Dodge Viper or Mitsubishi 3000GT.
Either one would kill me, both financially and literally.
Lambo Diablo in that Azure Blue.

Well,
I wouldn't be able to fit my tub-as* in one. However, I would love to have a 1986 25th aniversary Red Lamborghini Countach.

Hehehe.... Ferrari F50!! <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
a jet black, porsche eating, Nissan Skyline R34 GTR V-Spec.
Toyota Celica 190 with all the trimmings...And for £3 extra a month I can have one for a company car.
With baby on the way, It will have to be a passat or mondeo.
Infact I'm gonna do a post along these lines right now.
Dark red Corvette ZR-1, or maybe a McLaren F1!
My current favorite. :-)

if you're into minis - check out www.miniclassic.co.uk - it's an online miniclub with members from all round the world which a mate of mine owns and runs.
My favourites? I currently own a Lancia Delta Integrale - old, but with 4wd, a turbo and fantastic handling has to be good! it'll even have a ferrari 348 to 60mph - but you need a paddle clutch!
I'd love a Mitsi Evo VI, or a Skyline GTR 34 VSpec, or Maclaren F1 or one of the newer Bristol supercars.
The Mitisi 3000GT is too tame - 4WD and 4W steer with electronic everything, I want a car that involves - it's the same with the Honda NSX which is a car even your granny could drive fast.
TVRs are always nice, but the one that does it for me has to be is the Cizetta Moroder V16 (the car featured in Michael Jackson's Moonwalker)
My favorites vehicles
67' Shelby Cobra with 427 side oiler (amenities? who needs 'em)
65' Mustang Convertable K code (I owned a 65 coupe with the A code 289)
88' Porshe 911 Turbo (I always like the 88)
I can't believe no one has said it... My favorite is the Mclaren F1. 220 on the speedometer... 0-60 in 4.2... 1st gear is good for 72 mph... Only 100 made and the cheapest you'll find one.. used.. is $1,000,000 but well worth the money.

Porsche 959 or 550 Spyder(James Dean's car)
http://www.bmw.com/bmwe/products/aut...erk_mov_01.jpg This is what I want.
gotta be the Nissan NSX:
NSX
Can I say you read my mind. I love the DB-7!!! Wow. I saw one a couple years ago, and it screams money, class and refinement. It was beautiful even in metallic baby-blue with tan leather interior. Ever since then I've wanted one, but maintenance is expensive. It's not like you can drive to your local mechanic or anything.Quote:

Mine would be my hot wheels
Just kidding, My dream car would be a 1969 red convertable Ford Mustang
Around here an exotic car is one that doesn't have bondo on the body or a cracked windshield.
Can I hear an AMEN from my amen corner - Rad Dreamer, Ghostfleet, Cobra?
Yep, but you forgot wheels. It's gotta have wheels too. If it's sitting up on cinder blocks in your front yard, it doesn't count. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">Quote:

The car I'd absolutely love to have is a Deusenburg. They cost around $100,000 back in the 30's! In today's dollars, that's like several million bucks!
They had one version that could do 90 in first gear!
http://www.musclecars.net/CarCruises...Deusenburg.jpg
I know it's kinda cliche, but one passed me on the highway the other day and I felt like I really need one. It was a silver Porsche Boxter and it sounded really nice. It passed me while I was going about 80 like I was sitting still. It had the top down and was beautiful. It made me want to put the top down on my 96 Cavilier, but all of my trash would have flown out, and it still wouldn't have satisfied me.
Ok, it's not exactly a car, but I love the Hummer.

I'm gonna have to go with Solid Cobra on this one...DOGDE VIPER ALL THE WAY!!!! you just can't say no to a V-10 and 500hp!

Sometimes telling the truth seems like your bragging, but I promise this, my father works for Aston Martin in northampton, uk. I did get a lot of rides in various cars over the years. What totally amazed me was the interiors of these works of art, I am talking feet disapearing in the carpet due to the softness, wood that is so reflective, you can use it as a mirror. A truelly amazing car manufacturer. But, saying that, my car is the McLaren F1. Go DC.

I'd just have to get a datsun or maybe a Russian Lada.............heheheh
No seriously I have always wanted a BMW convertible it's not the most exotic or expensive but its just nice and suits me............and I figure....maybe....just maybe....one day.....in the distant future....I may be able to afford one... <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0">
Ditto, when I'll be rich and famous. The point is, I don't know when it'll be the time!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">Quote:

lambourghini countach!
man that rocks! <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
Of the cars designed for speed and not luxury, I'd have to say the ItalDesign Scighera. Not only does it have some kick-*** specs (400hp V-6, 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, top speed 209 mph), and not only does look sweet, but I just love the sound of the name.

Don't ask me - I'm still trying to put a turbo on my 1978 850cc Reliant Robin Reliant motors homepage
Now if you want 0-60, get a Ford RS500 (road-going group B car) 3.9secs I think
Porsche 356 Spyder, Jaguar XKE (classic design and beauty), Ferrari 550 Maranello, Pantera, 67 Mustang GT 350 Shelby, Shelby Cobra, 01 Porsche 911 Turbo, Maclaren F1, Lamborgini S4 (cannot remember if that is right, but the Lam 4x4).
