Mustang's and Camero's...or their owners don't like it. Handles pretty good but has a rough ride. Exhaust sounds good with single 2-1/2" glass pack and manderal bent exhaust. Interior is sparce with vinal seats and rubber floormatts but what more could you want. Gets lots of looks...
Pros:
Street Legal Go-Kart
Cons:
Rough Ride

You can't kill 'em. As long as the floors don't rust out they will last forever. They are also so ugly they are cool!
Pros:
See review
Cons:
Rusts easily if not cared for properly.

It's a classic... a little rough around the edges but what can you say? It's over 30 years old! Still a very solid little car... still needs some work it be in tip-top condition though. Very fun to drive... just hot in the summer without any air conditioning! ;-) Long throws in the transmission and a little vague but goes into gear easily... just takes a little getting used to if you have never driven an old car with a manual transmission before.
Pros:
Cute, fun to drive, a classic
Cons:
No a/c

We built this Custom Bugatti for Classic Motor Carriages in Miami, Fl. They needed a prototype so we built this and did a builders manual and make a slide show to go with it to help them in sales since no one at the factory ever built one. We uses 19' Ford Model "A" wheels and tires with large headlights to make it look like a real classic. It was a one of a kind car and last I hear someone in Ohio bought it.
Pros:
VW drivetrain was fun to drive
Cons:
Couldn't keep it

I love Beetles, and the one I had was a classic. It was Orange and was the first model with the larger Tail Lights. It was indestructable and I can assure you that I made every effort to destroy it. It was a great car.
Pros:
Air cooled rear engine
Cons:
2 Doors

The bug that we own is a beut. One of only a couple thousand made, this one was born in 1974, and has a rounded front windshield, a sunroof, and a gold paintjob (which I guess was special for the time). I'll get more info up soon, but yeah.
Pros:
Good looking, great for any terrain (not offroading, but it can go on ice cause it's a RWD and the engine is in the back), lasts FOREVER (no joke)
Cons:
totally un-death proof
