What was the best vehicle you ever owned?

Hmmm, my BEST vehicle(s) I've ever owned would be our daily driver/commuter cars... 2008 Yaris sedan and 2012 Yaris 5-door hatch. Bought both new. Cheap, SUPER reliable, 42-45mpg average, everything works/feels like new on the 2008 with 100+k miles. Love my 2007 Tundra and 2008 RX350 also and have been ultra reliable but they can't compete with cars that only cost $13k and consistently get 42+mpg.
Most fun vehicle would be a tie. My 1969 Barracuda fastback and my prostreet 1999 Z28. I had a blast with them both.

Tough call, but my 1970 Maserati Ghibli was up there. Was clocked at 120 and when I saw the police I just kept going since I figured they would lock me up and throw the key away. 20 miles down the road I was stopped, but the cop who clocked me thought it was a Jaguar so when I produced the registration I was let go. It was a great car, but the technology in my AMG blows away the Ghibli. Here are pics of then and now.

The 2000-04 M5's are cool too! The bright blue or carbon black look the best. The 2006-2011 M5's might be fast but they just weren't great looking cars.

My first...1956 Chevy Belair 2 door Sedan. Bought from a high school teacher for $350. I put a 350 horse 327 and M-22 4 speed from a totaled '65 'vette in it and painted it. Car would run mid 13's in the quarter and smoke most stock muscle cars of the day.
