Scratch that itch?
This was brought up in my mustang thread but got me thinking.
What vehicles have you had the itch to buy but never have for one reason or another?
I have 4 that I'd eventually like to own.
69/70 Chevelle
98-02 Trans Am WS6
C5 Vette
67-73 Camaro
Others that I've toyed with the idea but don't really have an itch are newer camaro ZL1 or Mustang GT500, 350, etc.

Re: Scratch that itch?
Audi R8 is the only thing that comes to mind that I could actually afford.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Re: Scratch that itch?
'69 Camaro RS/SS
Wrangler - basically any Wrangler.. just been on my mind since I saw one as a little kid.
Ford Sierra RS Cosworth - I had the little brother.
Corvette - Kind of similar to the Wrangler.. for some reason the C5Z still holds a special place for me.
Aston Martin - Obviously out of my price range..

Re: Scratch that itch?
Which Aston? You can get V8s pretty damn cheap.

Re: Scratch that itch?
First generation Viper GTS Coupe. I could probably afford one of I really wanted to but I've always heard they are trash.
Re: Scratch that itch?
There are a lot. Ill run a short list:
-71 Cuda. Doesn't matter what trim. That car along with 69 Charger are the best looking muscle cars.
-Shelby Cobra Kit car. Not a ford guy but it was done right.
-Viper. Always wanted one just for the cool factor. Prices have come down a lot.
-GTR. Because Godzilla
-2015+ Challenger. Hellcat would be first choice, but building a lower model into a power monster for much less has crossed my mind.
-Prowler. No performance awards, but hot rod styling is still awesome. Can find in the 20k range too.
-EVO 9. One day if they arent all trash and 30k.
-Saturn Sky Redline. Like a miata on steroids.
-thats it for now...

Re: Scratch that itch?
Only ones for me are:
Current GT350
Current GT500
Viper Coupe (any generation as long as it's the hard top)
That's about it for me honestly. All the other cars I've ever really wanted, I now own (Stealth and RS), or are so far out of my price range that unless I win the lottery I won't ever have one (F40, 488, McLaren 720 etc.).
Also really surprised not one person so far has said Raptor
