..and then ignore them, like I do. That one's pretty nice though.
My all time favorite car that I would love to own is a Renault Turbo 2:

Just pure insanity. Take an econo box, the Renault 5, put the engine in backseat, a massive turbo on it and take it rally racing. I've driven one once for about 10 minutes and it was awesome.

Well, they did sell them here for many a decade. In fact, you beloved Jeep was part owned by Renault for awhile. The XJ was actually designed in France by Renault.



"beloved" Jeep is going a bit far (especially for an XJ)?

That's a "beloved" Ping Anser 4. I've had that almost as long as I've been married.

Another "beloved" item I have would be a Wilson A2000 from about 1983. Mine's not in quite this nice of shape. Has been relaced at least 5-6 times and the leather on the inside of the palm has worn out from use. Best $75 I think I've ever spent :D

Different strokes obviously. I'm sure it's an animal in it's own right but I'm just not into the "look" at all.

To me, this is a "tier 1" type car.

Again, different strokes. I'll take mine with a 428 CJ and a 4 speed. (I'll need a tire contract or arrangement with a local distributor)

I'd take that little hot hatch over the 'stang for sure. I mean they did so well with the XJ that it just makes sense that I'd like it.

I mean, if you like boring and generic (geriatric?), thats the car for you! :rofl:
