That could be a whole other thread. Things you regret selling when you joined the military. Yup this is what I should have kept. Would be worth a fortune now.

Would be nice if I could figure out what all these buttons do in this technology (don’t touch the “Post” button, till you are done!
Okay, besides my Porsche wishes I will show you why I have had those dreams. Just out of the Army, the VA sent me to Nursing school (I hated it, but PA school

My mom had a Scirocco back in the 80's too; it was a great car! A neighbor once quipped that she'd hit 60 by the time she got to the end of the driveway (to be fair, it was kind of long, and a steep downhill grade). She also got pulled over by the cops so much that they had her info memorized and had the ticket written out before we got there; they just had to write in her actual speed (they even knew us kids' birthdays). Her lawyer claimed that she put his kid through college all on her own.

I am a former CTS-V owner and still in-tune with that community. I'd really like a CT5-V Blackwing with a 6 speed manual.

I would like to buy another 2nd gen CTS-V or maybe a 3rd gen if the prices come down enough in the future.
I remember seeing the CTS-V for the first time in the St Pete grand prix GT class and I was amazed. There were two teams leading the race: one had Porsche GT3s and the other had CTS-Vs. Ultimately the Porsche team had the better drivers that day, but damn those Cadillacs were amazing. It was a pretty close race.

Went home, hit Google, and became a huge fan of the modern American luxury muscle car.

I loved mine, it was an absolute blast to drive and still had that refined Cadillac ride without driving like a boat. I don't regret switching to the Ranger, but another CTS-V will be in the future for me.

I have a couple, but my favorite 3 are either a Ferrari 308 GTS or 328 GTS in Blue. Both are obtainable for around $75k-$150k, but I doubt I'll ever have either.

My plan is, in a couple of years, to have a 1959 Silver Porsche 356 Outlaw sitting in our garage! Last pic!

Just a little FYI, I almost bid on this mint Euro 1984 Ferrari 308 GTSi Quattrovalvole, a few weeks ago, on Bring A Trailer!
Screenshot 2022-07-22 at 15-58-10 Euro 1984 Ferrari 308 GTSi Quattrovalvole.png


Info about the Quattrovalvole for those unaware:

308 GTB/GTS Quattrovalvole The main change from the 308 GTBi/GTSi it succeeded were the four valves per cylinder—hence its name, Quattrovalvole, literally "four valves" in Italian—which pushed output back up to 240 hp (179 kW) restoring some of the performance lost to the emission control equipment.

It was around $60k for a few days, but sold for $145k!!!! Here's the link: Euro 1984 Ferrari 308 GTSi Quattrovalvole

Well, I know you're joking and all, but technically, the GTSi Quattrovalvole isn't the correct trim level, that was on Magnum ?
