If You Could only Drive One Car for the Rest of Your Life, What Would it be?

[BumbleBeest9000]

I know this isn't a competetion, but I win.

I'll have to ride a bicycle everywhere else, but I think it's worth it if I can listen to that engine!

I Would like a car, where i don't have to worry about crashing it and have to spend a lot so:

It's illegal EVERYWHERE.
On the track and on the street, so no worries and no cost of fuel etc.

Too bad you will not be able to do so, eventually.

For me:

Mercedes-Benz 300E (W124).

Famously reliable, 3.0 with 185 HP (or 220 HP, depending on the year), 25 MPG, classy, comfortable, safe enough. You can't ask much more.

22B STi, my most favorite STi of all time, and unfortunately I was too young to realize what the heck it was when it came out. Too bad there isn't any I know of in America.

I've seen two in the Cincinnati area. I think one of them is on Nasioc. 👍

 

[Jondot]

Had a change of heart. This'll do nicely.

This is under the assumption that I wouldn't have to pay for it, of course.

 

[AzNTypeR]

NSX-R easily! You pretty much know the NSX as 'The everyday Supercar'. Its a Honda so it'll last for decades, And its got a VTEC!

 

[ghskilla]

McLaren MP4-12C. Comfortable, does good gas mileage (24.2mpg) and is quick, too. For sheer speed and performance, look no further than the McLaren F1.

Yeah, I wouldnt want an Italian super car.

It'd get stolen so fast I wouldnt be able to break 100miles on the Odo.

Which is it? I agree 1 gazillion percent on the F1 (despite my C2 fetish), but I don't care for the MP3-12pack or whatever they call it.

If I had one car to drive for the rest of my life, I'd want a fun car. After tolerating the nonexistent comfort of the Mini for some 2.5 years now, every other car I've ridden in feels comfortable. So as long as the seats are good, I can live with a sports suspension. Unfortunately, a Mini, even with the burbly exhaust note of the newest iteration, doesn't hold the candle to the nice sound of a V8. And it does require a bit of winding up to get going; it can feel sluggish at low speeds. So instead, I'd opt for a C4 Corvette, preferably a first phase model; the updated C4 doesn't look as distinctive. Great low-end grunt, sounds nice, has nice, precise steering like the Mini, and has that oh so cool T-Top. With 250 horsepower and a weight of 3200 lbs, it's out accelerated by the newest V6 Mustang, but a V6 Mustang will never be have the charm of a classic Corvette. The ride is, well, unnerving; it feels like the body panels are rattling against the frame whenever you hit a bumpy road, and it's one of the stiffest suspensions you'll experience on a smooth road. But still, the seats are good, the seating position is racey, and it's fun to drive at any speed.

I'll go with a previous-gen M5. 5 Seats, and allegedly fairly comfortable. Sounds good to me.

This. I will own one of these someday.

Ferrari F355 Best car ever

 

[MarinaDiamandis]

Lotus Exige with a VAG turbo engine fitted. Just brilliant.

It's been a while since I last posted in here - and I've got to change my pick. I've fallen in love with the Mercedes-Benz CE 300 6.3 AMG as of late. Saw one a while ago, and, well... Those things are stunning. I don't really know what it is that makes them so desirable to me, but:

Yummy!

 

[savage388]

Since I live up north I cant really drive my trans am the rest of my life, so id go with the original hummer h1. With the banks package of course.

 

[MoLiEG]

This:

Basic, powerfull, terrifying...

I will own one someday...

 

[Slash]

I think everyone knows what I'll drive....

 

[Phoenix]

Very serious SLS AMG!

 

[Robbo1997]

Frothhhhhhhhh!!!!

 

[Turtle]

Either an AE86 or a Honda S2000. Love those cars to death.

There are a billion other cars that I like almost as much, but those two are just a little above the rest.

2 years ago, I had decided I could live with the Gallardo for the rest of my life, but recently, I've had to change that choice after seeing the Aventador Roadster. Where do I sign?

 

[Kitten]

Well on that Bombshell this

 

[Murcie_LP640]

The McLaren MP4-12C Spider; 2013 specification with the drivetrain revisions and more power.

Bit soulless, bit clinical. But also stonkingly fast and yet everyday-usable. And if I had to drive a single car for the rest of my life, that's exactly what I'd be looking for.

I'd love to own an Aventador as a weekend car. But I wouldn't really want to live with one as a daily driver.
