Own just 1 of these cars, any of them, for a significant amount of time, and you've secured your ticket to gearhead valhalla. Just 1. Then you can get lazy and drive a minivan with your family and we won't bat an eye. But touch greatness, even for a moment, before selling out. Everything else is just a waste of time.

Some of these are acquirable, a few are downright affordable to daily.
MR2 Prices have been low for years and will stay low for a while as the wave of 2015 240Z neufanboiz grows even larger.
Their bang for the buck rival miatas and porsches.
Doesn't have to look blatantly 90's rice either. Look at this classy motherfucker
I've owned 4 on this list. Can't stop won't stop
>no Gtr of any kind
>gearhead valhalla
>lists WRX, but no M5
ok buddy
Ok and what about a list for people that are middle class. That list is stupid and is for people worth at least 20 million because some of those cars are worth millions and if you have a net worth of 5 million and buy a million dollar + car you're pretty dumb.
Does a Renault 5 with Volvo 1.7 turbo count too?
>>14110260
This is a terrible list and you should feel ashamed.
>no s2000
>no Ariel atom
>Miata with the wet noodle chassis and literal lawnmower engine somehow best of all time?
>anything on this list that didn't come in manual
>Ferrari 355 was the biggest piece of shit ever made by Ferrari
>jaguar e type on best list of all time? Best at what? Breaking down while the fat fuck driver has to tinker around pretending he knows what he's doing until the tow truck gets there?
What the actual fuck is this? Eurotrash cars are just complete piles of shit.
Anything that's a road going version of a racecar is good, I.e. Porsche Carrera gt, Ford gt, etc. The rest of this list just reeks of boomer collector-tier trash.

