We got a ton of comments on the list of “Top Ten Vehicles That Need to Come Back”. I didn’t include any of the cars below cause they are all from dead brands. But if we lived in an alternate universe, then yes, all of these rides would need to come back! See the rest of the list after the jump!

Duh.

Starting this week, our buddies at Fast Lane Daily will be featuring a CarDomain member’s ride every Wednesday. Yesterday, I sent Mike Spinelli links to some of the rides we’ve written about recently, and Mike picked this ’81 Citation that Jen blogged last month. You’ll see Dwayne’s burly Chevy at around the 4:00 minute mark. And like Derek D says, if you want to get your car on Fast Lane Daily, you gotta have a ride page on CarDomain. We’ll be looking out for you.

I’ve always had a place in my heart for these funny little cars, and this is probably the most insane Citation I’ve seen on CarDomain. Dwayne has swapped in a twin-turbocharged 3.1 V6 and is running nitrous, and he’s updated the Citation with a ton of modified parts from Grand Nationals, Cutlasses, and Grand Prix. The all-steel fender flares were hand-fabbed, as was a lot of other stuff on this ride. Check out his page!

I love it when people make fire-breathing beasts out of cars that most everyday people wouldn’t give the time of day to. An especially impressive example is Tyre’s one-off Chevy Citation "SS."  He’s swapped in the supercharged GM 3.8L V6 used in the late 90′s and early 00′s in such cars as the Riviera and Monte Carlo SS.  Still think Citations are junk? Then check out Tyre’s other ride, a Citation X-11. The factory 2.8L V6 had 400,000 miles on it and was still running strong when he swapped it out for a 4.9L V8. Great cars, Tyre!
