Mopar Duke Fan Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 I have to say #1 for me is my '70 Dodge Challenger...I like pretty much all mopars though, would be very happy to own a '68 Super Bee or a '71 Demon.... My dad and uncle both have 2nd gen Chargers. Another uncle has a '66 Charger w/ a 440. It's the prettiest 1st gen I have ever seen.My grandpa has a '47 Plymouth, Moonshiner special... It's actually what's called a business coupe. It's got a big trunk w/ a few hidden compartments.Non mopar cars?My favorites are '67 Fire Bird w/ the 400 Ram Air IV and a muncie 4 speed. Or a '69 Mercury Cougar XR7 Eliminator.Any of the BOP GTOs or 442s or GSs... I like... Just not really into Chevys that much... Or Fords... I like GT350s, Mach 1s, bosses... But that normal mustangs and torinos don't do squat for me... Neither do the chevelles or camaros...except for one... a '71 Camaro RS SS. Now that's a bad ass car....So what are some of ya'lls favorites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoDuke'sGirl Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 I like Jeep Wagoneers. And I love bright shiny yellow cars! They just catch my eye how bright & pretty they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost_sheep3 Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 '69 Charger of course, done up as a General Lee, but it is probably going to be a loooooooong time before I get that, if ever.More realistic to own...I've had my eye on a '65 Impala that has been practically abandoned in town. If I had the money to walk up and offer cash for it, I would see if I could buy it. Guy's got it parked next to his garage and I haven't seen it move in almost 3 years (though the parking space occasionally changes).I like the '65 - '68 Impala's, though it's got to have the fast back and be 2-door...not into the 4-door models.LS3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 i like 1980's Chevy and GMC trucks and blazers and of corse 1969 Dodge Chargers painted like the General Lee or all Black and 1969 SS Camaros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSI DUKE Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Besides the General Lee. My other favorite would be 82 Olds Cutlas Supreme. They rock in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobie Hartkins Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 My favorite practical car is either a Toyota Corolla S or a Camry and my favorite sports car is either a Ferrari 308gts or a Lamborghini Countach!

Meadowmufn Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Just one of my many favorites.... My dad had a chance to buy a one year old 1954 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing for $5,000. He wishes he had. Those things go for $500k or more now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Nice Mercedes, Mufn.There are loads of muscle cars I'd like, so I'll probably have to make at least one more post. Like Roth, I'd also go for a Chevelle, although I'd have the '70 (it was a good year ).My BMW choice would be a '80s 635 CSi.I've always preferred the original Audi Coupe Quattro to the Sport. This is the one they used on 'Life on Mars' sequel 'Ashes to Ashes'.I'll finish this post with another 2-door German coupe from the '80s - there's something I still like about the 500 SEC.

Roth Potter Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I never liked Mercedes, but all the other ones are very nice! I might be wrong, but that those Gullwing wheels are not stock I think. They look more recent then the rest of the car.Hoss, have you seen this verson if the SS yet?I mean the grill. For the a grill running from one side through to the other looks way better in my opinion then one which stops before the headlights.

Cooter and Petey Willis both had '68 Chevelles in Dukes. I'd still have to give my preference to the angular grille on the '70. It also appears on the El Camino - I wouldn't say no to one of these either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roth Potter Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Never liked Mercedes? How about the updated version of the car above?The front of the SLS is very nice. But just as Jeremy Clarkson said, after the rear wheels they just stopped designing it. It all very good and aggressive looking at the front and the rear is all watery and sad looking.I wonder when F1 will get a new Safety Car. I think Bernd Mayländer Doesn't want a new one a .I know what you mean about the '68 and '69 Chevelles. Cooter and Petey Willis both had '68 Chevelles in Dukes.

HossC Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I thought I should include some British cars in my list.OK, the AC Cobra had some help from a Texan chicken farmer .The lines of the original E-Type Jaguar (XK-E) still take some beating.And now a couple of cars made even more famous by appearing in Bond movies. First, the Silver Birch Aston Martin DB5 which made its Bond debut in 'Goldfinger'.Or how about a Lotus Esprit Turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roth Potter Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Top Gear had a review of a new sort of E-type produced by some other company, that one was very nice too. I believe Jeremy was so tempted by it he would almost call it the best car ever or something like that.That New Jaguar reviewed on Top Gear was very good looking, Great sound and styling. I just wished remembered it's name...The Esprit was in James Bond no? I remember a story from Top Gear when they said the head of Lotus parked a prototype car in front of the James Bond production office so everyone could see it. This meant the producer wanted that car in their next Bond movie.A lot of Top Gear and guesses. But I'm quite sure part of what I just told happened. I remember quite a lot, but always forget some details about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember quite a lot, but always forget some details about it. I think the story about parking in front of the production office was in Richard Hammond's 50th anniversary look at James Bond cars. That would have been to get the 1976 Esprit (the one that turned into a submarine) into 'The Spy Who Loved Me'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie Hartkins Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 oddly enough, and I didn't realize this until years later, my two VERY favorite cars are the 1987 Toyota Corolla GTS coupe ( The one with pop up lights) AND the 1987 Mercedes 450 SEL with winshield wipers on the headlights!!
