OP of the original thread here. Thank you for making this.
I'll contribute
You're welcome user, thank you for making the original thread. I made this one because with the 80s being my favorite decade by far, making a choice was too much of a compromise.
Also nice picks. Love the M1, the X1/9 and the C3. Is the '85 Ford a SHO mustang?
I have to say that even though I made this thread about my favorite decade, even this was really hard to do for me and I'm not completely happy about all the cars I had to leave out

If I could have every car I wanted most would be from the 80s, lol
Actually pretty patrish. Specially digging that Chevy Blazer.
The 80s is one of my favorite decades as well, for reasons that go beyond cars.
The Mustang is actually an SVO.
well this was certainly harder than the last
my least favorite automotive decade

Same. The music, the movies, the art, the hopes in the people looking forward to the future. It's just beautiful.
About cars, even shitboxes were pretty. I think it has to do with the emissions and safety regulations that took away a lot of the designers' freedom. Back in the day they could apply the latest developments and create whatever shapes they wanted to without a lot of regulations getting in the way, but today it's borderline impossible. Regulations did away with the gorgeous popup headlights, they did away with aerodynamic designs, they did away with sleek cars. Even econoboxes were often attractive back then. On the bright side, at least I didn't live in the age of coke to become a junkie, kek.
On the 80s, Ferraris and becoming a coke junkie, have a screengrab from an era film hahah
