What is your DREAM car?

[Musmar]

Post your dream car!!

Here's one of mine (i have a few)

http://www.pistonheads.com/uploads/news/7001-4.jpg

Mercedes SLR!

[galileo]

I don't think I have a dream car but there are a few I dig. Audi TT, Mercedes C430, BMW M5, Audi A8, Porsche anything, and so forth.

[Gyno Rhino]

Acura NSX.

It's actually in a price range I could possibly afford, plus it's stylish as all hell, mid-engined, quick but not too extreme... Just a great car.

[GonePostal]

NSX is all good except it takes the super out of supercar

[MixmasterNash]

Any classic Ferrari or Jaguar.

But really, any Group B rally car.

[Jasonl]

I'm with galileo, I dont' have an exact dream car, but I do like quite a few nice cars. One car I would really like to have is a TT Supra, I love those things. I would also love to have a CL600 benz.:drooling:

[thetopdog]

McLaren F1, anybody who names another car is setting their sites too low ;)

[JTyrell710]

topdog, what if i said enzo?..wouldnt be that much lower
but i hate enzo's, right now my dream is lotus espirit or a 67 mustang

[Jasonl]

The Porshce GT is very drool-worthy, too.

[Jawz928]

The new Chrysler ME412 is actually a step up from both the McLaren F1 and Ferrari Enzo.

[ogarchamplin]

A Classic Mint 72 Ford Torino Sport with a 429 Cobra Jet engine...or a Buick Grand National

[VasDeferens]

my neighbor's car

...doesnt matter what brand or model it is.

[Beast]

A Classic Mint 72 Ford Torino Sport with a 429 Cobra Jet engine...or a Buick Grand National
Aw, come on ogar. I'd much rather have a Cobra jet in this car:

[Brawl]

Not a big car guy here but a nice chopper would do .

A guy I know has his Porche in some european roadracer magazine . His name is Buddy Gainey . Check it out , it is pretty awesome . He trains at our gym , rich bastard .

[Saint Patrick]

Nuff Said:

[entrrt]

BMW M5....yummy!!!

[Musmar]

Oh yeah, the M5 is a cool car too. The new BMW 6 series should kick ass too!

[Behemoth]

Chevy Silverado 3500 4x4 ext. cab, 6.5' bed, at least 12" total lift and 38" swamper tires, brush guards, roll bar, off-road lights, nerf bars, and a hot blonde chick in the passenger seat.

The European's response.....

Yeah, wow, I never heard of this Konigsegg CCR but looks very impressive....I did a little research on the ME412 and the CCR, well take a look for yourself

ME412
Horsepower: 850bhp @ 5750rpm
0 - 60mph: 2.9 seconds
Top Speed: 248mph
0 - 1/4 mile: 10.6@142mph

CCR
Horsepower: 806bhp @ 6900rpm
0 - 60mph: 3.2 seconds
Top Speed: est. 242mph
0 - 1/4 mile: est. 9 seconds at 146mph

I'm too tired to list any more specs but boths cars are fairly matched and found out both companies claim to have the fastest street legal car but I would take either lol.

[jagleaso]

I will take a zx12r ... but a green one of course.

[Reinier]

Mine would not be a race car. I would want it to be a huge, heavy custom hand made luxury car, like a Bentley or a top model Rolls-Royce.

[kAiXuan]

ferrari f355 spider

Except the Koenigsegg exists and the ME doesn't. The scissor doors are hot. Look for the top gear video of the car and be prepared to drool. That said, any Ferrari will own it's ass in pure sexiness.

[J450n]

McLaren F1 or Dodge Viper GTSR.

Last I head, most of the specs on the ME412 were just estimates, whereas the CCR had been tested and proven. I'm not too sure though. You're right, they both are crazy.

[KrAzY]

My dream car would have to be a 50 ton tank.

[ReturnedFire]

my "could come true" dream car is ... actually i don't really have one of those. if i got something new right now, i'd get an Acura RSX-S, but that's hardly a "dream" car. i also like RX-8, G35, Maxima, the Z, and a bunch more.

my "no way in hell" dream car is the Porsche 911 GT2 :D but i also really like the GT3

RX-8=go-kart....SOOOOO fun to drive!

[ReturnedFire]

i didn't think the RX-8's were that nice, but i saw one in real life, and it looked really sweet. rotary power! :)

I don't really care for them too much either, but they are too much fun to drive. The only problem is the engine, lots of problems. I guess Mazda can't build a reliable sports car, other than the Miata. Even though I don't really consider the Miata a "sports car".

Is it really that bad? I guess this surprises me since the engine has won so many awards...

[Nitr0x]

Ya, theres quite a few problems with the rx8 renesis engine

[harryhoudini66]

I have my dream car. It almost got me killed today though when the breaks stopped working. I ran a few intersections before it slowed down enough.


66 Ford Mustang with after market 302 engine.

[JD77]

Chevy Silverado 3500 4x4 ext. cab, 6.5' bed, at least 12" total lift and 38" swamper tires, brush guards, roll bar, off-road lights, nerf bars, and a hot blonde chick in the passenger seat.

38's are gonna look tiny under a 12 inch lift. That said, I agree. Give me a pickup any day. If I had to choose a car, it would be a 71 Charger RT or a Plymouth GTX.

