Well, let’s see. I had somewhat different taste in cars even as a kid.
I really wanted a “Brady bunch” station wagon - think late 60s/early 70s full size wagon with wood grain. I still want one.
A Cadillac Eldorado. I couldn’t have told you at the time that it was a ‘59 that I wanted, but it was a ‘59 I wanted lol. Although these days I am more stuck on a different Cadillac I’d like to have.
The only sports car I was into at all was the Dodge Viper.
And I had a die cast model of a neat but really off-kilter proto-CUV/multipurpose vehicle: the Matra Rancho. Only the French would have designed something like this, and I loved how funky that was as a kid.
Well being born in 1980 that would either be the Knight Industries Two Thousand, the A-Team van, or the Back to the Future DeLoren. Probably not the response you were looking for, so I'll play the game differently and say a BMW 2002 Turbo.
As a young teen in the late 50s I was enamored by the Ford cars that proliferated the Warner Brothers detective TV Shows like 77 Sunset Strip. During my life as a car nut, I have owned several of them. In the 90s I was inspired by the Viper TV show but it took me more than 25 years to be able to afford one (I still have it).
However, one car that I have never owned is the one I'd pick for this thread's question. Free car, whatever I wanted, it has to be a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona.
Citroen Traction Avant. Before the ones that looked like vacuum cleaners. Counterspies stepping out of the suicide doors wearing long trenchcoats.
