The new car thread got me thinking about all the old cars I want and for the most part afford but do not have.
New edge Mach one mustang
NA And NB Miata < Lots of want on those
80's turbo dodge
high HP Impala SS of the 94-96 flavor
Regal turbo T
SVO Mustang, or Thunderbird turbo coupe
I got it bad
Saab 96
Buick Turbo Regal
MG Magnette
MG T-series
Triumph TR6
Plymouth Cricket (but w/ a rotary swapped in)
old Ford F-100
EF Civic
A hot rod
A pre WW1 bike
A '70s Ducati 125cc sportbike
Edit: I forgot one of those ugly Darts (1962) preferable a wagon.
CRX... soon to change?
volvo with character
BMW 700CS
miata
aw11 mr2
Jeep CJ8 or FSJ pickup or FSJ cherokee
early 2nd gen or 3rd gen Fbody
BMW 2002 E30 M3 E28 M5 - should never have sold mine Porsche Turbo FJ45 Diesel FJ105
Having already had one, and thus knowing how good they really can be, I'd add a '65-'69 Corvair. With a well-tuned suspension, they're still one of the best-handling cars ever built.
BMW 2002
Starion / Conquest (Turbo + widebody)
Fiat X1/9
Supra (I don't care which iteration)
Ford RS200 (I would literally give body parts for this car)
Since Miata keeps coming up I'll say Viper since it's same vintage
Aston Martin DB7
Austin Healey 3000
Porsche 914
Pontiac Parisienne station wagon (my first car)
Last model Cadillac Eldorado
Triumph TR6
Oh hell with it, I want every old car ever made, I even want an Edsel...

Holy E36 M3, that was my first car too! LOL. Pillow top velour seats FTW!
I want a Chevette with swapped in Impulse Turbo or 3400 V6 drivetrain, 5 lug Fiero front end, narrowed Camaro LSD rear, and an HSR body kit in full rally livery.
But then again I'm pretty weird.

I just realized that I didn't post in this thread and should bump it up. There are only two old cars I really, really would like that are on my "to be owned" list:
1969 Camaro Z/28 with cross ram 1993 Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2 (LHD)
Oh look at that, here in Canuckland we can get LHD Lancia's

Too many to list, but to go for the top 10% of used cars i'd like and could buy now without going homeless:
MKIII supra turbo
aw11 MR2
AE86
240z
RX2,3,4 (wagon!), FB or FC RX7
REPU (only pickup i would really want)
240rs (kid at my college had one, but it was a rust bucket)
starion (with the box flares)
914
Miata
E30
'70 Mustang fastback would be cool, but i couldn't afford a nice one
I have a literal list of about a hundred used cars I search for sometimes, mostly all of which are specific, cheap, and sadly, rare.

Old cars I want?
All of them.
Seriously, there's not much in the classic car world that I don't find appealing in some way or another, from pre-War and brass-era cars to 50's cruisers to muscle cars to European sports cars and vintage Japanese stuff...
Any sort of list only represents what may be in my head at that moment.
