Here's mine, it's a '67 Ford Fairlane XL, 289 all original with 146000 miles. It's built like a tank. The pictures were taken on the route 66 fun run a few years back.

I'm lovin' that Horizon!!!
That was just like my first car!! (but mine was an early 80s version)

I'm a huge fan of the "scruffy but nice 10 year old luxury car". They're affordable, well built, unique, and fun.
My daily driver is a '97 Lincoln Mark VIII that's been worked over into a moderate 1/4 mile drag car. The confluence of luxury and brutality is quite fun, and an interesting study in contrasts.
It's quite dynamic for a 2-ton luxury car, as well. Certainly the best domestic luxo-sport available until the recent Cadillac V-series came out. Also one of the few modern domestic luxury vehicles that can credibly compete with the imports, IMO.
I also have an older Triumph convertible that's more of a toy car. Right now it's taken apart and awaiting an engine swap, as the old British 4-cylinder that came with it is heavy, slow, and unreliable. But other than that it's great.

Oh yeah the only way to roll in a MKV.
I love slammed cars, if the driver is driving like an ahole (around here that's at least 50% of them), they are at just the right height for faceful of my upgraded headlight and foglight.

Hey Wired45, tell your wife to lay off the go pedal!
I've got an '04.5 Platinum Grey GLI myself. I've never had a daily driver that's more fun than this one. Stock for now, but I'm not planning to leave it that way. There's a few little upgrades in store for me.

Like you said fun driver .Shes the one with the light foot when I drive it it gets less than 20mpg .Alot of fun to drive .Just too small and hard for me to get in and out of .Got a bad back problem , its nice once i'm in but a real pain getting in and out of . Looking for small suv toyota rav4 or something like that .We'll see.Great car 40,000 miles on it and no repair bills very dependable .
