Here's mine. It's really interesting and focuses mostly on the cars people care about (classic Celicas, JDM specials, late rally Celicas, Mk3/Mk4 Supras) while giving you an appreciation for the less-celebrated generations, as giving the automotive context in different markets and racing info. Most importantly, it has lots of pretty pictures.

What is/are yours?

That RX-7 book cover oozes so much class it makes me want to drool. The Terminator book looks really cool—one of my favorite 'Stangs.

One of my most favorite automotive books. I just happened to come across a copy in a used book store one day in the "miscellaneous" section so naturally I had to buy it. If 80's cold war era politics, the American entrepreneurial spirit, and a Fiat built by Yugoslavians for American consumption even remotely interests you, try to find a copy. A must read for any true Jalop.

You earned 250 Doug DeMuro dollars :)
But I do really want to read it. Soon, I'll buy a copy.
