More Obtainable Dream Car:

Fantastic choice Sir. One of my favourite classics full stop. The perfect Alfa? Rear-drive, twin cam, pretty, light, practical, inexpensive, fun...

Too bad the only two affordable ones on UK eBay at the moment are creeping up to double my car budget... :(
 
Erm....and why no comment about the CLK GTR? That used to be the most expensive road car you could buy. There were around 20 of them.

Oh, I was just reffering to the other guy saying that it's hard to find a GT-R in Pennsylvania, since I made a comparison between the two cars saying I'd rather have the Nismo Z-Tune. :)
 
MY choice would be the 1970 Chevy El Camino SS 454 (LS6 of course), in Corvette yellow with black stripes. :drool:
 
Wow, lots of GT-R guys here...

I have always wanted one of these:

And if I had to choose a newer car, I'd definitely take this:

Yep, that's the one my avatar is from. :drool:
 
1994 Mercedes-Benz E500.

Yeah, I've been burned by the three pointed star. I've plotted the demise of a local dealer for rude staff and nonexistent service. I'm running away from Mercedes-Benz for a long time. But I don't care. It's a Mercedes so awesome, Mercedes couldn't handle the awesomeness. They had to have Porsche put it together, because the Mercedes engineers were too busy wetting themselves over a car that actually understood the concept of acceleration.
 
You do know that you can buy very decent examples of both of those cars for oh, say, under $2000 each? You could have both easily enough. Though I have to say, even by mid-'70s standards, the Mark V has always been the every-day car winner of the coveted "Most Titanic Exterior Size for Least Usable Interior Space Ratio" prize.


Under $2000 each!!! That seems borderline crazy. Used cars in my area of SC are insanely overpriced. They want $6500 for a 10 year old pickup truck with 175,000 miles on it and beat to hell inside and out. :yuck: A '70's Lincoln or Cadillac under $2000 around here...... Well I don't even want to think about the condition of it. A good condition Cadillac or Lincoln of that era around here would probably go for around 7-10000 dollars. :grumpy:
 
There are too many to choose, from the McLaren F1 to the Diablo SE30 Jota. But, if I solely had to pick one, it'd be the Reventon.

It's tough to say because favourite's can change, but my favourite car for a while has been the Dauer 962, there is something I just love about that car, of coursepicking between the roadcar in black or the Rotherham's 956/962 Le Mans prototype's would be a very difficult decision.

I agree, it's a shame the G8 will have such a short run.

Well there as so many great cars to choose.

I'm sure I could dream bigger but...

2002 Phase III Camaro ZL-1 Supercar

69 Produced
31 Phase III Produced

The Phase III had a 427ci/7.0L, C5-R LS-6 making 600hp 575FPT. The spec sheet is to long to post but the motor alone says enough. Built by GMMG, same people who made the Earnhardt Intimidator 400hp SS and the Tom Henry Camaro Supercar.

It's begging for a traffic stop, and it's behind chains.

I bet this car stays thirsty for some premium fuel.

This exact car sold for 119,000 USD.

And a video of a Yellow ZR-1. This car sounds amazing IMO, especially around 1:40 on with the in car driving.

 
Eather a Revention, or to have the cash to build my self a tuner, like a s2k or something, Maybe Integra Type R.

Why build a tuner? I love the feeling of putting not only money, but work into something to seeing results as you go!

My UDC would be that which doesn't exist (unless a replica has been made that I'm not aware of) in the real world, in which case there are too many to list.

In the real world, these would be contenders:

MC12 Corsa:
2060529.006.Mini2L.jpg


Veyron Sang Bleu:


FXX Evoluzione
9071029.001.Mini5L2.jpg


McLaren F1 GTR LM:

Lamborghini Reventon Roadster:

NSX Mugen RR (Concept):

Sorry for all the images, but I can't pick just one! :D

 
Both are my dream cars:


lotuselise111r.jpg

Lotus Elise 111R


ferrarif40.jpg

Ferrari F40

No big surprise if you know me enough, that is. If I could own both, I would be a happy man.
