Hello, everyone. Diego usually shares his favorite vehicles on AutoHunter with you, but this week I’m filling in for him.
If you’re reading this right now, you’ve probably daydreamed about having a garage full of vehicles for different purposes and occasions. Maybe you’d have a luxury sedan for date nights, a pickup for home improvement projects, and a sporty coupe for commuting. That’s the idea behind my well-rounded trio of AutoHunter selections today. The first one is a sports car, the second is a convertible, and the third is a four-wheel-drive SUV.
33K-Mile 1989 Ferrari 348TB
Nothing says “Ferrari” like red paint and nothing says “1980s Ferrari” like side strakes. This 348TB has both of those characteristics plus some significant bonus items: a set of lightweight 18-inch magnesium wheels and a Tubi Style exhaust system.

As its name implies, this prancing horse has a 3.4-liter V8 behind the seats, which is connected to a gated five-speed manual gearbox – another very Ferrari touch. What do the 33,100 miles on the odometer say? “Someone needs to buy this car and drive it fast.”

400-Powered 1969 Pontiac Firebird Convertible
Zooming around in an exotic sports car is fun, but sometimes it’s nice to do some top-down driving. And if you can do that in an American classic like this 1969 Pontiac Firebird, even better. In addition to its attractive combination of newer Carousel Red with a white soft top over a Parchment vinyl interior, it has some important mechanical upgrades.

The original 350ci V8 has been replaced with a 400, which comes equipped with Holley Sniper fuel injection and nitrous oxide. Can’t picture yourself driving this Firebird yet? The video below should help.

350-Powered 1980 Jeep CJ-7
There’s nothing like getting away from traffic and chain restaurants and going off-road in a rugged SUV. You can escape from the suburban grind even faster thanks to this rig’s carbureted Chevrolet 350ci V8. To make sure you don’t get stuck along the way, there’s a winch, rock sliders, and a high-lift jack.
Thanks for checking out my AutoHunter picks. Diego will be back next week with his latest selections.
