John Candy and Steve Martin beg to differ.

I still have the 5 custom bent wrenches it takes to get the damn thing off. I never did get it right and a rebuilt carburetor was like $600 so I sold it to someone I hated.

Whew. I ran to the driveway to see if it was out there.

I believe the Cimarron should be the winnar.

Another vote for Cimarron. Spell check wants to call it macaroni. Tells you something right there!

While it doesn't perhaps answer exactly the original question, I am at times amazed at how rarely the 350z is discussed as a viable performance car on this forum.

I have an 06 Malibu and Ms.Pigeon has an 06 maxx. Both have been incredibly reliable with just normal maintainance. Pretty dull to drive, but a solid car.

Now the pre 2004 Malibus were tuuuuuuuuurds.

I call them, and the Luminas before them, "Transportation appliances" Mostly reliable, but oh dear, what a dreary ride.

I remember seeing an IMSA race @ Riverside about 1982 with a Cimarron entered in it. If it were available now for the right price it might qualify as a grassroots car. In hindsight, though, it was probably a tube chassis car and only a "Cimarron" by name.

What I can't ever see becoming a grassroots project is a Bugatti Veyron. In fact, any Bugatti is probably disqualified.
