What is your dream car (maybe you already have it)? Or your favorite make of car?
For me, I’m a big GM fan so I’ll go with a corvette (even if a few years ago I bought the next best thing see avatar). But for my every day live, i have a 03 ford taurus sel.

I'm not with cars, since even my...dreamed money convert to dream snakes :p
In other words, i prefer spending my money on herps instead of cars.

Het, thats really funny, my favorite car has always been, since I could remember, the '57 Chevy Belair 2 door, original baby blue on white.

My dream car is a 2002 dodge viper rt/10. Since i was about 8 i have LOVED this car soo much..i would take it over a ferrari! Yes i know im insane but i would.. I just love the car so much
I will take a Mclarin F1 but I dont have 1 000 000$ so i will have to settle for an 89 s15 jimmy hope fully getting a hart transplant soon to a fuil injected 350

i know nothing whatsoever about cars, i LOVE THIS (http://www.pistonheads.com/classifiedpics/11022-1.jpg ) 76 lotus esprit, its just so ... 70's and retro!! i do like the look of most esprit's but i doubt id be able to afford one....
i probably bad taste in cars, and not everyone thinks theyre gorgeous, but im a sucker for 70's/80's stuff, they were so futuristic back then!
i would LOVE a ford capri, any model, either in red or black:) i really like them......mmmmmm.....preferebly like this one but i would probably end up with just your basic run down rusty capri.... and i will probably be to lazy to fix it up!

Subie WRX Sti. Ultimate rice rocket. Not really a dream car but It's the car I'd most want to get right now.

Mine would be a dart 638 ci engine Blown open headers running on alchohol and soo many other mods it would kill me list them all crammed in a grumman mail truck on a tuber it would be uncontrolable and would lift the front end like no tommorow but it would be one hell of a beast

im not sure what car i would get it if could buy any car regardless of the price, but i love the Lotus Elise and the new mazda RX-8 and so many other cars that its too hard to choose what i would realistically buy...if i had to buy a nice small car i would probably stick with a civic since they are nice and reliable (moms got one 10 years old) ..I also like my dad Pontiac Vibe, runs so nice and smooth.
I really like the new Mini Coopers as well.

i have a video of a road maclarin going 391 km/h on a track..it has crazy acceleration even once it was above 200, the guy was saying the intervals and would say "250" then like 2 seconds later "280", "310"
i also love the mid chassis driving position

I was fortunate enough to take a Lamborghini Diablo VTT for a spin for about an hour a couple years ago....i was sold on the power of that car..cant see much need for more..so id have to say thats my dream car. Growing up i always wanted a General Lee..aka 68/69 dodge charger..when i found one for sale many many moons ago i jumped at the chance. Ive had it over 10 years now and i dont plan on ever letting her go. There is just something about a big block that no other engine will ever compare to.

08-27-03, 05:07 PM
Do I have to choose just one?
Probably Ferrari 550, or a Viper.
Realistic dream car would be an '04 VW Golf R32. Now these cars are SWEEEEEEET Or an Audi S4. I love VW. I currently drive a '92 Jetta that just hit 309000 kms the other day. Still runs great!

Thanks Brandon, but I miss the old TransAms (like yours), I mean before we could modify the engine now I have to go to my dealer just for an oil change. Last year my dealer put the wrong oil filter on it (they put the one for the standard V8) it exploded on the 401 (the oil filter) what a mess. At least I didn’t have to pay the repairs.
Anyway, it still a good car to bad they don’t make them anymore
Brandon What engine is in your baby? did you modify it?
This is my dream car...

Linds the only sad thing is after one race that rally car is beaten to near death. My fav is the ford rs200 naturally aspired at 500 hp in race spec's from a cosworth 1.8 L engine only 200 were built. amazing cars gotta love the old Group B racers

08-27-03, 07:50 PM
My dream car would be a 2002 cadillac ext on 24 inch spinning rims. Probably if I had to choose from an old car it would have to be a 1949 chevy truck.

pheh!!! Under achievers! All of ya!
SP Engineering Supra7. The beauty of an RX7 with the reliability of one of the most over built engines to come to american. 2JZE twin turbo supra engine

Two porsche motors in the back of a VolkswagEn sounds impossible. There would be no room for the transmission!
Putting Porsche motors in bugs is stupid cause you can build VW motors that are faster and more reliable than Porsche motors, you want a porsche motor, buy a Porsche! LOL
Mine's a Landrover Defender 110, four doors and a hard top equipped with a Raised Air Intake (snorkel), Hinged Lamp Guards, Protection Bars, and a winch....

For those that are wondering what my school bus looks like, here's a pic :D
<img src="http://freespace.virgin.net/paul.sandever/pictures/BCambridge3.jpg">
The only difference between this and the one I want is that this is the Pick-up model, and I want the Hard Top model ;).
my favorite cars are RX-7's rotary rules dream car would be a 95 twin turbo RX-7 or 95 20-B coversion
I already drive something similar to what i want. I've been driving a dodge ram charger to work and around town, we save the minivan for long trips. I would love to have a diesel full size (k series) jimmy or blazer with the different tops (and AC of course).
