>>16326178
You're welcome anon, thank you for making the original thread. I made this one because with the 80s being my favorite decade by far, making a choice was too much of a compromise.
Also nice picks. Love the M1, the X1/9 and the C3. Is the '85 Ford a SHO mustang?
I have to say that even though I made this thread about my favorite decade, even this was really hard to do for me and I'm not completely happy about all the cars I had to leave out
>Mercedes-Benz R107
>Volvo 760
>Saab 9000
>BMW E30
>Vector W8
>C4 Corvette
>VW Corrado
>Delorean DMC-12
>Mercedes-Benz W124
>Porsche 924
>Porsche 944
>Ferrari 308
>Ferrari 288 GTO
>De Tomaso Pantera
>Ford Bronco
>Jeep Grand Wagoneer
>Jeep Cherokee
>Jeep Wrangler
>G-Wagen

And to get quirky:
>HMMWV
>Bigfoot 3


If I could have every car I wanted most would be from the 80s, lol

Same. The music, the movies, the art, the hopes in the people looking forward to the future. It's just beautiful.
About cars, even shitboxes were pretty. I think it has to do with the emissions and safety regulations that took away a lot of the designers' freedom. Back in the day they could apply the latest developments and create whatever shapes they wanted to without a lot of regulations getting in the way, but today it's borderline impossible. Regulations did away with the gorgeous popup headlights, they did away with aerodynamic designs, they did away with sleek cars. Even econoboxes were often attractive back then. On the bright side, at least I didn't live in the age of coke to become a junkie, kek.

main reason I like the 911 is that is still has the same basic shape as it did in 1964 (60s and 70s are my favorite years for cars)

>The car shapes are fine but I can't get over the orange headlights.

depending on what country they were heading to they could be white or orange

those arent the headlights tho

It's just the last year with the original design. I'm not saying that the facelift looks bad but I'm not a fan of modernized designs. It's a 70's car in the basis and it should look that way.
I'm not feeling the same way about 964 tho. I like how it looks.

>>16338892
There's two kinds of F40 buyers: speculators (they were sadly the majority) and people who actually bought them to drive them. The good thing about having all those speculators is that you can basically buy a brand new F40 today if you have the money.

>>16338839
I kinda agree but on the other hand I can see why some people would pick the 959 instead.

i live in florida, so roads are fairly good quality but extremely fucking boring, so i don't really have an issue there.

i do understand where you're coming from on the parking, but i don't think a bunch of geezers are really going to be interested in it. i would definitely be wary of anybody that comes close to it as the general public is fucking retarded when it comes to supercars.

you've got valid concerns, but they don't really apply to me (if i was rich, duh).

>>16339031
Faggot, it's the last driver's Ferrari without electronic nannies to keep you on the road. It was also the fastest production car of its time. It's sound is also superb. And it's essentially a street legal race car, I mean look at that interior with its string operated doors, no stereo, no carpets, visible glue. Even the paint was applied in controlled quantities to save weight. And about "ugly", let's just agree to disagree. Based Pininfarina.

Now I get what you were saying. I'm not a Porsche expert, sorry. All I know is I'd love to have a 930 because it's famous for being hard to control, to the point that it was nicknamed "the widowmaker" because people would often get boost in the middle of a curve and end up leaving the road.
I'm attracted to 924s and 944s for aesthetic reasons.

>>16339184
>The entire reason the F40 was made was to outdo the 959.
This fact doesn't seem flattering to Ferrari. You can't really compare these cars. One of tham had comfy interior, good isolation and stuff like A/C, power seats and windows also were available. The other one is baically a road legal track car. It doesn't seem like the a bit older 959 that wasn't built 100% from ground up should be able to keep up with the red beast. ..but it did.

>>16339786
Is that the only reason why you like the car? They aren't so hard to drive. You just have to drive them differently. And you obviously first have to learn to drive it before you test its limits. A thing like modern sticky tires also would help this ''widowmaker'' issue.
I included both 930 and 964, also the 944 and 928 in my 80's picks >>16328914
Guess I'm kinda into Porsches.

>>16340522
>Is that the only reason why you like the car?
Well, I also like the idea of having an aircooled boxer engine and a RR layout, plus I love the look of the slantnose. I like Porsches but mostly the odd ones, and I'm not very attracted to watercooled 911s (although of course I would gladly keep one if I got it for free lol). I love the Carrera GT and its V10 too. And thanks to an anon ITT I found out about the CTR 3 which is awesome looking too, looks like a baby CGT.
>>16340522
According to Ferrari themselves it wasn't created to beat the 959, but that could be just marketing to pretend they don't care about Porsches.

>>16340522
>They aren't so hard to drive. You just have to drive them differently. And you obviously first have to learn to drive it before you test its limits.
Oh, of course, but that's what makes it interesting. It's not that I want to slide out in a corner, it's that I think it's attractive to have a car which can punish me with death for being stupid or a bad driver. It's pretty Darwinian and I find that absolutely sexy.
>A thing like modern sticky tires also would help this ''widowmaker'' issue.
That kinda beats the point tho...

Not really, they can do so if you're a terrible driver, bad is often not enough.

T-thanks senpai. I'm not sure that makes me patrician though...
>>16350180
Maybe you could think of a 5x2 layout with a highlight on top that can be of any year, that would make more sense imo.

>>16352617
WANT

HNNGGGG

Looking through the choices in this thread leads me to believe 1980-82 was basically just the 70s but with less brown.

>>16354514
Well, you're not too wrong. Just like the early 90s were pretty much an extension of the 80s and the breaking point came around 1995.

Mmm... I can't see any Delta Integrale

>>16355453
I thought about it but those last spots were taken by my obligatory choices.

why can't I have a Yellowbird, GNX and F40 in the 1987 box?

>>16355503
Heh, try the decades garage thread if you find this one hard... I had to choose between F40 and Testarossa, can you believe that?

>>16356147
Decades was a lot easier because you don't have to think about specific years.

>>16356210
Well, the F40 wasn't only produced in 1987 :P

What's the 1986? Obviously a Regal relative but I don't know which.

>>16358139
Monte Carlo SS

Worst taste in this thread by far.

Literally the only car I would need from the 80's

>>16358300
Why not get other 80s cars as well? At least a regular 911 and a Turbo, or maybe a Targa or a convertible.

What did you mean with the ''Turbo''?

>>16359574
930

>>16358300
No 70's? Afterall it was the quickest car in late 70's.

>>16359743
He literally posted a 930. It even says ''Turbo'' on the plate.

>>16359767
Oh, I meant that he could have both in the list, not to add a 930

>>16359794
It's ok to want only one car. That's actually pretty ideal.

>>16359811
How so? If the car genius showed up to you and offered to grant you 10 80s cars would you pick only one? Why miss out on variety?

>>16360245
>Choose a car from each year of the 1980s you'd be willing to own
It doesn't say anything about a genie. Unfortunately I'd have huge garage full of cars if it would be possible. They wouldn't be as special for me like the guy who has only one tho.

>>16360426
Well, it's pretty much the implied situation, that you can have a car from each year no matter what car is it and how expensive it is.

why not do what i did?
86 Ruf BTR
87 GNX
88 F40

Yeah the BTR isn't as insane as the Yellowbird but its still an old air cooled 180mph porsche and would be a handful
get the best GN, the GNX
get a 2nd year F40 and still get a low number car since there weren't that many made per year
