I have been playing with the idea of a Willy's Pickup.... I have no idea why. I just like the look.

ok, anyone here spent any time at all driving a pantera?
thoughts if so?
Prone to overheating, unless properly caressed. Makes good sounds.
i am exactly the same wayQuote:

My co-worker out in California has one, I have not ridden in it. He's a pretty sharp engineer so if you have any questions I could certainly ask. He has owned his possibly since new or shortly after.Quote:

Porsche is becoming ever more mainstream in the products they produce. Not saying this is you, but I'll bet this draws in a lot of buyers who have no idea how expensive these things are to maintain. Maybe it all comes out in the wash with higher re-sale values.Quote:

All SUVs are slowly turning into wagons. Look how each generation of the CR-V has evolved, for example.
that is what i meanQuote:

512tr was amazingly good for its age, but BIG
maranello was like a modern v8 vantage, a compliment, but in that respect kind of ordinary
chevelle ss 454 was an absolute blast and shockingly tight / well screwed together
plymouth roadrunner is a goddamn mess ... four turns of the wheel to take a gentle curve, no brakes
the search continues. pantera seems like a great way to show up at a disco to do some blow
You said what I was thinking. Scarey.
Now you are talking. Why not a YENKO Cannonball tribute Camaro 427 if you are so inclined. Buy them all day for less than that Pantera.
Embrace your inner cowboy.

So like the reverse of what's happened to the Outback?Quote:

oooohhh i like your styleQuote:

but i like the menace of the chevelle more than the prettiness of a pony car. forgot - as pony cars go the challenger is also a great car to drive.

When I hear Yenko, I'm thinking white Corvair with blue stripes and about 240hp.
wouldn't that be great? all i need to do now is be as rich as the snobs in greenwich!!Quote:
