I'll edit my garage a bit... Number 8 for this

aa77382.jpg
 

Ridge Racer respect 👍

So anyway. The infamous 'top 10'. Well not quite infamous because it's not top 10 cars. Just road cars. Because driving a race car on the road will get the police on you.

Right. Top 10 road cars...in no order whatsoever.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X FQ-440 MR
m7iGch8.png

This one's too easy. A recent announcement, and there are more memorable Evos. As an Evo fan, for my dream garage, should I ignore those? The simple answer, after no thought at all, is yes, of course I can ignore the less powerful options. Going for one less powerful is like going all the way to Paris and staying in the outskirts. Like getting into bed with Marisa Miller and falling asleep. Buying a less powerful Evo is a sign that you’re sensible and grown up and worried about practicalities, in which case why don’t you buy a canal boat and go away.

If you’re going to buy a road-going rally car, you have to have the best, you have to have the fastest. And that’s the 440 MR. I will miss it. :'(

Ferrari FF
UH3zCZH.jpg

This does not deserve its hate.
I always thought it looked absolutely fine. As good as any Ferrari.
But the difference is...you can use this one in other places! And in all weather!
Isn't 4WD beautiful?

Caterham 620R
OKeJFCM.jpg

I say it again; with something like this, nothing but the fastest will do. And the Caterham with its madcap looks will always be my favourite lightweight.
James May: PLAY IT OUT

Audi RS2 Avant
xHa4Qgz.jpg

Ooh I love this thing. The start of the RS brand, and the embodiment of all fast Audis to come. And it's even a lovely looker as well.

Lancia 037 Stradale
BEtZs9h.jpg

Hey! I nominated this on the Cool Wall and it got Ice Box! I think you probably know why I love this thing so, then.

Cizeta V16T
wmPoF2D.jpg

Come on! Be realistic, my namesake is always gonna make it here. It's not my favourite car anymore but...the sheer lunacy behind it is inspiring. I mean in no way could a transversely mounted V16 supercar ever be a thing today. This is a one time thing given today's emissions regulations on cars. I'm loving it.

Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy
CwWlr78.jpg

I love a good hot hatch, and none has wooed me as well as the Megane recently. Not surprisingly an awesome drive with Renaultsport's magic, but also a yellow painted one looks nigh on unbelievable. The looks all blend so well and I love it for that.

Nissan Pulsar GTi-R
JAFY913.jpg

I like rally homologations. And this is one of the truest to its rally form. Unfortunately there isn't a single stock model left...my white speed machine will not be. Or...?

Mazda Familia GT-R
DRCkhst.jpg

I almost had to choose between the Pulsar and Familia...but I came to a compromise and sacrificed another car instead. I probably would have chosen the Familia, as it looks much better for me and I would choose it for everyday drives. The Pulsar for pure speed though.

Jaguar F-Type R Coupe
ZLbW8xu.png

This has already been mentioned a few times in this thread. And why not. The F-Type is just everything you need for a sports car. The V8S was good, especially being a convertible and all, but as I said with the Evo and Caterham: you can't just settle for something slower. You have to have the fastest. Which is why this will probably be replaced by the inevitable F-Type RS that will come out. Still brilliant though.

Very honourable mentions to the BMW Z3 M Coupe (which was here before the Caterham) and the Lotus Elise '96. They are the 11th and 12th cars I simply can't have here.
Wait...can I even say that??

Can I borrow this car every now and again? Was going to put it in my garage but the S2 just got it as I already had the RS4 down! :P
 
Mine isn't in order either.

Added a new car to my garage:

3. BMW M5 E34
bmw_m5_e34_black_and_white_1366x768_88779.jpg


Now, I've never really been a fan of BMW - but the one BMW that I'd love in my garage is the M5 E34... Not only is it an ordinary 5 Series that has been lavished with M Jewellery and M Modifications - but the styling makes it look like an aggressive beast waiting to be driven! The first time I really fell in love with this car was when I was watching Giorgi Tevzadze driving it on YouTube... Around Russian Streets... Sideways...

