Love the 124. I wish my dad had let me buy one instead of the 914. I was so abused! hehe
Another car I would like is a TR8 with the small discplacement alu V8. That would take some work to sort properly. I’ve always dug the BMW Z3 and Z4 too. Probably way to expensive to repair, but very cool sportscars. Finally, the Boxster. I drove one before buying the Miata. 2X the price at around $10k, but parts are so expensive and repair nearly impossible in one’s own garage.
More realistic, the RX8 was leading my list. The new Camaro might be interesting though. 200 lbs lighter now, great engine line up. I have to do some more research though.
