  However, how about those

>cars which you've owned,



1)'96 Mazda Miata (present dd)

2) '95 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 swb (traded for Suburban)

3) '67 Mustang Coupe (in storage awaiting restoration)

4) '95 Chevrolet Suburban (wife's present dd)

5) '91 Lexus LS400 (traded for Miata)

(I have owned or own all of these. Every one of them was in my posession within

the last 2 years.)



> or like to have owned?



1)Ferrari 308 GTB (one of my boyhood passions. You know, Magnum P.I.?)

2)Porsche 930 (R-R-R)

3)Lamborghini LM002 (Go anywhere. Go anywhere fast.)

4)'51 Studebaker Commander (You know, habitat and stuff. Right Jeannie?)

5)'58 Plymouth Fury (Christine will live forever.)

(there are many others I would *like* to have owned. Maybe one day I'll own

them

all)



>  Driven or possibly driven?



1)'87 BMW 325ic (Wife's dd when we met)

2)'96 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra (Was what I went out to buy the day I bought

my Miata)

3)'64 VW Bug (A friend's dd)

4)'96 BMW Z3 (drove it on a lark. It's OK. Simply OK.)

5)'95 Lexus LS400 (Father-in-law's dd. Whew, whatta car. Drove it to Palm Beach

back in January.)



>Sat in and made "vrooom, vroooom" noises?



1)Porsche 968 (Local auto show beauty)

2)'96 Pontiac Firebird Formula (considered before the Cobra and Miata.)

3)'95 Chevrolet Corvette (Found it on an Acura lot. Couldn't talk the wife into

letting me trade the Lexus for it.)

4)'96 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible (Beautiful, powerful car. Too limited

for the dealer to let me drive it.  :^{  )

5)'85 Rolls Royce (mother-in-laws old dd. Traded for the '91 Lexus that was

traded for my Miata.)



  Oh, no, here it comes...how about

>a "5 Favorite Cars List"?



1) Ones with engines that go fast

2) Ones that look fast

3) Ones that cruise stylishly

4) Ones that have cloth, retractable tops

5) Ones that can be driven at any speed and look good.

(sorry, too many choices to make here. I guess I just like cars in general)



Scott and Woody, who *always* qualifies #1 in dad's eyes.
