What is your Dream Car?

1934 ford roadster
something like this

 

Stutz Bearcat

 

I don't have a specific dream car per se; I do have a short list of cars I wouldn't mind having if money was plentifully plentiful.

Maybe a classic Duesenberg, a straight eight convertible.
Dodge Challenger convertible, '70 or '71, factory 440 package.
Stingray (Corvette) convertible, early sixties (I'd need to research exactly which year I preferred).
Mercedes Benz 230SL, early to mid '60s (again research required). The 230SL was a relatively small car that was fun to drive (it eventually evolved into the larger, bulkier, & thirstier models).

 

The Oatmeal does a great review of the Model S.
My favorite line is "It handles like a Ferrari that got porked by a luck dragon."

comfortably seats five and hauls all of their gear
yes please

 

as a kid, I adored the Mustang when it came out. Always thought I would have one when I grew up. But so far that's just not happening - too many other priorities, and they have lost their edge - kind of a common type of vehicle now.

Then I got to drive my mother's car through high school. Looked exactly like this: ( a 1972 model)




It was fun, and even at our 25th reunion, folks were asking if I still had that car...


But the one that I always wanted, and still consider my dream car is the Triumph TR6. I just love the roadster look, the size of the wheels, the stance. I understand that you needed to have your tool box handy if you went for a drive, but, i still love that car.

 

1966 Ferrari 330 P4............!!!!! xoxoxoo

 

I really would love to find an A100 Dodge to work on. Such a cool vehicle and so much you can do.

 

This is a FERRARI Dino just sold on B A T for $360,000 In the late 70's I almost bought one, they were about $25,000 used

 

I posted in 2011 it seems...
Here was my speedster..
I paid 8k for it. When mom died I just had too much stuff to deal with so I sold it, got 7.5 k for this vw based intermeccanica speedster after 6 years of daily driving. Sold to a guy who restores 911's no regrets, he was a cool guy and made that solid offer for a car with seized brakes and hadn't been driving in several years. Solid car though, doors shut perfect. Perfect (imho) cornfield fade on the red gel coat. Lots of parts are actual porsche replacement parts..

My other dream car I mentioned was a vanagon truck.
And the EZ30R subaru flat six I swapped into it


The engine swap is cool but complicated. I am now thinking of going to a vw 1.8t again.

 

'67 through '69 Camaro.

Is that a Ferrari 330?
If so those are considered one of the most beautiful race cars ever..

 

a circa 1973 - 4 ish Triumph TR6. Convertible. I would love to drive that along a country road.

 

in 1984 I was working for a guy who lived in White Rock ( a town just south of Vancouver - very close to the our border with the US) who had a blue Intermeccanica. It looked pretty much like your picture. He said it was a company that he had interests in (not sure if it was because him being a stock broker meant that he was a shareholder, or that he just like their cars) and that they made these Porsche replicas. It was a beaut. But he never let me drive it. He did let me drive his Mazda pickup truck tho, so that was something...
