Oppo, welcome again to the Dream Garage game! Tonight’s challenge should be pretty straightforward, considering the title.

Here are the rules:

You have a three vehicle garage...

Each car must be from the same brand ; but I’ll allow luxury divisions e.g: Toyota and Lexus are allowed.

Each car also has to be from the same model year ; you can choose any year you want.

I suggest you choose a brand and year with some good variety ; it’s best to cover more areas after all.

And that is all, have fun choosing your cars~

I’ll take Jaguar’s 1992 lineup plox:

And yes that wagon counts, it was a factory prototype that was almost put into production.

That makes the year about 1970, when you factor in all the vehicles.

I’d have preferred a pre-facelift XJS but then I wouldn’t get the XJ220.

It would have to be 1968 or something

The Celica was only sold from 1970 onwards though, no such thing as a 1968 Celica exists.

1970 also fits as it was the last year for the 2000GT and the FJ40 was still being produced. This makes it the only year where you could buy all three new.

I’d say current year Jaguar.

- F Pace for daily driving duties.

- XJL for road trips and such.

- F Type SVR as the weekend car

Potentially any year from 1993-1998, I guess.

The Citroën option is usually the best option though, I love your choices.

Not quite. I didn’t specify this, but pre-facelift Xantias were only sold with the V6 in a short timeframe during 1997. 1997 was also the last year of the 2.0 16V ZX. As for the XM, the 2.5TD was built from 1994 right until the bitter end.

RT > EL_ULY 08/26/2016 at 17:11

Any ?

1986 Chevrolet Chevette.

1986 Chevrolet Cavalier.

1986 Chevrolet Celebrity.

Toyota, 2012. Final year of the LFA, first year of the FRS, final year of the pre-spindle grille Lexus LS (although I think the current LS wears the new grille quite well). A car for when I want go really fast, a car for when I want to feel like I’m going fast, and a car for when I just want to be comfortable. I’m not an off-roader, but I think at the time they still had the FJ Cruiser and that Lexus/Toyota Land Cruiser thingy. That’s all enough car for me.

RT > MultiplaOrgasms 08/26/2016 at 17:13

Aha, that explains it. I didn’t realise the Xantia was the V6 model, clever choice.

I don’t know about absolute fantasy dream cars, but for realistic cars, 80s MBs are hard to beat. Just needs some G-Wagen content:

(this could be any year roughly 1982-85)

Great choice, the Land Cruiser 70 was/is also made overseas too.

Love the Gintama profile pic btw.

I posted my reply before looking at all the comments, but it looks like you and I were thinking the same. My only addition was the final year of the pre-spindle grille Lexus LS, which I think was a really nice looking large sedan.

MultiplaOrgasms > RT 08/26/2016 at 17:16

It’s also the Activa spec as evidenced by the spoiler, so theoretically they can pull 1.2g in corners.

82-85 since it’s after the W201 goes into production and before the W123 gets replaced? Clever choice.

Been holding the record since 1999, and so far nothing has ever come anywhere close to it.

fintail > RT 08/26/2016 at 17:24

Exactly. Maybe a narrower timeframe than that, too, as W201 production didn’t begin until the very end of 1982 and W124 sedan production beginning early 1985.

Even I like them, they have charm. They’re pretty cool as far as budget cars go, very Jalop too. Even the people who dislike them have to admit that they are a piece of automotive history in the end.

Don’t forget to hoon a Chevy Celebrity Eurosport by the way.

Lancia, 1986.

Delta HF AWD, the Integrale came later on so this is the next best thing.

Thema 8.32, it came with a real Ferrari engine stock.

Delta S4, no explanation necessary.

Runners up include 1979 for Saab, 1991/1992 for Mazda and 1989/1999/2009 for BMW.

Reminds me of this 1970 advert for Chevy. They were on top form in this era.

I could have sworn the celica started earlier. Either way. That would be an epic three car garage.

That’s an early 70 ad since it still has a 69 Camaro instead of the all new 70 1/2 car

1990 or 1991 Honda.

NSX, CRX Si, Acty (not sure if pickup or van version).

And, because of my DD/Track/Burn(outs) challenge on three-car dream garages, the NSX is track, the CRX Si is DD (but they could easily swap roles), and the Acty gets a turbo motor swap for burnouts.

Perfect Honda selection, I’m glad someone remembered the Acty.

Alright, I’m toying with some of your guidelines so I ask you to hear me out on this one:

Welcome to France, 1981. The company is Talbot. The cars?

The Talbot-Matra Murena with the mighty 2.2 Type 180 Simca plant.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

The little and lovable moving glass greenhouse that is the Rancho.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

The Talbot Lotus Sunbeam, 150 hp, rare, and so wonderfully square.

My second choice (and first choice for when I actually need cars that work) would be Mr. MultiplaOrgasm’s awesome ‘90s Citroen garage. Truly the last of the best great Cits.

RT > Amoore100 08/27/2016 at 10:07

Good one! Every one of these is technically not a Talbot, yet they are at the same time. It helps that all of them are pretty cool and revolutionary cars too (one of the first mid-engined commuter cars, one of the first FWD crossovers and one of the first hot-hatches respectively).

Multipla’s Citroën lineup is probably one of the best selections here too. xD

The Corona GT was effectively the predecessor to the Celica, plus it could be had with the 1.6L DOHC 9R
