What is your Dream Car?

Preface: I searched, and while I found threads pertaining to cars that would be your dream "project car" and one relating to your "childhood dream car" I could not find one relating to just the standard "dream car" subject. Meaning a car not for project purposes or whatever (necessarily) but a car you dream of having in its original form or modded, that you would drive every day, ie- not toy project/race/show cars, real cars you would daily drive. And also, your dream "concept" or "prototype" car.


I would, in the interest of making it interesting (for me anyway) like to place some restrictions:

For production car-
Must be new production within the last 10 years
Must be your dream car in stock form, not just heavily modded (ie, [this car] with a [this extreme modification (turbo, S/C, Swap)] doesn't count)


For prototype/concept car-
Must be released within the last 10 years.
Must be your dream car in stock form, not just heavily modded (ie, [this car] with a [this extreme modification (turbo, S/C, Swap)] doesn't count).
Must be atleast within the realm of plausibility for production (be reasonable).


I'll start it off.


Without a doubt.

Production:
BMW M5 Sedan with 7speed SMG

Prototype:
Prodrive P2

I try not to fantasize about $300K Ferraris... just depressing rather than exciting to me. :p
Same here, I could conceivably get an M5 one day, Ferrari's are nice expressions of mechanical know-how but I'm not seduced by them.

My Dream Car is a Ford GT, a car that I have driven and is still a dream car.

A more realistic one would be a Panoz Roadster, another one I have driven. A fun car to toss around.

YOU STOLE MINE!!

:lol:

My dream production car would have to be the new EVO X.

I'm not interested in having a $200k car that I'd be afraid to drive around and really lean on, and I like all the high tech goodies like AWD with the trick center-diff, and boost, and having 4-doors.

I mean, who wants to drive around something that screams "I have a small penis so I make up for it by driving this ĂĽber expensive car!"

1977 Porsche 911 Carrera
anything tuned by RUF
Lotus Super7 replica with a Powerworks-equipped Zetec under the hood
