    GTA was on my list. Before I bought my e21 i seriously considered an Alfetta "Sport Sedan" that was on ebay before passing up due to excess doors (not this one of course):

    Twist my head around evey time I see one of those olde Mercedes wagons...

    Land Rover Defenders are cool too, but like old Alfas, I file them in the I-dont-hate-myself-or-my-wallet-that-much category.

    Also like just about any late 60s/early 70s Datsuns. 510, 620, 240z, doesn't matter.

    '65 Riviera

    None of those are really guilty pleasures though, I just like them.

    How about slammed Foresters?

      Most of you guys chose cool cars.  I thought the guilty pleasure thing was to choose something you like that's dumb, like Rowley and I did.

        well, if you feel a little guilty admitting you like it, it counts.  for instance, I feel guilty that ANY dodge is on my list of cool cars.

              I think an original beetle would be a super fun winter beater...

              except heat is nice...

              and freeways...

              but rear-engine slidey fun!

                  This. A lot of you just chose neat cars lol. I Was more hoping for cars that you secretly like yet don't tell your friends kind of thing haha. You would never see me with a Mitsubishi flag in my garage... But I couldn't help myself to buy one.

                    I spent a lot of time in years past reading Super Street magazine, and have a deep love of all things JDM. I'd kill for an NSX, FD, MR2, or my dream car.... A Hakosuka.

                    I've also always had a thing for super clean EK hatches... If I ever find a clean unmolested one in white, I'll be hard pressed not to buy it.

                    Love me some super street... Currently sitting next to 40+ copies. Along with a ton of other modified mags

                        I've always thought these were cool.

                        They have the round 90's style and a 1.8L V6 5 speed......why they ever made it, I don't know.

                                        I honestly have only changed the oil and drove it around the block. Need an idle valve I'm getting this weekend. Then I'll street tune it on wastegate pressure, then bring it to the dyno for mbt tuning  

                                        Should easily clear 900whp on e85, but I'm shooting for 6-700whp daily.
