In Finland you can register your car as a ‘museum vehicle’ if it’s 30 years old or older and in good condition. This means it’s exempt from taxes but you can (or should) only use it 30 days out of a year. Let’s celebrate by posting our favorite cars from 1987!

Wait, why 1987?

In any event, lets gets some Esprits in here. 1987 featured both the last gasp of the old angular model:

And the introduction of the new rounded, but still quite wedge-shaped design:

I’m curious on how they will enforce this, I mean it’s not like they are installing tracer devices.

Or maybe that’s why you said “should”...

Plenty of great cars were around in this year.

If I had to pick the best new arrival, probably this:

Kinja'd!!!

199mph? That’s so last year, how about 201mph.

I’d say 1985-1995 was a great time for cars in general, in the same way people like 1965-1975 so much.
