I've been cruising the car dealerships and ebaymotors lately drooling over the nice cars, saying if only I had the money.

Anyway, I'd like to know, if you were Bill Gates rich, which car/ truck/ whatever, you would buy.

My dreamcar is a '67 GT500 Super Snake. (yes, elenor from gone in 60 seconds, but frankly, ive been in love with that car long before the movie) I would put a 351 v8 in that thing, twin turbo charged, just for poops and giggles.
The thing I love about the car is that it is just dang sexy, it is the best looking car ever made. (In my opinion) plus, unlike many peoples dream cars, such as lambos, bentlys and such, the gt500 is reletively cheep. im sure i could get a good one around 45k.

also, on top of my mustang, I would get a truck. I'd get a F-250 or F-350, for it, I'd get the new 6.7liter diesel [750 footpouds of torque] it would have to be a blue, 4-door FX4.

So, tell me what you would buy, Bentley, Ferrari, Lambo, Pinto?

my dream car? well its cheap thats for sure at <15k

id buy a '69 dodge charger in matt black

i think you should change this thread to muscle cars lol

Nissan Skyline or a TVR Tuscan (raider =P)

lol yeah, i figured most peoples cars would be some expensive supercar.

Go Amerian muscle!!!! (even though you are a heritic and a dodge fan lol)

This body with a completely overhauled chassis/drivetrain/engine/etc. A Chevy smallblock would do nicely; I'd turn her into a modernized luxury grand tourer.

No modification necessary but you'd have to win a few lotteries to even think about owning this beast:

what is that first car? is it an aston? (an no you are wrong, get a small block FORD lol)

Its the Aston Martin DB5 made famous by James Bond:

Aston Martin Vanquish



1970 Boss Mustang



2007 Lotus Elise

A car that's already paid for and low maintenance.

But I already have 3 of those. I want an expensive car!

A Toyota Echo. No, not a Yaris, an Echo. I loved those things :(

Now here's a proper transport:

Why stop at one? I would have several cars if I won the lottery.

I'd have a Bentley, and a Morgan for fun, and a Prius for everyday stuff.

Lotus Exige for fun...



...a Chevelle SS 454 for tradition...



...and an Audi S4 for everyday driving.

Lotus for sure.


Or a Nissan Skyline GTR - those htings are SEXy.

My car is huge. It carries the space shuttle.



I'll take my Escuda for quick trips to the store though.

My car is huge. It carries a foritified cathedral.



I'll take my Salamander for quick trips to the front lines though.

Eheheheh.


Aston Martin DB9. Sex on wheels.



Lamborghini Diablo. Just awesome.



In Oz, you are either Awesome (holden Fan) or you suck horribly (ford supporter). I am awesome

Now here is the real Question on the 427 Cobra
I know the Real answer is both, but Kit Cobra or Real [We had this discussion at work] it came down to

Kit
•You would not want to be killed slowly if you wrecked it.
•You would feel safe to drive it on the streets.
•You could afford the insurance.
•It could have a 454, 460 or Blown 351 under the hood [Seen all three].
•Who would care 9:00 at night on Hollywood Boulevard

The Real
•It a real Cobra

If vehicles in general, this:


If not then maybe Frazzled's second one, but only if it can travel through time.



Other than that, I don't really know. Haven't actually thought about it all that much, a car is a car basically. Although, definitly not something crappy and falling apart.
Or this:

It's scary, because I can inaging some of the douchefags near me doing that =/

Well yea, the time travel part is kind of important.
