When was your car the most fun?

In all seriousness I think my most fun moments were definitely in my Merkur. With that thing you never knew if it would catch fire, blow the motor, or blow the motor then catch fire. I got pulled in this car for so many different reasons that it was very well known to Hanover's Sheriff Dept. Along with taking this car to speeds that I dare not talk about off road on dirt roads and winding country gravel laced streets I had a blast start to finish. Car started mostly stock, went through a total of 3 short blocks, 7 different heads, and something obnoxious like 14 head gaskets. Changed turbos weekly and only dyno'd it once @ 317rwhp NON-intercooled @ 22psi. Car was a rocket, but it broke constantly. Plus the headlights and taillights never worked correctly which left me doing triple digits on I-95 trying to get home before dark a few too many times.
edit: Incase you were wondering, this car caught on fire about 4 different times. Most were from running an open downpipe and igniting raw fuel that was dumped onto the underside of my car. One quick off throttle snap and presto...light show. Others were your typical leaky oil feed line on the top of a 6 million degree turbine. Poof.
I sold it a few years back and supposidly it gernaded the T3 on it's way home to Ohio. Whoops.
Damn I miss that car right about now.
