At one point Papa had a Volvo 960. I liked that car plenty. Boxy Volvo goodness with those windows, and, when Dad pegged the gas, the engine sounded like it was auditioning to star in an M6. Very nice. (That one was silver with black interior.)

Straight six, straight sexy, man!

Alfa Romeo 164 L with the 5 speed manual and only 67,500 miles.

Mercedes-Benz W116
The first S-Class and the first truly "modern" car.
It it has electric seats, electric mirrors, multi-channel ABS, seat belts, self-leveling suspension, shoulder belts, airbags, head-restraints, bolstered seats, and the placement of the headlights and taillights of pretty much every car made since…

Mustang.

You found an AMG Hammer for fifty grand and you're not trumpeting it from the roof-tops?!?!?