The Ford Crown Victoria has been given the boot... :grumpy:
 
I'd like to have a simple 2 car garage + driveway. So far the driveway spot and one garage spot are already filled, my 2 and my FB33 RX-7. Realistically, I'd like to add this in the next couple years:

2008_nissan_350z_nismo_roanoke_va_91896834916384981.jpg


A car of *my* time that I can keep for years. I prefer the exterior's more restrained looks to the 370, and the later HR models really make good power. The 350 seems to be an anomaly of sorts, as its one of the few 2000ish sports car that actually lost weight compared to it's 1990s predecessor. While the Nismo is heavier, I appreciate the suspension, seam welded chassis, and brake upgrades as well as the special tachometer. The car would receive full exhaust, stronger clutch, lighter flywheel, and a 4.08 final drive set. I like the design of the interior, in general, but the materials are awful. I'd likely do something like this to improve it a bit:

img-7697.jpg


Touch of suede/alcantara and a bit of carbon. Piano black would work just as well. Gives it almost an Aston Martin appearance.


If money were no object and my investments somehow take to the stratosphere, it will be this instead:

Lamborghini_Gallardo_large.jpg


6 speed manual. Capristo or Kreissieg exhaust. Otherwise stock.

Seems like a fun idea, I'll have a go. In no particular order:

Lamborghini Miura SV - The Miura is arguably one of the most beautiful cars ever made. The looks alone make it a stunning car. But add a 385 bhp 4.0 litre V12 mounted right behind the driver, and I imagine it to be an incredible experience to drive. Jay Leno daily drove one for years!

Lamborghini_Miura_SV.jpg


Jaguar E-Type - The E-Type is also a gorgeous car. It too has a gem of an engine, a flexible and sonorous straight 6. It handles impeccably and is more comfortable than many modern luxury cars, yet can dissect a twisty road with precision, speed, and character.

Jaguar-E-Type.jpg


Ferrari F40 - The F40 is one of the most visceral, raw, and insane cars ever built. It's notoriously hard to drive, and very fast. And for the sheer driving thrill it earns a place in my garage.

f402.jpg


MG TC - It's not as prestigious as the others, but I think it's just as pretty and is terrific to drive. It's simple and wonderful.

modelpicture.php


Aston Martin V12 Vantage - I'm a massive Aston fan, and the V12 Vantage is one of my favourites. It's gorgeous, has a V12, and a manual gearbox, all in a terrific chassis.

astonmartin.jpg


Aston Martin DB5 - Yep, another Aston. This one is quite similar to the E-Type in some ways. A classic British GT with gorgeous lines. When you see one you feel a need to sit in the driver's seat. I don't actually like the Bond connotation because I'm no James Bond, but I'd not let that stop me.

01_6809-large.jpg


Singer 911 - Arguably, the Porsche 911 is the ultimate incarnation of the sports car. And the Singer is arguably the ultimate classic 911. It's gorgeous to look at, with the whole car being basically bespoke, and it drives like a gem.

singer-porsche-911-silver-2000x1331-may-26-2012_11-57-28-856605.jpg


Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta - What more needs to be said about this one? If nothing else, look at what else I picked and it fits right in.

422989.PNG


Morgan 3 Wheeler - Fun. Pure fun.

2011-morgan-3-wheeler-lg.jpg


Caterham 7 - This one's for the driving enjoyment. Not really that bothered about the model, but I'd like one with 160-220 bhp, manual gearbox, and most of the performance hardware, but road tyres. Perhaps a Supersport R.

Large%20Image%20%28optional%29.jpg



You don't have to be terribly astute to notice a theme. There's only one truly modern car on the list in the form of the V12 Vantage, while the Morgan, Caterham, and Singer are all modernised versions of classics. They're all European, but let's not forget that the Americans and Japanese are just as good at making truly great, fun, and beautiful cars as the Europeans. It's all a matter of taste. And that said, I don't think there's a dream garage here I wouldn't be thrilled to own. There's so many cars I want to own that I could easily think up a completely different 10 car garage that I'd be just as happy to own.

