      Wow. Only 3 is REALLY hard. If someone handed me the check book and said go buy any 3 street cars:

      1. 67 Tahoe Turquoise Nickey Camaro RS/SS (or I would buy back my old 67 RS/SS 396 4 spd - Tahoe Turquoise of course)
      2. 96 Dodge Viper GTS Coupe - Gotta be blue w/white stripes
      3. Can't choose between a mid 80's Lambourghini Countach or a 1971 Cuda w/pistol grip 4 speed - don't even care what motor it has.

      Others I love that were close runners up:

      96 Impala SS - Green
      93 Chevy 454 SS
      GMC Typhoon
      67 Vette
      BMW 850 csi
      93 Mustang Cobra

      These are ones that I would want to own. There are COUNTLESS more cars that I just love and appreciate - Chevelles, GTOs, Cutlasses, Corvettes, K5 blazers, mostly American muscle and some German sports cars and sports sedans (the new 450ish hp Mercedes is just sick!!!!)

      1969 was the last year for the 427 (COPO). The 454 (LS5 & LS6) came in 1970.

      No 427 in Chevelles any year except the rare 69 COPO 427 Chevelles. COPOs are not actual SS cars so there is no such thing as a 427 SS Chevelle or Camaro.

      My list:

      1. 1970 SS454 Chevelle LS-6 or 1970 GS455 Stage 1 w/4spd
      2. 1970 440 Road Runner
      3. 1968 Mustang GT 428 CJ

      Great thread! And tough to decide because it depends on how you want to look at it. Modern supercars like Ferraris & Lambos, or classic musclecars? Stock or modified? Who knows... up to each of our subjective whims I guess. Me, I'll just pick the production 3 cars I like best as they came from the factory because these 3 would also be the same three I'd like best if they were pro-toured too.

      1) 1977 Trans Am
      2) 1973 Trans Am
      3) 1974 Trans Am

      Okay, obviously I'm a T/A nut, so if restrict myself to just one T/A in the list it would fall out more like this!

      1) 1977 Trans Am
      2) 1996 Viper GTS
      3) 1964 GTO

      Honorable mention goes to 70 GTO Judge and 70 Cuda/Challenger (and all the rest of the gen2 T/As from 70-81)
      1994 Corvette
