This one is easy. You have $120,000 freedom dollars to buy three classic cars for your garage, (We’re defining classics as older than 25 years by the way.)
One must be American, another Japanese, and the last one European. That’s it!

What’s the “European” one? GIS tells me it’s a Honda Accord.
And the “American” one
>_>
You can’t fool anyone with that, at this point!

It IS a Honda Accord-ish. Or really it’s a Rover Sterling, which is a Acura Legend.

Well... I guess I never specified manufactured or branded. But we’ll go with branded since you have silliness like the EP3 made in Europe.

W123 Mercedes diesel
C1985 Ford Mustang SVO
Any old Toyota found on CL
Plus a Holden which there’s bound to be one somewhere

I’ll have a ‘63.5 Galaxie (alternate: ‘68 Mustang fastback), a ‘91 NSX, and a Euro-market 911SC. Should leave a little money left over. Front, mid, and rear engines under one roof.

Did Sterling sell a coupe?
I thought they were sedans and 5-door hatchbacks only

R32 for Japanese, 67 chevy impala for American, and technically it’s a classic now so e36 m3 for European. It’s an interesting hypothetical garage I own

IF THERE’S A BLURRY PHOTO ON THE INTERNET IT IS 100% FACT

European one is a British car called the Rover 800, it’s a first gen Honda Legend underneath.
American one is a first gen Geo Prism, it’s a Toyota Corolla Sprinter underneath.
So, it’s really just a bunch of Japanese cars in disguise.

S2000 CR, 996 TT, Focus RS. That’ll probably have me right at the limit. They’ll all be 25 at some point.

Tonight, tonight the strip’s just right
I want to blow ‘em all out of their seats
Calling out around the world, we’re going racin’ in the street
2.) Toyota Land Cruiser, FJ40 - $20,000
https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/ctd/6059000897.html
I need a desert rig than can go off-road, so LC it is! Should do better than my Camry. I will swap in legit Recaros, though.
Picture is of a different Land Cruiser because I hate that dealer’s photos borders.
3.) 1970 Porsche 911 - $70k

The “splurge”. It’s a pricey thing, but my god, is it worth every penny!

Edit: I substituted a triumph TR6 for an escort cosworth. They only sold it in Europe so it counts.

I have a feeling you have Forza Horizon 3.
![]() 04/16/2017 at 09:40 |

Nope, only Forza I have is the original Forza Motorsport for the original xBox.
I had an AMC Ramber for a few years and fell in love with AMC’s, the Trans-Am cars of the late-60s/early-70s are intriguing so I’d like a Trans-Am Javelin.
After following the build of Matt Brown’s Honda S600/S1000 I kinda want one as a long-term project car, they seem neat.
My brother has a ‘76 Mini Cooper RHD, it’s awesome to drive and (like the Honda) I kinda want one ‘cause they’re neat.

Buick Grand National, fun car.
Land Rover Range Rover LSE w air suspension, comfy dd.

I’d rather have a German or Italian car instead of the American one though.
