If you could order a non Mopar new- what would you get?

[69bronzeT5]

We've done what if you could order a Charger new but how about a non Mopar. If you could order any non Mopar new, what would it be?

[maxwellwedge]

A Mustang with personalized plates?            

[69 OUR/TEA]

Very easy for me.......

[Cooter]

1966 A/C Cobra, 427, Side oiler....

[69bronzeT5]

Very easy for me.......

Good choice!! Here's the one me and my dad restored between 2000 & 2002.....

[69bronzeT5]

My choices would be....

-1970 GSX, 455 Stage 1 4spd, Saturn Yellow, black interior
-1969 GTO, Ram Air 3 4spd, blue, blue interior (exactly like my dad had)
-1973 Trans Am, 455 SD 4spd, dark blue, blue interior & light decals (bird & name decals)

[adauto]

Thought we were talking "new" here... Mustang.. Shelby or Saleen....  

[69bronzeT5]

Thought we were talking "new" here... Mustang.. Shelby or Saleen....  

New or old..... If we're talking new, I'd order a black 392 6 speed SRT Challenger.....fully loaded. Either that or a black Roush Mustang

[69charger440]

I would simple walk every where!!! Or maybe get a New Cadillac

[bobs66440]

New:  Corvette ZR1 - 638 hp - 205 mph  Baddest of the bad-ass factory cars. OH YEAH!!  

Old: 1967 427 Cobra -Pretty much the baddest car of all time. Not very practical, but OMG what a ride!  


Both in blue! 

[bajaherbie]

ford raptor truck for me...... these things are bad-a$$. dodge is planning on something similar i think.

[Troy]

Well, I wasn't old enough to drive until 1987 and there wasn't anything I'd have bought new. The big thing from Chrysler was the 2.2 Turbo and Buick had the Grand National. Mustang and Camaro were just getting fuel injection. I wasn't even born when most of the cars I like were produced (my first two were a 1970 Challenger and a 11968 Charger). There are several "new" (as in new today) cars that I'd like to own - and not many are made by Chrysler so that's easy. Unfortunately, I'm cheap and I don't like taking that huge depreciation hit so I don't buy new cars (ok, I bought ONE but there was a good reason and I certainly didn't lose money on it).

And Bronzey, you broke your own rules for the thread. What's with buying a "loaded" 392 Challenger. Either you want a fast car or you want a car that used to be fast before it went on a McDonald's diet. In 1968 the Shelby Mustang became a luxury car and the performance fell dramatically. I guess the only people who could afford it weren't really into competing.

[TruckDriver]

Any one of these would work for me

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

New?   Ill take one of these please....sex on wheels

[Manfred318]

A Mustang with personalized plates?            

If I were to buy a car it would be a '70 442

For a truck Id probably buy an IHC. Ive always wanted one.

[Ghoste]

69 Cobra Jet Fairlane or 69 GTO Ram Air III car.

[ACUDANUT]

Why, did you just inherit a load of money...Fix that 69 Charger.

[GPULLER]

[ACUDANUT]

Troy, you are a young gun. "Well, I wasn't old enough to drive until 1987" 
Makes me feel OLD.

[Tilar]

No joke.. I was already through 2 divorces in 87. 

[CrAzYMoPaRGuY]

Take me back to 1970, Monteverdi HAI 450ss.

I would love to have ordered a new 1974 Jensen Interceptor... but mine will suffice!


Brand new not much interests me non-MoPar. Maybe an Aston Martin?

[Magnumcharger]

A new Lamborghini...

[twodko]

Troy, you are a young gun. "Well, I wasn't old enough to drive until 1987"

Me too, and I read this Monday morning! 

Back to the thread............I'd buy 10 acres of a Sierra meadow and a bicycle.

[68pplcharger]

A new Lamborghini...

No doubt... 

[gtx6970]

Very easy for me.......

same here.
Saturn Yellow 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1 , hands down one of the top 5 cars on my bucket list to own

[Paul G]

I have to go with the Buicks myself. 1970 GSX, and another Buick, GNX in 87. For a new car today, Cadillac CTSV. I should really look in to a CTSV. 

