I came to a shocking realization today….

Thanks alot folks I also like 80s cars more than I'd like. Cars after OBD2 don't do it for me. I'd rather have an SVO or xr4ti or some other crazy stupid 80s car than a modern car. God modern cars got ugly, the new subaru/toyota is the best looking car to come out in some time.

After reading about car break ins here and the local police blotter I should start looking for a super-sensitive 80s car alarm which blurts, "step away from the vehicle" if anyone gets too close. Too bad 80s electronics aren't all that great.

Oooh! Oooh! I love 80's cars! I think we've had this conversation before, but I like having this conversation.

Some of my favorites:

1980's Trans Am GTA

1986 Shelby GLHS

1985-86 Mustang GT

1987 Buick GNX

1989 Nissan Maxima SE (I had one, and I miss it dearly)

1987 Shelby Lancer

1980's BMW M6

And of course...

1987 Shelby CSX

Ok I will play.

(in honor of the van thread, my 80's van!)

This was mentioned, don't know if I saw a pic, but one more can't hurt.

In reply to Rufledt:

That is just about perfect right there.

Fox Body Notch:

1989 Z28:

1984 Regal T-type, in beige:

1988 C1500:

and my all time favorite 80's car:

1989 Caprice 9C1 cop car.

2nd Generation Honda Prelude.

1st Generation Honda CRX.

(Well, y'all already took everything else I wanted to mention)

Close...it's an '82, '83, or '84. (and if '82 or '83 it has a fiberglass hood from the factory)

And that's a really nice example, by the way. So many have gone to crap.

But I found you one of these just today...you need it, really...

Alfa Spider - I had this identical car back in the '80's.

MR2 - My '86 was similar, but didn't look this good!

Celica...Technically a '90 I believe, but I liked this picture! Suzuki Swift GTi - Bought one of these new is '89, fun car!

F1 Cars were cool then too.

I'm more of an early 90's guy but I did love my 89 colt turbo, 88 integra, and my 85 Mustang.

Chevy wasn't the only one doing cop cars in the 80s ...

Oh and this thread needs more turbo dodge ...

I'm rather fond of my '86 M535i.

This right here - kleenex boxes with hair dryers

911, E30, and Trans Am are all a must.

1989 Toyota Celica ST is an oddball. Best friend in high school had one of these and it was fun, quick, and bulletproof.
