1992 BMW 325i E36 Sedan - slammed with wheels
1993 BMW 325i E36 Coupe - entirely redone suspension, boltons, single handedly the best handling/driver feel car Ive ever owned.
1997 VW GTI VR6 - cammed higher compression tuned full exhaust coilovers etc. Fun, amazing sound
Now my 98 c5 FBO. Fastest and fun, but doesnt touch an e36 in regards to handling.

74, 79, 92, 94, 02 firebird
a bunch of other vehicles with decent power levels, V8, and other assorted goodies, but I have always wanted a corvette since just a couple months after buying my first F body (1978 camaro) almost always had an F body in my life, and finally got my corvette

cadillac CTSV. newer ones have the blown LT4 and I am pretty sure still a manual. if not I know you can back step to the LSA blower ones and they still had manual trans

Nope. My old man has a 2016 V, and it was only offered with the A/T. Great car, but I'd miss the 6-spd.