Oh, and one other thing I just noticed but sort of knew: they all put more emphasis on the driving experience than outright speed. They're not the quickest on a track (Caterham possibly excluded), but ooze character and would be a true motoring experience.

Righty.

In no particular order...

- - - - - - - - - -

1) 2008 Bentley Continental GTZ

Everything Zagato touches turns to gold. The Continental is probably one of the best cars in production (excuse the iffy footy player image), so Zag body + Bentley = winning combination.

2008-Bentley-Zagato-GTZ-03.jpg


- - - - - - - - - -

2) 1948 Land Rover Series 1

The original and the best. Yes, it may surreptitiously share one or two parts with the respective Jeep of the period but that doesn't matter, because it's a Land Rover.

HUE-166.jpg


- - - - - - - - - -

3) 2010 Bowler Nemesis EXR

The prototype. The one with an actual interior. For those of you who don't know, Bowler makes special Land Rover-bodied rally-raid trucks, and the EXR is the evolution of their Range Rover-based model, the Nemesis. This still has all the Dakar-ready gear, but it's wrapped up in a quasi-road car body. Believe Richard Hammond described it as "Tarzan in a dinner suit", which sums it up quite well.

bowler-has-been-acquired-by-cpp-32692_1.jpg


- - - - - - - - - -

4) 1968 Dodge Charger

1968 because no split grille and those tail lights. Preferably with a big Mr. Angry sticker on it.

MR_ANGRY_Charger_by_Beowulf_BX.jpg


- - - - - - - - - -

5) 1969 Mr. Angry Inc. Dodge Charger Daytona "Project ANGRIER"

A pro-touring Dayclona? Who the hell would make one of them?

I've honestly never felt such a connection with any other car. Ever. I yearn to have it.

6) 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster 722 S

Because convertible, because fastest SLR ever, because special edition...

If you're not smiling at this then you have no soul and cannot be considered a car enthusiast

- - - - - - - - - -

8) RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF Porsche 964 Carrera 4 Pandora One

The first RWB Porsche I ever layed eyes on, been in love ever since. Was also built by FFTEC Motorsports in California, so it's no show queen.

RWB-Porsche-911-Rauh-Welt-Begriff-pandora-one-green-rear-view-stance.jpg


- - - - - - - - - -

9) 2012 Vauxhall Maloo VXR

I need a GM Zeta in my life.

VXR8%20Maloo.jpg


10) 2009 Škoda Superb Combi

This is easily the best car on sale in the world right now.

I'll take the pre-facelift model because it isn't ruined. It should also have the 3.6-litre VR6 and the 7-speed DSG please...

JMoney689's Dream Garage


2012 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4
It's got a screaming V10, it has 4WD, it combines German engineering with Italian Styling, and it's my all-time favorite car.
image.jpg


1970 Lamborghini Miura SV

It was the first supercar, designed by Bertone, and it took Ferrari 17 years to built a car that could beat it.
image.jpg


1974 Lamborghini Countach P400

It was a bright light in the darkness of the years following the oil crisis. The styling was hopelessly insane, and it's design cues are still influencing modern Lamborghinis. My all-time favorite classic car.
image.jpg


2014 Porsche Boxster S

By far the prettiest modern car.
image.jpg


2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS

The best performing 911 ever- the best-performing trim of the greatest sports car ever built.
image.jpg


1987 Porsche 959

Had styling that would define the 90's. A car based on the greatest sports car of all time, it was also banned by the U.S. Government.
image.jpg


1968 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C

One of the coolest cars ever built, and it is the hardest car to drive at any speed. Ever.
image.jpg


1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL

The prettiest car ever built- and that's before you open the doors.
image.jpg


1972 Lancia Stratos

Completely mental rally car- the last good RWD rally car, and did so with less than 300hp.
image.jpg


2003 Ford F-150 "Freedom Edition"

Is in the garage because I couldn't sell it after winning the lottery.
image.jpg


There were a couple of Ferraris I was going to add, but they just wouldn't look right sitting next to three Lamborghinis.

