Well my ride is nothing to brag about just a 1994 Ford escort.Went with something the got "Better" gas milage then was I was drving before.But if the subject was your Favorite ride you ever had.Then it would have been my 1971 Pontiac lemans which the body style looks alot like the GTO's with only a few minor differences.Gotten it for $600 due to the last owner had it torn down and non running.My baby brother who is good with cars had rebuilted the engine.
After the rebuilt it ran like a bat out of Hell.On a trip from Ft.Worth to Waco some joker in a Mustang decided he wanted a race end up losing.Was going 100 MPH and still was neck and neck and was only halfway down the petal.My brother who was driving at the time goose the petal and made the nose of the car raise up indicating the lemans still had alot left over...he decided to back off. (LOL)
End up getting rid of the car cause the frame crack on it twice due to the engine having so much torque.Would had kept it if I could have afford to properly reinforced the frame.To this day I still regret getting rid of it.
