What are the five best looking cars you've owned?

If you're like me, certain cars you've had really struck a chord with you and you looked back at them a little more than others.

My top 5 in order:

1. 2007 BMW Z4 COUPE 3.0si
2. 1990 300zx (modded with 18 inch wheels and a custom purple paint job)
3. 2016 Porsche Cayman S with x73 sports suspension and 20 inch wheels
4. 2020 BMW M2 Compeition
5. 1989 Ford Mustang 5.0LX notchback with custom blackpaint

Unfortunately don;t have access to pics of all them but here are a few

Drove around in a Starion during high school and loved the hell out of that car. The little melodic chimes were so apropos.

One of my friend's has a gorgeous Starion that he has had since high school. The thing is immaculate and quick AF. He actually has 2 now. There are a couple on BAT if you are feeling like making it a reality to own one again. LoL

My list:

Just 5!?

2006 Porsche GT3


1965 Lamborghini Miura SV


1955 300 SL Gullwing


GT-R 34 V-spec Nur


2015 Bentley Flying Spur

I think that is a pretty well rounded group. LoL
