I grew up around a family of die-hard ford fans, and I must admit was a part of that until later in my teenage years. I actually built a Ford Mustang foxbody that had been neglected when I got it, and I repaired many things and even installed a carb'd 302 motor and transmission into it before I was legal to drive! I ended up selling this later on down the road, and ended up buying a 1994 Camaro Z28 from a boss I had. It had 83,000 original miles and I was in love with this car; once it was cleaned up it looked amazing.
I would have to say that this 1994 Camaro is now my favorite car, it's still in my driveway and I drive it on weekends. It's now sporting a 383 Stroker with a mild cam, built 4L60e transmission and a Strange rear-end with 3.73 gearing. It's quite a blast to drive!
What's your favorite car, and the story behind it!

Right now my favorite car is the newish Ford Mustangs those Coyote 5.0L motors sound wicked with exhaust.
My first car was my favorite and I miss it to this day - 1978 Pontiac Trans-Am 400 with 400turbo tranny was awesome. I keep looking at them now and wondering why someone would pay all that money lol I got mine for $1500 when I was 17 (50 now). If I could find one for a decent price I would get it but I won't pay what they want now 🙁

Hell yeah, all those classic muscle cars are expensive now. That would've been a sweet ride for a 17 year old! I had a 1989 Ford Mustang Hatchback at 18, with a backyard built 302. Ended up with some eBay turbo kit that blew the motor in short order 😉 Fun times though.

I had the privilege of owning a 1973 Datsun 240Z. It had straight 6 and a hood that went on for eternity. The best car I can remember!! Great gas milage and comfortable.
@jim1973 Awesome ride, definitely a fun car to drive I am sure!
