Many cars have came and gone, some of these cars have been bad ass such as the Supra, Buick Grand National, or BMW 8 Series. Still if you had the power to bring back 5 cars that went out of production from any car manufactuer, which 5 would you choose?

Hmm didnt they bring back the 6 series just recently? Or some crap idk saw it on car and driver. And they need to bring back the AWD Turbo Celica, the Supra but at a cheaper price lol, and uh well every single Hatch back that was awesome that they replaces with a "coupe". Including the Corolla GT-S(Lexus IS just Sucks ass here in the states) The older style Audi coupe not that new awfull driving fire trap. the Mazda AWD hatches, hell a Hatch Mustang was bad ass to and out handled alot of things. And screw a New camaro, The old ones sucked in handeling and so did the newer ones. It made them no money it was a good choice to cut them. But Pontiac musta been on crack when they made the GTO o_O. I mean hell it looks like a waterd down Grand Prix lol. Its an ok handling car though not as nice as a vette but just normallish driven like an older Z yah know? Ide love to have a Roomy RWD hatchback. That new Dodge Slingshot shit looks promising cept they need to turbo charge it and stay away with stuffing a Hemi in it lol.

5 cars that i would really love to see come back are:

1. obviously the Camaro and other f-bod's
2. Toyota Supra
3. Mazda RX7 (the rx 8 is a real disappointment in comparison)
4. Nissan 300zx (awesome power, awesome looks) the 350Z is kinda its older brother though.
5. Honda CRX (big potential)


I read mitsubishi may be going out of business so soon this list of cars gone will also include the great mitsubish Evolution sadly.

In order of what's needed:
1: Camaro/Firebird
2: Toyota Supra
3: Acura NSX
4: Maserati Biturbo
5: Mitsubishi 3000GT

I left out the RX7 only becaust there have been rumors that Mazda is actually developing a new RX7 for 2006 or so.

isn't the 350z the new 300zx? wasn't it a transformation. even mags spoke on it being the evolving 300zx just as the rx-8 is suppose to be the evolved rx-7

Yes the 350Z is the evolution of the Z model, I guess people just want the Twin Turbo option back. The RX-8 is sort of the evolution of the RX-7 model, except it's a 4 door/4 seater version. Mazda has said they planned on building a new generation RX-7, then they say no, then they say yes again, then no, so who knows, hopefully it will come back, because Mazda said it would all depend on the RX-8s sells, and yes the RX-8 is actually selling well.

Could this be it, I'm not sure if I like it.

I have to disagree about the 350z being a continuation of the 300zx. It's more of a continuation of the 280z, 260z, and 240z that fall along the principles of great handling, semi-powerful sports car at cheap price. If it were a continuation of the 300zx, it would be a 350zx, more expensive, more luxurious, more powerful and more of a supercar all around.

As for that supposedly new RX-7.. too bland, too tall.

EDIT: changing my Camaro response to the Datsun 510.

here is my list:
1. 300ZX (of course)
2. rx-7 (dont like rx-8, why four-doors, not a sports car!)
3. supra

those are the only three. i agree with prelewd about the z. it seems nissan went back to the narrow looking hatchback styling with the 350z.
4.

You misunderstood me, I didn't say evolution of 300ZX, I said the evolution of the Z model.

2. A Toyota Sports Car of any kind, preferably close to the Supra MKIV
3. A 2 door Mazda Sports Car, what the RX8 shoulda been
4. BMW M1, or some other +$100,000 BMW

My fault.. I just thought you meant 300zx because you mentioned the twin turbo.

It's cool, sorry if it seems like I have an attitude, can't get these icons and stuff to work on these forums so I guess I'll just use the old ghetto way =)
