Facelift 166s. Absolutely divine and impossibly elegant. Particularly with a 3.2 Arese V6 up front. Oh yes.

Not to everyone's taste, but I love its rear view. Like a modern Triumph GT6, and I can't think of another car this side of an Aeromax that achieves a similar effect with its tail.
This has been my 'Next Car' for about 18 months now. I just need to find a good job to make it come true.

I adore them.

Not actually sure what that is, hehe, always had a thing for Land Rovers/Range Rovers, had a nose around a local PHers 'new' 4.0 HSE and a quick ride in it. Lovely things! What I wouldn't do for an Alveston Red/Oxford/Oslo Blue HSE/Bordeaux/Westminster on Hurricanes or Mondials... cloud9

Would you not want the 'M'?

Saw a yellow Camaro yesterday afternoon on the A14 along with a Challenger, definitely looked incredible zooming past all of the normal cars.

In a fantasy world, yes. But that costs more than I'll have to buy and run it. If I watch my pennies, the "non-M" is achievable.

EDIT: That and the lowered suspension of the M means it'd be more likely scrape on my driveway... Sadly I have to consider such things.
