G.O.A.T.

Nope, Not a Mohammed Ali or LL Cool J reference (Though, with me, the latter is MUCH more likely). Today, I wanna talk about cars. Yep, that's right, four wheeled conveyances that, along with my friends, aircraft, books, music, and photography, are among my passions in life. I've gotten a little sick of a lot of car enthusiast sites publishing their "50 Best Car" lists and leaving off a few of my favorites. These are all street-legal cars, for the record. This is based on NOTHING but personal preference for that car, but, here goes. Also, organized to be presented in chronological order, not order of preference ;).

  3. Well, I have as much interest in cars as I do in planes.