[Khar]

996 Turbo...I can't wait to see the 997

[ericg]

I will take a zx12r ... but a green one of course.

Not bad. but I prefer the '04 R1. Looks sweet with the exhaust under the seat.

[Jasonl]

The '04 R1 looks amazing! I wish I could get one.... EIther that or a Busa. Either one of those bikes would get me into plenty of touble.:D

[talonted]

Audi S4, I should have one soon.

[MixmasterNash]

996 Turbo...I can't wait to see the 997

Well, a 996 gets it on with a 993 and they have a baby... the 997.


Audi S4, I should have one soon.

Nice. A B5 or B6? Get the wagon and laugh at all those dumb slow SUVs with less cargo space.

[BHerks]

i couldnt pick one but any of these; 87 buick gnx, 71 gto judge, enzo, 996 turbo, gt2-gt3, lambo countach-diablo, lotus espirit. OR the ultimate: 97 acura3.0CL w/j32 6spd swap, fully built, turbo'd and some mugen mf8's.

[TBone4Eva]

My dream car would be the Maybach. I would just love to be able to recline in my backseat with a roof that goes from opage to transparent at the touch of a button. Oh and did I mention even though it's 3,000 lbs heavier it will outperform a Corvette.

Probably couldn't get much bigger than forties - fourty-two's under 12 inches. We're talking about big, fat, wide swampers here... they'll rub.

[beastin v6]

HeyTBone4Eva those are some hott cars.

My dream car would be a Supercharged 1997 Toyota Supra.

[Jasonl]

Supsercharged Supra??
The Supra is designed for a turbo, which it came with stock(2jz-gte), there was a non-turbo model(2jz-ge), but I doubt you would be able to find a supercharger kit for it. I'm sure you could get a custom kit, though. It would just cost a lot more....

I want to see pics of your car man!! I really like the 65-70's mustangs!!

[Mighty Mouse]

My dream car would be a Ford ( :bang: sorry I said the F-word) Pinto!!!!! This way when I wake up and jump in my 86 Monte Carlo SS I feel like I'm in heaven.

[heathj]

bugatti.

[Big & Tall]

A Ferrari Enzo. It is the most amazingly beautiful piece of engineering art I have ever seen. A car with but one purpose--to go obscenely fast. No radio. No cup holders. Just my ass strapped to an engine, with some carbon fiber for aerodynamics. What more could I want?

A car that looks and feels good? I have to admit, the Enzo is the ultimate go fast machine, basically a F1 car for the street, but it's too... German. Not as much pure sex as a new Maranello, let alone a classic model.

Of course, you can ALWAYS just close your eyes, listen to a Ferrari engine, and die happy.

Then again, I will be buying a Lotus Elise someday, for the purest driving experience.

Here's my ride. :cool:

Although, in all seriousness, I really like cars made by TVR.

I'm not sure which corvette you think this will outperform but at 5000+ lbs it will surely not out handle a corvette. It's 0-60 time is 5.x seconds. Again both the c5 and the z06 are faster. The z06 being around 4 seconds flat.

[Reinier]

You Americans need to get with the time man, start driving some real cars.

Some of My pals and I were having the age old what if? discussion this morning.
So here goes, if for whatever reason, lottery, inheritance, competition, you came in to a s*** load of cash, what car would you buy?

I think it would have to be the new Aston Martin DB9!

[MrWebb78]

any electric car

[Giddo]

Bump. Speed isn't everything. This car also has class and finesse.

Jeremy clarkson on Top Gear took it from London to the south of France and beat 2 guys that took the high speed train? So the speed is a given, but look at the shape and beauty of the car, I love it!

I read about it in this month's Wired magazine. Check out http://www.italdesign.it
It's only a concept car, but sounds promising for the future.

[TBone4Eva]

That's pretty cool, but I don't like the idea of the fuel tank being right behind the driver's seat though!

[ogarchamplin]

This is all i would need

Fuel tanks very rarely break open these days with the type of plastics that they use. Besides, if you're buying a car that fast you'll be prepared to take a few risks anyway ;)

I'm having a little bit of trouble with these american cars, I must say though the blue Ford mustang that got totalled in Wrong turn came in my top 10.

It would DEFINITELY be a new Bentley Arnage. 6.75 liter twin turbo V8 and more class than you could ever ask for.

It's be a truck though, I would say a Hummer but my uncle already got one of those. Perhaps an Escalade...never put much thought into it.

My Mazda Millenia is fine too, though. I Miss the Silverado.

[Reinier]

There's a Dutch (yes) company that makes custom, high performance, high comfort, high class automobiles that you can just tell them to do anything.

It's really very much like the Orange County Choppers workshop except it's for cars and they are snobs instead of rednecks.

One guy wanted his dashboard to look like the cockpit of a Joint Strike Fighter Jet and they did it. They are crazy.

One of their cars will run you about 400 k dollars.
The company and their car is called "Spijker" or "Spyker"
Means "nail" in Dutch.

These things perform like a Ferrari, sit you like a Bentley, and look classy while they're at it, instead of tacky. I suppose they really are quite ultimate.

2nd pic is the 04 Rubi I traded the 99 in for. (Rubi had 2014 miles on it at the bottom of that hill. One of the toughest hills at a park I go too. All signs say possible body damage and I have personally seen 6 rigs roll over.)
