random cars you always wanted

Okay so I am really A.D.D. when it comes to cars. I bounce all over the place wanting this car, then that one, then a few more, then back to one of the early ones. I rarely act on these desires, but usually I at least find out a crap-ton about the car so that I feel informed enough about them if i ever find a nice one.
Suffice to say, while i don't yet own a Legacy Turbo/SS, that's one I hope to take a proactive approach in finding and buying someday.
But what about those other cars?? For the record, all of these would have to be with a manual transmission. That makes finding some of them all the more difficult.
Ford Escort GT
Saab 900SE turbo
Subaru XT6
BMW 325i coupe E30 (bought it)
S13 240sx Coupe
Volvo S70 T-5
Volvo 740 Turbo
Nissan 200sx SE V6
Toyota MR2 Supercharged
Audi Coupe Quattro
Acura Legend Coupe (bought it)
Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS
BMW 635csi
Mazdaspeed Protege
Infiniti G20 (bought it)
So... what about you guys? The weirder they are, they better. I am most ashamed of the Escort GT fetish

Yeah but the Cosworth is not realistic. They didn't import them here. The random cars I refer to are the ones I actually see on the road every once in a while.
If i am going to import a car, it would be an S15 Silvia. but I try not too mess with the pipe dreams too much, the teasing would drive me nuts

I'd like a BMW 2002 at some point. That's the only one I can't really explain. I just like them.
