Ever come across those car shows that feature classic cars that have been owned by one faithful owner for decades? The cars in question have been lovingly cared for and act as loyal servants for countless years.

The prancing horse, or better yet known as Ferrari, has long been the purveyor of a car ownership experience that's unlike any out there. From its bedroom wall poster to clocking in rapid lap times worldwide, the Italian manufacturer is a true legend in the automotive world. While taking ownership of a Ferrari is a milestone in anyone's life, it does come with a tax - the actual cost of owning one and allowing it to clock in the miles and provide you with a good time on every drive out. Breaking through the matrix that is Ferrari ownership is otherworldly, but worry not: there is always a solution. Present today is this 1986 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole. With a reported 24,000 miles on its clock, this is the answer to all your prancing horse problems and has always been labeled as a "usable" Ferrari.
Pontiac has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.
With its roots in 1885, the Triumph Motor Company of Great Britain is one of the country’s most well-known sports car makers. They’re known for a fine line-up of TR models which are sports cars, typically open-topped ones called Roadsters. Sadly, Triumph went bust in 1984, but the assets are currently owned by BMW. While the Bavarian automaker shows no plans to resurrect the brand, much of their historic production still remains alive. This 1971 Triumph TR6 is one such example and it’s for sale in Greenville, South Carolina. With its 2.5-liter straight six, convertible top cover and original owner’s manual, this is a fine catch for someone who wishes to sample the British Roadster lifestyle. And let us tell you, it’s quite an addictive driving experience!
