1990 Pontiac Grand Am
1999 Mercury Cougar
2005 Pontiac G6 GTP Coupe
2008 Pontiac G8 GT
2005 Chevrolet Corvette

The one that has gotten the most attention is probably the G8, only because I rebadged it with Holden badges....people had no idea what it was! lol

The other attention getter was the Cougar, because I totally modded it out.

67 Corvette 'Vert 427 435 hp
63 Jag E Type Roadster
64 GTO Tri - power 389
70 Plymouth GTX 440-6 pack
10 Ferrari 599 GTB
05 C6 Coupe
69 Camaro Z-28
98 Ferrari 550

Currently own the C6 & the GTO. The brothers 2010 Ferrari turns some heads especially from the sound but most people don't know what it is..."is that a new Mustang?" Over all the Jag & GTO gets most thumbs up..probably an age thing. You can hear the Goat comming...not that the C6's Corsa exhaust is too shabby! Cars - gotta love'm!

My pedal car when I was 6 years old, cruising the sidewalks looking for hot babes...:rofl:

JDMvette7 04-25-2013 02:25 PM

I'll just list the fun cars I've owned...

94 Mitsubishi 3000GT SL
93 Dodge Stealth Twin Turbo
01 Chevy Corvette w/ Z51
03 Honda S2000
04 Pontiac GTO
08 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X
07 Infiniti G35 S
05 Chevy Corvette w/ Z51

It's hard to say which car got the most attention....

Over all it was probably the Stealth since it was more rare and really fast lol. The S2000 generated a lot of attention because it was rare as well. Lots of people asked what it was and would comment on it.

Lol but it had good audio and turned heads..wow I've come a long way and it was hard to admit all this to you guys but I had to!:hide:

Ah, the early days of import enthusiasts. I must say that a nice import always turned heads. Mine was a 96 Integra SE. I didn't go with any wild body kit or spoiler. Just the factory look with a two-tone color-flop paint job. It was forrest green, but would turn midnight blue at certain angles. Had a B20B motor swap, AEM CAI, Tenzo R exhaust, DC sport headers, skunk II intake manifold, MSD ignition, and Ground control coil-overs. Did a big-brake kit as well and some powder-coated white rims. Before I decided to sell her, I was saving up for a tranny swap and turbo kit next :)

Having worked at Hurst Performance in the early days I had the opportunity to drive a lot of head turners-Original Shelby Cobra 427, Original Ford GT40, several of George Barris's early creations including the Surf Woody, a AH 3000 with a small block chevy engine, all the Hurst Olds model years and the Indy car Smokey Yunick built for George

During my time as a valet at a 4 Diamond Beach Resort, I drove far too many cars to remember or list. I drove a lot of nice cars that I didn't even know what they were, I was only 18-20 at the time, I knew the make just not the model. The best way I can put it is, when Porsche's become mundane and you're disappointed when a guy pulls up in a M3/5 or AMG MB, you know you've gotten spoiled.

As far as cars I've owned, my first car was a 1982 tan Toyota diesel pick up, the damn thing was a few months older than I was when I started driving. The floor panels were completely rusted out, the only thing holding me in that truck was the interior carpet. I hated that truck and there were times when I wouldn't drive it and make a friend come pick me up, but it sure does make me appreciate the '13 GS coupe I've got now a lot more.

2. '86 Mustang SVO
3. '84 Jeep CJ7
4. '96 Chevy Blazer (2 door)
5. '03 Chevy S10 (still own and drive)
6. '13 GS Corvette coupe

Out of my 6 Corvettes, the '58 got the most attention. 58, 68, 69, 90, 98 and current 09 but I still want a '66....

50 4Ever 04-25-2013 05:40 PM

The 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado turned more heads, it was way ahead of its time...

Probably the car that turned the most heads was my 49 Anglia street rod. Ex 70s gasser, for the street it had a 502 BB, and only 2200#. Always had a crowd around it.http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/...ps723ebbd9.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3ec26c14.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/...psb10c7024.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/...pscca3d8fb.jpg
