I'm a sucker for malaise era land yachts, so I say the 1976 Cadillac Eldorado.

All show, no go. Just like me ๐Ÿค—

So good. My first car was a 1977 Mercury Grand Marquis. That video is of a '77 Marquis Brougham, but I don't recognize any notable differences between that and the 4-door Grand.

Besides all the bullshit problems it gave me, how unreliable it was, how poorly it drove on snow and ice, and how much fuel it consumed, it was a great car ๐Ÿ˜‹ I honest to god miss it every day.

Like RCR and Technology Connections, anything B R O W N

Okay but for real, I have a soft spot for the Chevrolet Celebrity, as that's what my mom drove when I was a wee lad. There's a simple understated beauty to cars like this that were made to be used and thrown away.
