More DB5 love... just before the introduction of the Aston-Martin DB6, the factory had 37 short-chassis DB5 chassis models "left over" and so made a short run of 37 DB5 Volante convertibles. A few had 325 hp Vantage engines.

Surely the most elegant car to come out of Japan in our era.

When the New Beetle was introduced in 1997, VW had a great ad campaign. I bet some people didn't get it.

Always wanted one of these. This particular one, in this particular color, with these particular wheels.

I kick myself for not pulling the trigger on buying an FD 10+ years ago. "Meh, why would I spend $15k on that?"

I did have a Turbo II FC for while, though. Granted I stripped it in favor of an LS...

It would be cool to have a set of those cars with license plates John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

I also had the opportunity to buy a low-mile virgin FD in 2000, but passed on it in favor of an S2000. I had worked for Mazda in the 90's, so I knew the problems the cars had, even when left stock and treated/serviced properly. I could afford the payment, I just couldn't afford the issues if they were to arise (likely).

But I dream of them still, and always will.
