What's your idea of a "Forever Car"

[nuts]

1, A well built stainless owner
2. VW GTi (yung may 15 years warranty on body)

Both are practical everyday rides. Hindi maliit, hindi malaki, hindi din kukulangin sa power and built to last.

[pissword]

i would go for either the current BMW ///M5 or porsche 911

Dagdag ko pala yung Range Rover Freelander

how about the L300 versa van. reliable engine at dami ng piyesa sa market.
and mitsubishi phils. is still selling them and making money for some 3 decades now.

old school vw beetle bsta marunong magalaga

[jimaroquai]

something that transforms itself and adapt to new models, can do self maintenance, will not wear out its tires nor scratch its paint nor need any change oil etc. Para maging isang forever car dapat ideal siya. Hindi siya pwedeng maging tunay.

[akuma]

I'd go for a Mustang...

[GlennSter]

land rover defender for me.

[smalltimer]

mustang 70s... lakas ng appeal lalo na pag nagme meeting sila sa greenhills parking lot, rinig sa buong area rev nila... yun ba ginamit sa movie "gone in 60 secs"?

[diesoline]

land rover defender for me.

good choice! but i find it a bit too utilitarian. a toyota landcruiser 80 series turbodiesel a/t dubai version is it for me.

Heck, I wouldn't know about a forever car. But I certainly fell in love with the car Robert Redford used in the movie Spy Game, a Porsche 912. I thought, "Damn, I wouldn't mind having that as my retirement car."

Or I'd be willing to settle on a 1967 Shelby GT500.

I'd have a Super Seven replica, like a Westfield. With a carburated 2 liter engine. So it'll be easy to fix, run forever, and not so expensive to drive when gas starts running out.

Otherwise, I'd like to keep my Lynx forever (though I doubt it would last that long)... there's just something about having a fast "Ford". :lol:

notice all your "forever cars" are hypothetical. Once you acquire it, I'm sure you will be singing a different tune after a short while specially when it starts to give you maintenance problems. hehehe.

I've yet to hear anyone say he has a car he's been loving for 10 years.... either he is a rare exeption or on a tight budget. peace! hehehe

no pun intended. but yes, i beg to differ. i'm approaching 10 years of ownership with my honda civic. funny thing is, yes i'm in a tight budget. i think i do not need a replacement yet. though, i have another vehicle, still this sedan is my favorite. i wonder if this happened to be the hip during my era.

For me it would have to be a convertible in the spirit of the early roadsters (Morgan / Triumph / MG). Maybe a simple one that would be easy to maintain (MT), go for a fun run with the top down (soft/hardtop when it rains), fun for "track days" (available aftermarket parts), has enough power to scare you're self (boost), can be used for errands by my wife and kids (when their old enough). Looks like a Mazda MX-5 Miata would fit the bill.

My idea of a "forever car" is the Galant GTI

dami pwede isalpak na surplus engine
has a lot of following
di nakakasawa design (that's me)

I know a guy who kept his Galant GTI and just kept changing engines (from 4G63 DOHC to 4G63T) over the years (12 yrs and running to be exact) .. yun ang forever car, well at least for me.

:exclaim: That's a pretty good idea...

[nicolodeon]

1958 Corvette, yung pula.

[pixelparadigm]

Nissan Skyline R32 and R34... ofcourse it should be the GT-R. Better if it's NISMO-tuned.

But my forever engine soundtrack would be coming from a rotary engine, with turbos.