Remember this... Scrap most of it.
New Garage

1. Ferrari 250 GT California- Because it's one of the only Cabrios that I like, plus LOOK AT IT!! It's beyond gorgeous. It's one of those cars that you take it for a ride through the coast line, enjoying the view and that glorious looking thing.

1341618-ferrari-250-gt-california.jpg


2. Ferrari F40- Because what it represents. A fire-spitting monster! The looks, the noise, the brutality associated, the speed and the dangerousness. This car is not for the faint of heart. This is one of the manliest cars around. I do not care for it's difficulty to drive, I don't have any sense of self-preservation so I can enjoy the car

Ferrari_F40_at_Auto_Salon_Singen_Germany_432393386.jpg


3. Alfa Disco Volante- My dream garage is filled with beautiful cars, but this is the Holy Graal. I am an Alfista, I love Alfas and I could choose any car, but this has that place in my heart and can't get out. Inspired by the original Disco Volante, this revived name is just :drool: and I want to drive it more than anything.

008_AlfaRomeoDiscoVolante1.jpg


4. Volvo P1800- A simple, not fast, but classy every day car. I always wanted one, because they look amazing, is Volvo and is reliable as it can get. This is my choice of daily driver.

1969_volvo_p1800-pic-7831587960455063045.jpeg


6. Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS- Welcome to the manliest car in my garage. Forget the difficulty of driving a F40, this is the real deal. A lighter, faster version of the already dangerous 911. For me the best looking Porsche from the lot. Any Porsche fan has to have this car in his garage because this is the purest 911 you can get. Starting this and driving it is like injecting testosterone and hair comes sprouting out in each pore we have.

porsche-carrera-rs-2.7-06.jpg


7. Porsche 918 Spyder- My favourite of the three. This was designed for daily driving pleasure. It's (supposedly) economical, easy on the envoirment, confortable etc. The bonuses are the looks and the speed. If I had one I would daily drive it.

Porsche_918_Spyder_IAA_2013.jpg


9. Jaguar XK120- The fastest car in the world in it's time. Also one of the best looking ever. Having this piece of british motoring history is, in my opinion, better than having two E-Types. My weekend car because of the thrill of driving this bit of history. I love it more than any other Jag (but only slightly)

jaguar-xk120_1948_1600x1200_wallpaper_01.jpg


10. Mercedes 540K Autobahnkurier- Darth Vader would drive this. Anyone would drive this and look fearsome. This is a special edition 540K and I would have this, but I don't having a regular 540K. They are big, ostentatious and classy. I love this kind of cars.
32381-1.jpg


5.Morgan 3-Wheeler- Why you ask? C'mon look at it! Looks like a crippled car yet put you a grin in your face like nothing else. This sheer joy of driving this is beyond definition.

1330193-morgan-3-wheeler.jpg


8. Lamborghini Miura- How could I forgot this one? I already have beautiful cars in my garage and this is no exception. The looks, the thing passionately built, is just... there's no word to decribe it.

I'm just going to make up categories as I go.

DAILY DRIVER: 2013 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Wagon. Not too big, not too small. Great for road trips.
2014-E-CLASS-E63S-WAGON-785-01.png

WEEKEND CRUISER: 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. Blue and white, LS3 engine and air ride suspension. Would look similar to this.
art_morrison_bel_air_video.jpg

WEEKEND TOY: 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454. Period-correct parts (not exactly original)
69_Chevelle_SS396.jpg

SPORTS CAR (convertible): Jaguar F-Type Convertible
qQ_640.jpg

SPORTS CAR (coupe): Aston Martin DB9

CLASSIC COUPE: 1954 Mercedes 300SL
Mercedes-Benz-300_SL_Gullwing_1954_1024x768_wallpaper_06.jpg

SUPER CAR: McLaren F1. Everything else sucks.
McLaren-F1_1993_800x600_wallpaper_01.jpg

ELECTRIC CAR: Tesla Model X. Because Model S is too mainstream.