[Charger-Bodie]

The 455/4 speed Trans Am is definitely on the list. When I was a teenager my boss had a white/blue one. I loved that car. 

[ACUDANUT]

We've done what if you could order a Charger new but how about a non Mopar. If you could order any non Mopar new, what would it be?

Wait.. New today or new back then ? You did not specify..I am not much of a dreamer, and to me it's just a dream wish..Kind of like what you would buy if you won the lottery...

[1969chargerrtse]

Either my old 396 Pace car, my old 69 RS Z/28, or the vette I sold to buy the Charger.  I'd rather have another Mopar next to the Charger though.  The Charger front out, the Coronet rear out.

[bobs66440]

Love the 'Vette roadster. I had a '72 coupe that color...same wheels etc. I miss that car...

[rt green]

69 gto would be my choice. no mopars you said, right? other than that, 59 El camino

[1969chargerrtse]

Love the 'Vette roadster. I had a '72 coupe that color...same wheels etc. I miss that car...

Yep, thanks.  72 454/4 spd #s match etc,A/C PW,PS,PB etc... Nice car, no issues. 60k miles at the time.

[1969chargerrtse]

69 gto would be my choice. no mopars you said, right? other than that, 59 El camino

Love both those.  69 GTO conv with hide aways, and 59 Elcamino or vert.  

[bobs66440]

Yep, thanks.  72 454/4 spd #s match etc,A/C PW,PS,PB etc... Nice car, no issues. 6ok miles at the time.

Cool! I'll tell you, I was amazed at how well that car drove. I always heard bad things about the early C-3 Vettes, but mine drove very well and was real comfortable (though REALLY hot in summer). I could have drove it cross-country no problem...

Oh yeah it drove great.  The only thing was the exhaust from the side pipes always drifted in the car, but my Charger does the same thing. 

[mauve66]

89 suzuki swift gti

[chargerrt]

As of right now, I'd order a '68.5 R-Code Mustang fastback. Presidential Blue, White C-stripe, and a red interior. gotta be a 4-speed too.  I've also always like the 66-67 Olds 442 W-30 trak pack cars. Maybe a black convertible    Or even try to snatch up one of the original Cobra Daytona Coupes when they were brought back from dominating the world in '65 and offered for sale.

[ChgrSteve67]

I'll take a Tesla Roadster

[ChargerD100]

OR

[1969chargerrtse]

Oh, a non Mopar " new ".  In that case a new Mustang Gt conv or Camaro SS conv.  No wait, a Chevy Volt!!  

[ACUDANUT]

I got you all beat...A 2006/2007 Ford GT (not a wustang)

[moparstuart]

89 suzuki swift gti

i want the matching metro 

[derailed]

If this thread were 2 years ago I would have said a G8 GT.

[mauve66]

89 suzuki swift gti

i want the matching metro 

metro can't compare to a gti

[Charger-Bodie]

How about a LeCar?

[68 CHARGER R/T]

i second that ,but must be with the muncie 4 speed  70 olds 

[HollyWoodCharger]

For me it would have to be the 87 Buick Grand National Regal or Buick Regal T-Type in either traditional Black or Bright White.....

I actually tried to buy a new one, but being out of High school only 2 years and working a part-time job while going to trade school, it just wasn't financially possible at that time....

[Rolling_Thunder]

If I got something new...    

2011 Aston Martin DBS




Something old ?  

1970 Chevelle SS    LS-6  4-speed

[TruckDriver]

Wish you would of posted a bigger pic of that Chevelle. Really looks like a nice looking car. I would love to see it better 

[1969chargerrtse]

Yeah, Ha.  I had one in my 20's.  It was really fast.

[68pplcharger]

Agreed, I couldn't read the Max PSI on the sidewall of the rear tire when I zoomed in. 

[Rolling_Thunder]

Edited my post for the smart asses
