000GT could be a classic! :D
I love modified versions of those! <hug>

I may be wrong here... but I think the guys do like modern stuff as well... but they are on a quest to find at least one classic you might consider... <thumbs>

But their must be some quite recent cars that are classics :D
Rather then all stuff that was made in the 1970's and my mum would enjoy driving! <dance>
Nissan Skylines are classics! :D I love them too! <hug>

I agree some cars are instant classics.... but a few pages back I asked how new where they looking to find.... I think it was settled that over 25 years is the target... so anything pre- 1982

It's generally regarded that between 15 and 25 years old is classic. depending on the make and model (minis have to be over 25 because of the length of their production run)

yup, I showed you a pic of it earlier. incidently it's not a convertable as it hasn't got a roof!

Failing that, ... Mr. Ed! Show her an Aston Martin DB9.

and I like the new mini too - although they do fall to bits a little too easily.

I've never been keen on mini's <blink> (apart from Mr Bean's mini)
Because they are just too small and they look funny <huh>
How about Mitsubishi Lancers? :D
Do you like those? They are gorgeous! <hug>

Prefer the latest Subaru Impreza myself, but wouldn't say no to a Evo IX... in standard, untouched, form...

John, told you before - link your pictures please!

I do belive that is the Mini Cooper S JCW GP limited edition - with uprated supercharger (good) extra handling enhancing strut braces (good) ligher weight (good) but absolultley horrible styling (V BAD!)

Kerri, the Modded cars I'm into are either...

Modified for sports - like 4-10's 205.
Sleepers - see 205 with a Mi-16 Engine in it... WHOA!!!

But I really don't like cars modified for looks alone.