"Because I can, that's why" CAR:
Untitled.png


Ferrari (because it's illegal not to have a Ferrari in your dream garage):
Ferrari 288 GTO.
Ferrari-288-GT0-Red-Front-Quarter-Angle-4-st.jpg

Honorable Mention: Ford GT40. I like the 300Sl more, sorry. 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34, obviously). Absolutely love this car... but there's no point in keeping it for the time being since I can't go anywhere in it.

Edit #1-I'm removing the S6 because I will never see snow.

Harsk's Dream Garage*
1. Ford Focus FR200- It's my favourite car and I always loved this one.
2. Toyota Starlet GLS'87- An great hatchback and I like old cars.
3. Gillet Vertigo- An great car and I would like to get this vehicle. But it would be good if I would obtain an race car version too!
4. Lotus Elise (Series 1)- An great convertible vehicle to drive! Very worth it to obtain one of these on garage!
5. Ferrari 288 GTO- It's ilegal not having an Ferrari and the sound is very interesting
6. Mini Cooper WRC- It has an great sound and my favourite rally car!
7. Toyota Corolla WRC- Is an great vehicle and great sound!
8. Peugeot 106 S1 (Kid)- It's an great vehicle and it was my favourite car! Representing the kids! :D
9. Renault Clio Oasis- An great wheels and a great body!
10. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX Rally (Group N)- A great sound and my Group N favourite car!

*My dream garage won't be getting only 10 cars! It will get every single car in the world!
 
LJ12`s dream garage.


1: Alpina B12 5.7 coupé.

alpina b12 forfra A.jpg


This is to me, the most beautiful car ever made; Period. The low slung body, the long bonnet, the lovely interior, and the gorgeous sound of an S70 V12. Could go on forever about this car, but have to keep it short I guess... This would be my show car, and would only be used very rarely.

2: Lamborghini Miura SV.

Lamborghini-Miura_SV_1971_1600x1200_wallpaper_03.jpg


Whos can`t include this in their list? The first, proper supercar ever made. This is a very close compeditor to the world`s most beautiful car. And the sound of the magic Bizzarini V12 is just lovely, agressive and screams like an engine should! I have never seen one of these IRL, but I really hope to do so. Would have used this as pure summer toy.

3: BMW 850CSI.

1261179494_bmw-e31-850-csi.jpg


This is yet another 8-Series, but not any 8-Series. Like the B12 5.7 coupé, this is rare. The fun thing is that the 850CSI is based on the B12 5.7 coupé... Anyways, I say that the 850CSi is for me an ultimate dreamcar. It works just aswell on the autobahn as on the Nurburgring. Not only is this a proper high performance Gran Tourer, it can also be used everyday. And it turns head like no other BMW. This would have been my daily driver.

4: Dodge Challenger R/T 1971

1971_dodge_challenger-pic-3053.jpeg


My favorite muscle car, and mopar as well. A 440 HEMI roaring under the long bonnet, aswell as providing the best sound of any V8 to this day. As a muscle car, nothing comes close to the Challenger R/T `71 IMO. It is possibly the most striking muscle car aswell. Would have used this car on warm and sunny days as the Miura.

5: Ferrari 550 Maranello.

9_24.jpg


This is to me, my favorite Ferrari. Usually, the 550 is overshadowed by the 575. The 550 is one of those rare cars which look good in any color. I would have picked a car with a gated manual transmission, because of the unique look and feel of it. I would have used this as a weekend pride and joy.

6: Lamborghini Diablo SE30

Lamborghini-Diablo_SE_1994_photo_01.jpg


This unique Diablo was made to celebrate Lamborghini`s 30th anniversary. This was apretty stripped out road car, things such as air conditioning, radio etc. Was out of question. Altough a radio isn`t necisary when you have an agressive and lovely V12 behind you. As with the Alpina, I would rarely use this car, because of the very few numbers this car was made.

