Not sure if this was posted, sorry for the repeat if it was

That car was about $15,500 new in 1985. I always liked the generation GTI before this one.

Wow, what an investment!  Buy a car, keep it for 33 years, barely enjoy it, and get 0% return.

My aunt had a Dodge Diplomat. It was likely the first of those Mopars that I'd seen.



When I started seeing Chryslers, the headlights always struck me as being upside down.  ;D

I always thought the Firebird was better looking than the Camaro.  This is a great example.

Some of the Gen 2 Trans Ams were amazing...

I get that.  The ‘67 and ‘68 Cougar were sexier than the corresponding Mustangs...

Always loved these.  GM tried to do it better and well...  Toyota tried to do it better and did they ever succeed!

As a young lad of 5 years old, I fell in love with the Cougar's sequential turn signal.
