Kinja'd!!!

Is if you? Is it your brother/sister? Is it your uncle or aunt? Who has the best ride in your pride? (alternate title)

In the Cookie Clux Clan, hmm.... who has the best car?

Welp for the most part, probably 80+% of us have work trucks of some sort. Most with some modifications per work (ladder rack, tool box, frames, etc.). Besides that, the typical old work horse W210/W163's with a dab of Accord/Camry.

My carcachas (jalopies) are pretty cool but I think out of all of us, my brother’s 2017 Mazda 6 Touring is max dopeness.

File photos, but similar to this:

The rarest car in my Family would have to be my Father’s 2014 BMW 335i GT, although my 2011 535i Manual might be just as rare. Now for a cool factor, my nephew has a Plum Crazy colored Challenger R/T that is awesome for a High School kid.

Now if we are talking bout cars in my family that would be cool if they were kept to present times, my uncle had a low light Karman Ghia convertible with factory fog lights, My father had a 66 Sport Fury 383 4 barrel 4 speed.

So, comparing current family fleets vs family fleets (I have 6 sisters/2 brothers), mine wins (Cougar, ‘15 Tacoma, ‘14 GC Overland). My brother-in-law probably second (‘13 Golf R, ‘14 GC Limited). The rest are all some form of Equinox/Traverse primary vehicle.

I am getting less exciting. I had a couple of AMG cars in the past, one I kept for 7 years. But I got over it, and it just doesn’t get me going so much now. I find the purr of the little diesel just as soothing, and with slowly decaying roads and insane traffic, I just don’t enjoy the performance cars so much anymore. the fintail is a forever car, I’ve had it for over 20 years now.

It’s funny to think that my mom with a white Camry once had a 61 Impala convertible or a Beetle with a Porsche 912 engine, that back in the 90s my family fleet included a 60 Country Sedan, 66 Galaxie, and 68 Fairlane all at once, my late father who’s last new car was a Chrysler T&C once had a 70 Mustang and numerous old sporty motorcycles, etc.

My grandparents have a 1984 Audi 4000 tucked away in a shed (not running). The car is red with brown velour and a manual transmission. They also have a blue Nissan/Datsun Hardbody (D21, regular cab, 4x4, manual), also not running. Those would be cool if they’d been kept up.

I have an uncle who daily drives a 1998 Mercedes-Benz ML320, which is nothing special except that it’s been in the family since new and has been, against all odds, quite reliable for being the first model year of a new vehicle on a new platform from a new factory in Alabama. (I believe Consumer Reports gave the early ML a solid black dot in predicted reliability.) I’m told the transmission no longer behaves as well as it used to, requiring more manual shifting than it should, but every month that the vehicle soldiers on means more money that my uncle saves for the vehicle’s eventual replacement, if/when the transmission finally dies.

I have another uncle with a Porsche 911 of the 993 series. He bought it used at some point specifically because he wanted one of the last air-cooled 911s. He doesn’t drive it much and seems to hope it will appreciate in value. I’ve never ridden in the car and, frankly, it’s not that appealing to me except in the abstract (i.e. one of the last air-cooled, hand-build 911s). It probably doesn’t help that this uncle is kind of a d-bag.

One of my cousins drives a Saab 9-3 2.0t convertible in Lynx Yellow, which I have to admire just for its rarity and overall aesthetic.

Oh, and there’s a Saab 9-3 Viggen 4-door hatchback, grey, still in the family.

So in the immediate family either my father with his corvette or me with my S600. An uncle of mine though...off the top of my head he currently has 2 W221 S550, a 220 S55, a 220 S600(sold), a 221 S65, 2 W222 Maybachs, a Ford GT(sold), an SLS roadster, numerous escalades, and an R129 300SL. He has had a few planes, but takes most pride in his wood boat collection. A few of them have Liberty V12 aircraft engines. He’s a bit of a gear head.

Like other replies, there are 2 or 3 rad cars in their own cool way and not radder than the other to decide a winner

It’s well in the past, but a sad story - he was a talented jazz pianist but an aggressive lymphoma got him. We still listen to some of his recordings now and then. White with the fake wood paneling.

My parents were more into luxury cars, and I’m the only one in my family with the weird/rare/impractical car bug.

My brother has a lightly modded Mazdaspeed 3 but he prefers sleepers. It makes more torque than my Ferrari, even before the tune.

its a fairly even battle in the family.

i have the v8 bug, the loud 71 truck, a few 57 chev truck, a 4x4 blazer truck, and a manual 4x4 v8 truck, soon to be a ford model t 4x4 manual underslung frame v8......... most are “under construction”.....

one of my uncles has..... a 61 chev truck, a 66 mustang, a 71 chev truck, 74 chev truck, 78 camaro...... and something else that is escaping me.

another uncle has a 65 chev truck, and some 4x4 datsun trucks.

my cousins have some fun junk, but its not nearly as crazy, ranging from old 65 ish ford trucks to old 4x4 squarebody suburbans. to mini 4x4 trucks.

the other side of the family has a nice old 71 bronco, and some fox mustangs on the extended cousins.

one of my friends has a bunch of old drilling equipment, and its all mounted on old mid 60s trucks. and there is a collection of old falcons laying in the backyard.

its a pretty even playing field........

Other than that there’s nothing of interest except a family member’s dirt track Fox Body.

It is, I’m trying to convince him to either blow it, boost it, or go ITBs. This it would take it all the way, a completed build.
