What was the best vehicle you ever owned?
 
It doesn't have to be the fastest, flashiest, etc. What was your favorite overall?

I wish I had this one back. Perfect balance. Low key, super fast for it's day, rare, and built like a brick Sh!& house.

1993 500E

Glory days thread! lol!

Had many fine cars over the years but the one I had the most fun in was my High School car, '71 Pinto with a Small block nitrous injected, Hi Po 289. trans was a close ratio Top Loader and 9" rear from an early Bronco. 4:57's on a Detroit Locker. Centerline wheels L-60 15's on the rear -Was my only car for several years. Man, she'd pull chicks and burn rubbah! lol!

Those w140 cars are nice rigs. I had a 96 S600 coupe. I loved the motor, but it just didn't have the magic feel the 500E had. Hard to beat a big Benz for a daily driver.
