MMG kid Rockie Fresh was born in the '90s, but when it comes to his automotive taste, he might as well be 10 years older. Fresh has an appreciation for a decade that most don't necessarily think of as a golden age. He's already the proud owner of a Delorean, and he's got some big plans of building a fleet of cars you wouldn't see in other rapper garages. We spoke to him about which models he's particularly fond of. Check out Rockie Fresh's 10 Favorite Cars.

10. Range Rover

"They released a lot of fly stuff in the '80s, but there are a few cars in the '90s like the G-Wagen and the Range Rover that I really respect."

9. Ford Mustang

"I kinda grew away from the Mustang the older I got, but the '80s models were nice. They had that classic feel. They used to have some fly colors and the stripes on there. They had that vintage look. The new ones were like a knock-off versions of the originals. They just got less fly to me."

8. Ford Thunderbird

"I've always been a fan of those."

7. Lamborghini Murcielago

"I drove the Murcielago, too. It was an interesting shifting with the hand pedals versus it being a foot thing, but it was a smooth ride. It was fun."

6. Chevrolet Impala

"These are classic."

5. Chevrolet Camaro

"The Camaro is a pretty fly joint that came out in the '80s. Those are cars that I mess with."

4. Ferrari Testarossa

"It's just a boss car. There's something about Ferraris that have always stood out. The bodies are nice. They've got that fly boy feel to them. I just like them."

3. Porsche 911

"I had an appreciation for that whip before Ross made the song for God Forgives, I Don't. Then, when I heard that record, it just rejuvenated that."

2. Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen

"The G-Wagen is one of my favorite joints. Benz didn't really switch it up too much. They always kept the same body no matter what they change on the inside. This is definitely going to be my next whip."

1. Delorean

"One day I was in L.A. and I knew that i wanted to put out another mixtape. I liked my other project, because it really gave people a futuristic vibe. I have always been a big fan of the movie Back to the Future. I was just watching it randomly, smoking out, and he was saying the DeLorean needs to get to 88 mph to get to the destination. It just popped out to me. My music has it's own pace. My voice has a different tone, and that's just my speed to get to where I want to go. I don't have to switch it up too much.

"Basically, the DeLorean was perfect to give me that vibe, because it automatically makes people see Back to the Future. If I would have named the project Drivin' 88 and didn't have that DeLorean on there, people would have taken it as driving on I-88 in Chicago somewhere. I didn't want that to be the vibe. The Delorean really helped me paint that picture and give the people that futuristic feel."
