Now realistically, what is your "dream car"? A car that one do you believe you could really have?

Me, i would like the Lotus Exige S. Nastiest little 4 banger around IMO. They can be had for around $35-$40k used right now, and i plan to buy one when i pay off the Z. 0-60 in 4.1 seconds and it only has 220 HP! Not to mention the amazing agility. I need to go drive one of these.... actually i probably should wait!

Other than that i would like an R34 or just to put an RB26 or even better an RB28 in the 350Z.

My dream car was actually the 350Z. But now that I have that, well, I have always wanted and R32. I really like the way those look.

I've been hearing and reading about rumors about Nissan bringing back the 240sx, if that were to come true, then I would get that.

well since they are stepping the Z up to the 370Z which is supposed to have 350hp or better, maybe they should remake the 240.... have a rear drive I4 back out there that can roll with the S2K.... if it turns out looking like a cross between and A/C and an S2K it would be sweet...

They are remaking something like you want, and it's rumored to b the replacement for the Silvia. Artists rendering thingy:There's some photochops and supposedly a "leaked" picture from Nissan, but they look pretty much like this save a different grill design or little tweaks, but you get the picture.

Supposed to be based on the FM platform and at least feature a 200+ hp turbocharged 2.0L I4. (supposedly an engine from the renault megane F1 team R26 car with 230 hp). It's supposed to go up against that compact rwd joint toyota/ suby car coming out soon.Don't you guys read Car and Driver or Road and Track or Automobile or any automotive news?

That being said my dream car which I will own...among others... is either a '67 Camaro Z28 ( the real racing ones) or a '69 Yenko Camaro.

I've seen the Carerra GT in person, it's an amazing piece of machinery, and near it was a new Ford GT, and I gotta say, the GT looks like well a ford sitting next to the Carerra GT, miles apart in build quality, and I just saw a Veyron in person, and I have to admit it made me weak in the knees to stand close to it, PURE SEX

Also the 0-100 is a huge difference.Comparing 8.4 and 13.4... not even a race.

But I do believe the lotus is an amazing car and I would definitely love to own one. For me it would have to be 911 GT3 RS

As for one thats affordable maybe a Cayman

my dream car was always the Z since i walked past an orange convertible with orange leather seats. I fell in love but that seem soon died when i learned what money was. Now, im buying a used which is all i can afford. My dead car would be a nismo Z BRAND SPANKING NEW. I want to break in engine, the new car smell, and to call that **** mine!!!

Definitely the Konegsigg CCX..... they recently came out with a CCX-R that is tuned on ethonal. Makes 1170 (ish).... Now possibly faster than the 16.4 Veyron and already quicker on the track (Top Gears Fastest).....

Both cars are less likely to be owned than to be struck by lightning. Millions for one of them

The Veyron peaking at 1001 HP and 253 mph - the CCX at 860(ish) and the CCX-R upwards of 1100. Both multi forced, CCX twin Superchargers, and the Veyron with 16 cylinders & 4 turbochargers. Nasty Nasty Nasty Cars. But this thread was meant to be realistic.... And kinda surprised no one said anything about the Maybach $10 million car... If i was wealthy enough i would rock a maybach 62 as my daily driven in!!!

I have a good friend who just purchased a new Exige S (green). He'splanning to bring it to the track this fall. .

If we're talking realistic priced cars, for me it would be a BMW E30 M3 set up for the track. IF we're talking unlmited budget, it would be a Ferrari 330P4 or perhaps a Lotus 72 for the track and a Ferrari 275 GTS 4 NART for the street.

I do have to agree with most of you, that my dream car was a Z in high school, so in a way i am living the dream. Definitely the rarest car in my part of town and i am always getting complements - i never see other Z's or even G coupes where i live... now not that far from home i can see anything from Lambo's to 500 hp civics, on the weekends.

I have wanted a BMW M-Coupe since they came out with the new ones in 2006 or 2007. Those are some straight up sexy cars

Technically the Z4m is the M coupe as it no longer has the name Z4. Same with the previous Z3m was the M coupe....which I think is sex on wheels.

Meh at least when it came out it was called the M coupe or M roadster. Now on BMW's site they have it listed as Z4M, but no where on any picture does it have the Z4 on the car.....it's just a$$loads of M badges.

Bmw definitely makes some amazing cars. I love the M3 and also the new 1 series is pretty clean.