You put some time in to make this, so thnx. Gives me some new insights.
My list is simple ONE of these in every colour they had been made in, anyone know??
>>14110260
>No S2000
>Not every version of Rx7
>Not every Mazda
>VW
>Corvette
>Ford
>Impreza
buying an 04 gallardo was the worst decision of my life
>>14110546
>if you have a million+ dollar car you're dumb
someone sounds poor, this list has a miata and 2000's WRX impreza, how the fuck is that unattainable to the middle class?
List is solid, but you need more mercs, 190e Evo, G Wagon, SL65 Black Series, CLK AMG GTR(the plane-benz), 560 SEC and the 300E Hammer, and the CLS AMG, first generation. I would also add the 2008 C63 AMG
>there isnt a single viper on this list
>>14111463
No he doesn't those all suck, like every Mercedes since the beginning of time. Mercedes aren't drivers' cars.
>>14110741
Maybe now you will realize that you have shit taste and the Supra is a pigfat barge
My dad owns a 73 pantera 7 speed manual with a Cleveland 302
>>14111463
How is G wagon good?
>muh expensive jeep
>>14111625
>G wagon
>not being a legendary vehicle
Just because you think of the 2020 G65 full option, doesn't mean there aren't cheap ones from 90's ready to be used
shit list tbqh
this is so entry level
>>14111520
Except Apex has best taste.
>>14111700
if a Poopra is your favorite car yoour taste isnt that good at all
>>14110260
10. Mazda MX-5
awesome
>>14111705
Stop liking what I don't like; the thread.
>>14111677
truuuu lmaoo id have like 5 s13s 2 s14s 3 s15s that'd be tight bruh tired of these entry level shitters ahah!!
>>14111737
Damn what seats are those?
>>14110260
>no Civic Si
>no Type R
>>14111070
Red. They made it in fucking red. Now stop posting this shitty comment, no one cares that you know how many colors a ferrari came in.
OP here. Hate the messenger if you must, but this is not a list I compiled. This comes from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_Car_International
Mercs and gtrs and jaydee-em is fine, you're not wrong about owning those. You're not wrong about them being fine, even interesting cars. You're just a little bit less right than if you owned any of these on the list once in your life.
You've got 40, 50, 60 years to save up for one of the expensive cars. Meanwhile, get one of these on the list below now, because you can.
These don't have to be mint. All attainable for $0-$30k. If you have 30k, don't but a new Ford Taurus. Buy something interesting, with some soul. Get off the computer and actually work on your car, drive your car. Bond with it.
Miata
Elan
240z
SA, FB, FC Rx-7
Rabbit/Golf GTI
Quattro
M3
MR2
5 Turbo
300ZX
Elise
Boxster S
Impreza WRX
Own them for a few months even. Then you can go back to your s-13s, your lifted bro trucks, your FF hondas.
For the rest of the list, save up for a long ass time. When you're in your 50's and the kids have just moved away and you have grey hair, an AC Cobra is the perfect car for you.
>>14110531
They're overrated desu
>>14113140
>no civic
no thanks
>No Nissan Skyline GT-R
Dropped
The R32 GTR wiped the fucking floor with all the Porsche and other German bullshit
>>14113055
>civic
>all foreign cars
Wtf
>>14113414
more of a sports car than mr2 desu
>>14113410
>the vehicle single handedly responsible for killing global Group A touring cars
This tbqh
>>14113091
Read that the first model of every Ferrari made is produced in YELLOW (giallo)
Yellow represents the color for Modena, Italy here Enzo started his business. Red is the traditional Grand Prix/ Formula 1 Race car color for Italy.
>>14113422
because it was under rated sandbagged BoP and had favorable awd conditions the entire season
>>14113091
THIS was a question( not a statement ) as I have seen my fav Ferrari in a couple of colors and wondered how many variations the factory made, as I have no fucking clue and think it would be nice to have a stable of several dif colored 288's... I ASKED
>>14113418
Family front wheel drive sedan/hatch no match for enthusiast mid engine FR
>>14113469
except that stock for stock the civic blows the mr2 out of the water in handling and speed
its a neet enthusiast car but its not really performance without some major work
>>14113472
Let go of the anger and buyer's remorse. Even with $9/hr you can save up for a year, own an MR2, or even a nice WRX. Let go of your anger young one. There's no need for your jimmies to be rustled for your WHOLE life.
>>14113491
what
i chose the more expensive civic over the mr2
>>14113501
no wonder you think it's a good car
>>14113091
Sultan of Brunei India Blue 288 gto
>>14113506
?
It accelerated better, handled better, had a higher top speed, easier to mod, and it has more space
>>14113091
Ya could of just said this, instead of being an ASS HAT..
Ferrari SpA built red 288 GTOs.
All non-red GTOs were done by Pininfarina, and its worth noting that they were all post-production application, in other words they took red cars and changed the color after production.
>>14110741
>plastidipped badge
guarantee that poor supra has been fucked up by some retard refilling his vape
>>14113518
I don't want to ruin your ownership experience so here's your reply :^)
>>14113532
what is with /o/ and vaping
>>14111520
have you seen a supra in real life? it's fucking tiny
>>14113540
vaping goes hand in hand with the worst type of car "enthusiasts"
>>14113532
is this b8? the car is stock
>>14113543
not really
>>14111737
That interior is so fucking choice
>>14113532
That car is stock
>>14113543
99% of "the worst type of enthusiasts" wear clothes too anon
>>14113549
what kind of faggot speaks like this?
>>14113518
So does your mom but I still wouldn't drive her
>>14113541
But they weigh a lot.
Not like they can help it with that commercial truck tier lump under the hood, but they aren't light, nimble cars.
>>14113540
>>14113548
Vaping is acceptable for about a year in the hands of someone who has been having trouble kicking cigarettes.
After that, space flutes are just another shitty addiction. You might not realize it's happening to you, but that shit is making everything in your presence sticky and gross.
>>14113580
>i decide what people use vaping for and how long it takes them to get rid of an addiction
10/10
ITT forever rustled Civic owners who vape
We get it, you're retarded.
>>14113580
they don't weigh that much considering how stiff they are and they are nimble despite that massive lump up front.
the lower powered ones are surpringly light (about the same as ST205 celica), the extra weight comes from the uprated driveline brakes and wheels etc.
/o/tards are too hung up on weight
>>14113560
The kind that vapes
>>14113593
Objectively the best line of car ever.
>>14113587
If you're still getting intolerable nicotine shakes a YEAR after your last cig, you're a fucking Nancy and you're addicted to the vaping fluid. Congratulations, you should have just taken up dip, because at least then you wouldn't be insufferable about it "just being water vapor, bro" when I tell you to take that shit outside, or wait ten minutes instead of doing it in my car.
Vaping is for weak, shitty people.
>>14113805
what is your problem
>smoke
>oh man this is bad but i dont really wanna quit
>switch to vaping
>suddenly the bad guy
>>14113811
Vaping isn't not bad, you should still quit, I'm tired of smelling that shitty sweet garbage you want to breath everywhere, I'm tired of my work station being sticky when I start my shift because the 3rd shift operator lacks the courtesy or comprehension required to realize he should wipe up the vapor residue that ends up everywhere.
And I'm tired of watching white trash fog their kids.
>>14113899
what are you talking about?
not all vape is like that, that's just the garbage that dumb kids use
>>14113911
3rd shift guy is 56.
>>14113140
WRX Master race here. Tryna get a porsche next. For all it's worth wrx's are shit for bitches. Bitches love porsches
>>14110260
>mx-5 getting on the all time list among behemoths like carrera GT and mclaren F1
Seems hilarious at first sight, but if you think about it and what the car represents it's actually well deserved.
>>14113616
This. Everyone shits on the mk4 and acts like the only good thing about it is the engine
>>14111705
This desu. Supra is pigfat af. Just look.
>>14117456
Jesus christ cars.com get it together.
>>14117635
Fucking hilarious. I didn't know the 2jz weighed that much lol
>>14111507

No, they're not. I've driven several on your list and prefer my gtr.
