Hey everyone,

Not sure if we've ever had a thread describing some of our other performance vehicle experiences, and it seemed like it would be fun to read about some of the other cars everyone has driven (and how they compare to their saabs!).

My own list isn't too great just yet, but for the sake of starting the discussion..

- Various perf. Saabs, my own modified SPG clone and viggen, father's 9000 Aero, 9-5 Aero...as most know, a good compromise of driveability and performance.

- Other cars in the family, my own '88 Thunderbird Turbocoupe (great cruiser) and 85 Rx-7 (nothing like a rotary at 7krpm), and mother's mustang 5.0 (would be better if not for the Ford AOD transmission..)

- Friends cars: WRX STi (fast, great handling...but for some reason, just not all that fun), Pontiac Firebird Firehawk (GREAT car in a straight line), 350Z (fun, but it wears you out after a few miles), 66 Mustang w/worked 302 (fun, but more for the looks and the noise than the performance)

And the only car I've driven that I had a hard time giving up the keys for; a new Rx-8. I know most people either love or hate that car, but wow, what a well balanced, fun to drive little car. Transmission is almost perfect, decent ride, it just needed a few more ponies. Reliability, on the other hand...

Post up some of the unique/fun cars you all have driven/owned!
