My personal dream car- http://www.racerelated.com/truck.htm
the guy that owns that truck lives across the street from my best friend. Its absolutely amazing.
p.s. (and yes, he drives it every day, except when he is working on it, then his "second car" is an S2000)

I'd kill somebody to have one of those new gt40's. Or the saleen s7.
but for now I wanna get an engine and transmission, and fix up this monster: http://www.geocities.com/corn322/kitcar

umm i dont know if any of you people play video games especially ps2 but umm play gran turismo 3 and go to the car dealer , click on japan and go all the way to the end with the grape looking logo called tommy kaira. theres a car there damn i forgot the name but lets just say its sweet with 500+ horses to the wheels , rear wheel drive , mclaren f1 styling and 50/50 weight distribution. sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. oh yeah and the car does actually exist although it is extremely rare.
After the 68' Camaro...or maybe with it 
I would like a 1964 Ferrari 500 Superfast: http://www.ferrariforum.net/mo...id=73They arent the most gorgeous thing out there...but 400hp out of a NA 5 liter, 174mph top speed, and built in 1964 is just amazing.

Well, I dunno if I'd consider a car I already have a dream car, but here are mine:
Lamborghini Miura Ferrari 330P4Jaguar XJ220 (V-12)McLaren F1Ferrari 275 GTB4 NART SpyderShelby 427 Cobra (Competition- and original)
The only Japanese car I had thought of was the Toyota 2000GT. I never thought Nissan made dream cars, just great, attainable cars.

I actually saw one of those. Very pretty cars, but big and heavy. My father owned a 1964 330 America for many years (ferrariforum shows them as 1963, but they're actually 1964 cars with the 1963 250GT 2+2 bodies. I wish he had never sold it....

Koenigsegg... EVO magazine test drove this monster IN THE SNOW! And, the owner/founder of Koenigsegg wrote a letter to EVO calling BS on Gordon Murray's(creator of the McLaren F1) comments about how the top speed mark is no longer important, and offering him a test ride in the world's fastest production car. As of press time, he was still in the calculation phase of working to beat the McLaren F1's top speed mark. I find it amusing that the guy who set out to take the top speed crown, now that it's about to be taken from him, is downplaying the importance of it. It's like he won first so now the game is over and it doesn't matter who wins. Gordon Murray sounds like a bitter old man who's about to lose the only fame he ever had.
PS: anybody here ever read test drive articles on the McLaren? "Brakes feel old and wooden, steering is dodgy at best, it's clear this car was meant to go fast in a straight line"

EVO magazine contributors/test drivers wrote that. People tend to jump on the bandwagon when they hear about insanely fast cars that cost up to $1 million. They hoot and hollar and praise huge power figures and sleek aerodynamics and declare "this is the best car ever". This is clearly the case with the McLaren F1. The car is ten years old. It is indeed an amazingly fast car, but automotive technology has grown by leaps and bounds in the last decade or so.
Read EVO issue #52, February '03, and notice the interview with Gordon Murray and how he still holds on to the notion that his car will never be bettered, that his ideas and ideals for what a car should be and what it should do are better than anybody else's. He speaks of how the F1 is a proper road car, that the new supercars being made today are not meant for the road and will never match his car because they employ turbocharging, ABS, power steering, and power brakes, and some of them use AWD. Last time i checked, these systems proved reliable, usefull, and somewhat vital to "road driving" as he calls it. Today's technology has passed Gordon Murray up, and he's pissed off that companies can now build faster cars that are safer, more agile, more user friendly, and very tame for everyday "road use". Poor fella, his car is no longer king of the hill. Maybe his mullet had something to do with his demise...after all, mullets are out of style too.

Exar-Kun---twin turbo ferrari 360 modena? They came stock n/a...would this twin turbo modification be one of your own?
That subaru with 280 hp weighing 3800 lbs would never find its way to 60 in 4.6 seconds...the new WRX sti weighing 3160 lbs and having 300 hp only does 4.9 or 4.8....
For me, it's always been the Porsche 911 twin turbo, followed by the Ferrari F40, the Ferrari F50, the Ferrari F355 (so so gorgeous), and we'll throw the Saleen S7 in there because it's supposed to be quicker than the McLaren F1...