7: Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale

59-AlfaRomeo_Giulietta_SS_DV-07-MB_001.jpg


This has to be the most beautiful Alfa ever made. Compact body, timeless soul and charm. And it is an Alfa Romeo. Enough reasons for me to love this car! Love Alfa Romeo`s in the first place, and this is my all time favorite Alfa Romeo of all time. This would be my summer joy, along with the Miura and the Challenger.

8: Alfa Romeo 156 GTA Sportwagon.

Alfa_romeo_156_gta_silver_sportwagon_front.jpg


An estate which is both beautiful and sporty? Yes, those cars exist, and one of very few, is the 156 GTA Sportwagon. Although not a practical car, (It has a smaller luggage compartment than the sedan...) It is a beautiful and gorgeous estate with the best six cylinder engine ever made: The Busso V6. This would have been my everyday car to use for more practical occasions.

9: Audi RS5 Coupe Facelift.

maxresdefault.jpg


A proper M3 killer: The Audi RS5. Low agressive looks you expect from a coupé, and a glorious V8 to complete the package. Sadly, this is one of the last modern cars to feature an N/A engine. This would have been my go to car when the weather would have been terrible, or when I would have a blast around the nearest track day.

10: BMW X6 M50d xDrive.

_MAX7893_002_2331_j_488692b.jpg


What is a car list like this without a diesel monster? For me, this has to be it. A rather controversial car, with ridicilous bad practicality for a car at this size. Anyways, I love the car, and think it`s one of the best looking, and agressive BMW`s ever made. I would have used this car when I needed to tackle awful roads.





I have a lot more, but I sadly have to limit it to these ten cars. Anyways, these are my ten cars I would have in a proper dream car garage, and I may be wrong or right... Anyways, hope you enjoy my list.
 
Turtle's Dream Garage
1. Singer Porsche 911- What can I say? This is probably as close to perfect as a car can get, there's just so much good on this car- The 3.8 liter Cosworth flat six, Fuchs-style wheels, beautiful interior, etc. I do have one complaint though; I don't like the Singer logo put over the normal Porsche logos. I'll take one in dark metallic blue with silver decals, and dark grey wheels.

t11-porsche-911-restored-singer.jpg

2. 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera R.S. 3.0- Some say that the '73 R.S. is the ultimate factory 911-they're wrong-this is. Reading about it, someone said the '73 was 80 percent Carrera, but the '74 is 80 percent RSR. Too bad it isn't as handsome as the '73. I want one in black with gold accents.

tporsche-911-carrera-30-rs-01.jpg

3. Toyota SW20 (2nd gen) MR2 Turbo- These things are insane, who thought selling such a tail-happy car to the public for a modest price was a good idea? Whoever they are, I love them. A dark red one, please.
t9.jpg

4. Mazda '97 NA (1st gen) Miata- This is a hard list, to make, meaning that the Triumph TR6 and Lotus Elan didn't make the cut (I did put them in my 20 car garage, however). In their place is this thing. Why this and not the others? Two reasons- it has modding potential and it will consistently work. Special Edition British Racing Green or Sparkle Green Metallic will do.

t12-motorlist-multi-mazda-mx5-shoot-016.jpg

5. Volvo 240 GLT Estate- Wagons are cool, and this is one of the coolest wagons around. Practical and if it collided with a tank, the 240 would win. Unfortunately, they aren't all that quick. Nothing an engine swap can't fix. I want a blue one.

tvolvo-240-glt-estate-05.jpg

6. Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale- Apparently, if I don't have an Alfa in my dream garage, the car gods will make me suffer an intolerable fate for the rest of eternity. If I'm to have an Alfa, I'll have the one with a V8 that revs to 10,000 RPM and makes nearly 250 HP. Oh yeah, I forgot that it's gorgeous. I think it would look great in Black or dark blue, but I don't think they made any that aren't red. I want one with the double headlights, and bronze wheels.

talfa_romeo_33_stradale_prototipo_3.jpg

7. Porsche 997 911 GT3RS MKI- I love this car so much I painted my room Porsche Signal Green with black accents. Guess what color I'd take one in.

