Newer members may not know about the old 'Choose One' threads (which pre-date Retro-Rides itself interestingly)...the rules are simple: Choose a car from those offered - money is not to be in your criteria, imagine all cars are of equal value. Car 1 - Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R:  Car 2 - Maserati Biturbo:  Car 3 - Capri 2.8i:  Car 4 - Mercedes 300SE Convertible:  Car 5 - '69 Camaro SS:  Car 6 - Holden Monaro CV8:  Car 7 - Volvo 262C:  Car 8 - MkII Jaguar:  Off you go then chaps...comments are welcome. And don't say 'the silver one' ;D ;D. |

Camaro. However svelte and cool the merc is and however much i want the capper not much can touch a 350+ yank-mobile in the 'want' stakes.

I've gone for the Camaro as well, though it was tight...I didn't know that much about classic J-tin until pretty recently, and that Skyline runs the Chevy pretty damned close. ;D

Too easy! gotta be that yank hunk of junk!  Hard to get that £-worth out of ya head, it may well get to that though if we have to stop using them. full stop. for now i'll be doing burn outs and power slides in a Camaro  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |

Easy for me - monaro
Strip the running gear out and drop the lot into my Monza - Discard the shell - job done ;D
Is that against the rules?

most random choice of cars ever ;D - stacklight would be high on the lists of anything - but anything compared to a proper skyline fades into insignificance

Masarati Bi-turbo straight away. I've worked on a couple of those when I was in the trade and it was the most beautifully put together beast i've had the pleasure to tinker with. Shame it looks like a freakin' Proton  But thats where the challenge would be, i'd love to go all 'Tranny and Susanah' on one of those puppies |

Camaro for me - Skyline's OK, but I'm getting pretty bored of all this J-tin.

SWMBO picked the Merc as well.....have to say after the Camaro/Skyline it would have been my 3rd choice.

I voted VOLVO.
Probably will kick myself for not choosing the Maserati when it arrives though.

Had to go for the Merc. Slammed and rimmed would be the ultimate summer ride |

Skyline for me, never really been into Jtin but the more I see it on here, the more I'm warming to it, nice list though any fro the list would do me, SWMBO wanted the Capri though |

hmmm, tough call.
however, ive predictably voted merc.
two things could make it better.
1 - it wasnt a convertible.
2 - it was mine.

skyline, easy. Although the jags nice.
The maserati would have won if it wasnt so damm ugly. Its not that disimilar from my rocco shape wise, but just doent do it for me.
