I like both but you can't do 160 mph on a coin. My 2015 won't be a classic for many years but she's on the way. Only have 12,500 miles on it. The last 5 miles I collected a bunch of @#$% lovebugs on the bumper, what a way to go.
I knew I had more photos of an AMX. The owner told me that if you really cracked up the A/C, you had "snow" coming out of the vents!
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
Hiere is one of my favorite classic cars, the 1959 Cadillac when the tail fins reached their zenth.

Fun thread. Love that Jaguar (XKE?) in the first photo. I used to walk by a Jag dealer who had a plethora of those on his lot back when I was a college student. Kept me motivated to keep studying.
While this one isn't mine, I do own one of same color which is in need of restoration.
And this is me and one of my rides back in my college days:

Anyone recognize this classic? It was being offered as a period car for the filming of a Nicolas Cage film. In the photo I took you can see the actor as well.
I sold a few of my coins and bought this 1962 Buick LeSabre. My son has no interest in coins but loves cars. Better for me to sell them than leave them for him and my wife to deal with. We take it to local car shows.
Watch the mirror count the lines The battle scars of all the good times
I have young kids so classic cars without modern safety features not really practical right now. I recently traded in my Dodge Challenger for a family vehicle. Sad, but I can always get another muscle car in the future.
My wife is happy I collect coins and not cars as they certainly take up less space. She said I can have one classic car eventually, just one. I need to choose wisely.

I think I see an Elvis sighting in that Caddy's back seat!
Marilyn Monroe is sitting next to him. You can barely see her red scarf. She is wearing her “Seven Year Itch” dress without the benefit of the subway vent.

Love those classic lines!
Enthusiastic collector of British pre-decimal and Canadian decimal circulation coins.

Nice one. I'm a fan of 1962-1972 Buicks.

I like both, but trains are my thing. Here's New Hope RR # 40 and 2-Lincoln Cents that it squashed.
I did this Dec. 27, 2017.

I love both, but have an 03 Acura, bought new and still drives the same as the day I took it off the lot. It helps towards my coin budget.
Great pics................that '59 El Camino SS pumps my blood!!!!

Still shopping for a classic Camaro or Corvette, maybe someday..
For now, the coins will have to do.

Fifty years later I'm thinking about my 12th.
Cars for me. More memories associated with them. 64 or 65 Mustang or the Cougar. Found out it's harder to "drive" a coin.
Here are some coins that move!

OK, one more I once drove:

That was Joe letting off steam.

Coins.
Good stuff!
Coins no doubt .
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
Wow, that E-type Jaguar, my favorite. I don't have the mechanical skills to own one however.
I prefer coins for storage reasons. In the event of a fire, grabbing a brief case or duffel bag full of coins is easy.
Throw that duffel bag in your classic sports car and go !
Nice one. I'm a fan of 1962-1972 Buicks.

Coins, but those are some pretty cool cars! Always dig when the local car shows gather in Denver area in the summer. Love seeing the classics!
Gonna get me a $50 Octagonal someday. Some. Day.
My first Porsche. '66 912. I drove it in college in Rhode Island, 1970 - 73. Winters be damned.
A few years later I took it off the road when the passenger seat fell through the floorboard. Porsche didn't galvanize until the mid 70's.
I sold it several years later. Dumb, but broke.
