To me, the ultimate dream car is this thing. Luxury to the max, budget out the window, customized to the last millimeter.
There are so many others that go in my dream collection, much simpler cars like the original Mini, 60's Camaro, an EV swapped Super Beetle, and a late 60's Corvette with a better engine, Caterham 7, Miata.... Yeah, there are a lot.
But the pinnacle is always the Rolls.
I like the starry night headliner
Yes! Such a great idea to make a normally boring part of the car special and pretty and customizable
Edit:
Actually the number 6 the one Jacky Ickx won the '69 LeMans in.
Detachable scooter included
Worth it for the scooter
That scooter is something straight out of cyberpunk
For me it's the Nissan March Super Turbo. I'm a hot hatch fan, and this little car has no business having a turbo or being super charged, yet it has both.
I love a Datsun, same thing lol
Neighbour across the street had one of these on blocks when I was growing up, it's forever seared into my brain as the most beautiful car ever made (sorry Jaguar). I know the engine is garbage but in my dreams I've swapped in a 400-500 hp EV drivetrain
Karmann Ghia, electric conversion.
Vector W8. Only a handful on the planet, sadly.
Never meet your heroes.
1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4. Replaced nearly every part, twice. While selling it the front aero stopped working again.
1961 Lincoln Continental. Every part is unique just enough to be difficult to fix or replace. Lots of oddities related to vacuum.
Photos aren’t mine but are nearly identical. My vr4 had the chrome wheels from a convertible.
1987 Toyota Tercel SR5 Wagon 4x4. 5-speed
I will never forgive Breaking Bad for making this car cost as much as a goddamn Corvette.
I spent untold hours in this thing with high school friends in Massachusetts at the end of obscure dead-end roads tripping my first time on shrooms, mescaline, acid, MDMA, MDA etc. Good times and great memories.
Starrion widebody turbo is my absolute bucket-list car, though a Grand National wouldn’t go amiss, and another Ford Sierra XR4x4 would make me happy
Good taste.
I'm a masochist at heart.
What the heck is this person smuggling in the driver side doors?
East German plastic resin made from Soviet cotton off cuts.
or
I'd love to have a half sized bus, graffiti it out, call it the party bus and just drive people around in it for an hour or so for free. Bet the cops would execute me for that though.
It would be blasting reggae, I'd replace the seats with lazy boys (if I could find a way to make them safe.) And have privacy curtains. It would be the coolest thing for like a week a before impound.
You know, the former is a bit expensive to buy
I prefer to just rent a seat when I need it.
With that rack on the front you don't even need to choose between the two!
The pinnacle of my 'won the lottery' desire from a decade ago was this bus with a livable interior for cross country travel.
I’m a simple guy:
Good taste. Miata Is Always The Answer.
I drive an NA.
Just to mention a few
Lancia 037, preferably with the Martini livery. I am a man doomed to dream, for this will never happen.
Mazda RX-7 FD3S Spirit R Type A
Lotus Exige S 260 Final Edition
Noble M500
One day…
The Niisan Z car, I've wanted one since the 260Z.
I had a Nismo from 2007-2013, absolutely loved the car. IMO the way a performance model should be. The engine was potent enough, and they made the car stiff as hell and so much fun to drive in squiggles. Miss that car, but this is life.
The new Z looks fantastic, but can't put two kids in the back, and I can't get past the whole it's irresponsible to have two cars right now.
Two cars I really wanted at various stages in my life...
1978-9 Trans Am 1993-5 Mazda RX-7
This one, however, did not get away :)
73' Impala 4 door hard top maroon
69 Black Cameo
2006 Rsx type-s
