I’m going Chevelle and Vette.
That Bel Aire is one hell of a goddamned car. I’m just a sucker for the Chevelle and that Corvette is the apex of the Vette.

When the economy shit the bed in '08 you could find one of those for about $30K and I could've covered most of that by selling the Camaro. The wife flat doesn't like them. Thinks that Stingray is ugly.
She's just wrong as hell.
And that's pretty much a 6 figure car if it has 4 tires and a steering wheel these days.
Ugh...still chaps my ass.

Oof. That’s a tough one to swallow. And yes. Your wife is wrong.

But I'm just not a '57 Chevy fan and never have been. I know I'm supposed to be - I just don't like 'em.
And the interior of that thing has that chunky, overpadded look that seems straight out of an 80s Skylark.
For me the 'vette was an easy choice and then the Chevelle, even if I can't imagine voting for the Chevelle after this round. I could have one of those (almost did, in fact) - so I have a hard time saying it's a dream car when it's just a matter of desire to make it a reality.

That’s an excellent way to explain the way I feel about it.
