Can we get a timeline of the "Official Cars of Oppo?"

We’ve had a number of “official cars of Oppo” over the years, cars that a fairly sizable contingent of Oppos talked about and ultimately acquired at around the same time (usually around the time of the model’s release) . The Twins, the FiST, the Boostang, and now seemingly the Outback XT. I’m sure I’m missing a few, and I don’t think I could properly nail down the timeline of each car’s reign. Any Oppo historians out there who think they can map it out?

I think automatic Mk7 GTI was in there as well for a while

I’m very interested to know what the first one was.

Throw GTI into the recent mix.

We had a strong push for the LS400 early on. I’m not so sure.

I think it would be awesome if we could track oppo purchases somehow... Like a universal tag or maybe a survey.

Man, the GTI train did NOT last long..... IM seems to be the main flag waver now. RIP Jordan’s GTI, long live the Z06.

I think we could make a case for the C5 vette being a very Oppo car though. We’ve got a few people on here with one.

I would pay money* to see a list all the cars since 1960 that would have been the official car of Oppo.

*I wouldn’t pay anything but it would be cool.

Miata was sometimes the answer

I wouldn’ t be opposed to the general genre of “Vans” being the official car of Oppo.

I still love my Mk7 GTI, regardless of the water pump having a tiny leak at 50k miles .

C5 Corvette may have been the Oppo car in 2019?

Let us not forget the Bus Pass GT.

yeah - quite a few Rabbits/Golfs in general, might be the winner for pure numbers

There’s clearly a need to recruit more bros with bro trucks.
