Re: Your most fun or cherished car?

Albee,Oddly enough, I also had a midget and an X1/9.
Very fond memories of the MG...this little guy could almsot turn in its own radius! Best handling car I've ever owned...conversely, the Fiat (Fix it again, Tony) was one of the worst...but I did like the "T" top versus a convertable...the thing looked like a flying doorstop.
I bought a used Mazda Miata a few years ago, hoping to rekindle that magic of the midget...sadly, to many years had past, and I had grown to large and to used to the creature comforts of large cars. The Miata, however, was faster than either of these other two, and was a better all round car... but I only kept it about a year.
Now, on occasion, the new Mini Coopers look good to me, and the newish T-Bird is drop dead gorgous...maybe a previously owned model some day.
Thanks for the memories.
