What's the coolest / fastest / most interesting car you have driven?

For me, it was the Ferrari F430 F1. I got to do 5 laps on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in it. Very fun. Here is a pic

My Dad also taught me how to drive in a 1969 Firebird. This was in 1991 so the car was a bit beat up but still fast and cool as well.

My current daily driver is a 2012 Camaro SS. She's pretty sweet as well.

Here is an older pic of my bit*hin' Camaro

She's had a few mods since this was taken. I've added a skip shift eliminator (prevents the car from forcing you to shift from 1st to 4th), new American Racing Torq-Thrust M wheels with a machined lip and black spokes, and I had the cheesy stick on rally stripes removed in favor of painted on high-gloss stripes.

The stock rims are her winter shoes now. Got a set of Pirelli Scorpion winter tires and drove her all though our 100" of snow this winter with no issues. As long as you don't drive like an a** it's all good.

I want to put in a supercharger but my wallet won't allow it. The cost of the supercharger + the inevitable speeding tickets are prohibitive ;;D

Inferno Orange Metallic paint is definitely not a stealth color. I get the stink eye from the local PD all the time.

Well, I've driven a corvette. Z28, Camaros. cadillacs. datsun 280 zs were fun. an older ragtop porsche. That was a gorgeous car. Firebirds.

Cool \w/

I had a buddy when I was in high school that had a 1983 Corvette. This was in 1990 or 1991. I never got a chance to drive it though :(

I had a 2004 GTO. It was basically the Holden Monaro re-badged for the United States. That was a fun car as well. Probably quicker off the line than my Camaro because it was a lot lighter. I ended up trading that car after I got t-boned by some kid that ran a red light :(

I wish Pontiac was still around because a Firebird based on the same platform as my Camaro would be pretty rad.

One of my cousins had a 2007 Pontiac Solstice. That was a pretty cool car as well. Quick little bugger.

Sweet rides above!!!

My very first car as a young lass was a 1975 Chevy Nova, two years younger than me. Decidedly uncool. When i joined the AF I bought myself an '86 Firebird(this was in 1992)with only 25,000 miles on it. I drove it into the ground. She was a good one. Then I had a Sunfire for a little bit until I found a 1997 Firebird. My current one(stock photo, not mine but looks exactly like this)untitled.png
I've been a Firebird/Trans Am fan since my '86. This is a 2001 and she just hit 73,500 miles. Since moving back to Maine I've realized that I need a beater to drive in the winter because this 'aint cutting it and I'm NOT getting rid of her!
My license plate: PNY WSE =D

Is it a WS6 T/A? A friend of mine had a WS6 and it was pretty fast.
