Let us see your favorite car from ‘65 and why you like it. I would have to say my favorite car form 1965 would have to be the Aston Martin DB5. Not only because Bond (ok, yes that is a huge reason), but also because it is down right gorgeous. And I know they had “quirks” and were slow, but who cares. That is all part of the mystique and character of the car. Honestly though, if I had the cash and found one with no drive train, I would love to drop in a proper AM V12 somehow mated to the C7 7 speed transaxle and hoon it everyday.

Alright. I’m cheating a little on this one. It wasn’t made in 1965, but it was first shown at the Tokyo auto show in 1965. If that’s not allowed by your rules, then my vote is the Sports 800 because that was manufactured in 1965.

I like them both. They’re kinda cute while still managing to look rather dignified as well in my opinion.

If any one said no to a 2000GT, then they should be burned at the stake.

It’s just so pretty. It’s not even possible to hate it.

Unless you’re a god damn Commie... lol. That is one of those cars that even with enough money, I’d still be timid to buy and drive.

I’m going to tentatively say the Honda S600....this is a tricky year to choose

I like it! Yes there are a lot of cars available in 1965 that are very gear head oriented.

Given how rare they are, yes.

I’m a little late, but I’m doing this anyway,

2000GT isn’t out yet and the DS,Cobra and E-Type are great but cliché.

So, that leaves me with the Iso Grifo. It even pulls off teal well.