t7698443914_376e8c85f4_b.jpg

8. Datsun 240Z- Old Datsuns are some of my dad's favorite cars, and he passed this on to me. Very few front-engined cars look better than this. What a stellar car; I don't even have a color preference, maybe silver, or yellow like the one in Nissan's heritage fleet.

t108a_2-1971-datson-240z-.jpg

9. Alpine A110 1600 SI- I can't think of a prettier French car, and this might have the nicest looking interior I've ever seen. There's so much cool about this car; Beautiful, simplistic styling, driver-focused interior, rally heritage, rear-engined- I could go on and on. It must be in blue, any other color just looks wrong.

talpine-renault-a110-berlinette.jpg

10. Ferrari F40- I needed a supercar on this list, I also needed a Ferrari. This was an easy choice. I don't care that it isn't an original color or that it's a limited production vehicle, I need one in NART blue in my life.

I'm going to make a change to my garage as I have to find space for an Eagle E-Type Low Drag Coupe...

20131114-220233.jpg


A bit pricy at c.£700k, but Jesus wept, what a beautiful car
 
Molieg's Dream Garage

10.- Mercedes Benz GLK.- For starters, how about this one? The first time I saw this one, I fell in love. Had to leave out of my list the Toyota RAV4 & Land Cruiser, but I couldn't care less... this baby is gorgeous to look at from any angle and has a state-of-the-art interior.

GLK-INSERT4.jpg


9.- Dodge RAM Laramie Longhorn:
There are 2 kinds of trucks in my dictionary: RAM Trucks, and just about everything else...

2011_dodge_ram-laramie-longhorn_f34_ns_923102_717.jpg


8.- Bentley Continental GT Convertible:
My list needed a Convertible, a RED Convertible... so here it is. Huge, luxurious and Powerful, this car is exactly what I need for a weekend trip...

Bentley-Continental_GT_Speed_Convertible_2014_1280x960_wallpaper_16.jpg


7.- Renault Clio V6:
I own a regular Clio. And I love that car so much! But I've always felt the little fella needs more power... The solution: V6. Because more power is always the answer! Driving this daily would make any trip feel like an adventure!

RenaultClioV6.jpg


6.- Chrysler 300:
Sorry Jaguar, I really wanted to put one here, but... it's THE CHRYSLER 300, and I love it.

chrysler300s000.jpg


5.- Dodge Charger R/T
: Mainstream decision. But I don't bloody care! Besides, my list needed an old-school Muscle Car and I have only 10 slots for my dream garage...

4.jpg


4.- Lamborghini Murciélago
: My favourite Lamborghini has to be here. Epic look and SCREAMING V12 make it an easy selection.

Lamborghini-Murcielago-Green.jpg


3.- Bugatti Veyron EB16/4
: This car needs no introduction at all. All hail the Speed King... In fact, I could make a list of the 10 Bugatti Veyron Versions/Colour Variations I'd love to have... Power, beauty, luxury... this car has it all, it's a true work of art...

Bugatti-Veyron_2005_1280x960_wallpaper_03.jpg


2.- Dodge Challenger SRT/8
: Another choice had to be made... the Classic, '70-'71 one, or the more modern one??? And I ended up with this one. Why? Because I 🤬 love it! That's why... Love the size, the intimidating look, the modern technology, the speed, the colours, the power, the HEMI, Scat Pack, Mopar Heritage... list goes on like forever... Promised myself I'd have one of these, and quite probably, this is he only car from this list I REALLY WANT TO HAVE IN REAL LIFE...

c283530042012181329_1.jpg


1.- Dodge Viper GTS '96
: The Holy Grial of my garage. The car that started it all... This car changed my mind forever the very 1st time I saw in on the GT1 intro movie: "What car is that???" I asked... This car is simply, my wildest dream...

Do I want it? 🤬 Yes!!! As much as the Challenger??? YESSS!!! More than the Challenger???? Hmmm... Almost... My answer would have been yes a couple of years ago, but the Challenger has grown on me...

1996 or 2006, any of them would be just fine...
