Default Dream car

have to say my dream car is the SL55 AMG MERC. got a clip of Jeremy taking his around the air field and it is a hot car. roof up it still looks good but when it is down i just have to have one. 5.5litre v8 supercharged engine and enough grunt to keep a lot of other cars honest in a straight line shootout. i know it is not the fastest but has got to be one of the best looking around at the moment. what is everyone elses dream car?

any car thats better than the minivan i am currently stuck in :roll:

seriously though, i would love to get my hands on any BMW M car. i don't care if it's a 3, 5, or 6 but if i could afford a 350Z and a turbo kit... i'd get in trouble with that..

i love too many cars to just pic one...
CGT, Enzo, FGT, STi, RS4, Z06 to name a few...

as far as realistic goals for the near future would be a C4 ZR-1, but more likely a LT-1, but LT-4 perfered, or a Subie WRX... i love that quarky car

Well I think that my drem car is obvious .... a Honda Civic .... lol j/k

I really wish I had the money to afford the SLR, but unfortunately I don't, so all I can do is dream about it.

Sure the sl55 is a nice car, but defenetly not a dream one. Sure it has plenty of power to make you go side to side to a ferrari 360 on a straight line, but cornering and braking are horrible (reviews said lack of felling).
My dream car is a lambo murcielago 40th anniversary edition. 8)

Orazio Satta Puliga, one of the most important figures in Italian motorcar history to say:
"Alfa is a unique way of living and feeling a car. There is no definition that explains what Alfa really is. You can compare it with those irrational emotions, that sometimes have a human spirit, for which it is impossible to find a logical explanation. We are in the domain of feelings, passion of things that are closer to a man's heart than his brain."

I'm only posting here 'cause AL123 told me to!!

Not really. Dream car would have to be the F1. But a real world dream car? I'm fair happy where I am, thanks very much. 8) [/img]
