If you had your choice of cars ?

grunau_baby · Jan 20, 2010

Should money be no objective, there´s no doubt about the choice:

Bjoern · Jan 21, 2010

You guys take the cars, I'll take the babes. :d

Dream car? Too many.

Realistic option for kind of a dream car:

A Ford Puma? !!!!!!!! **shudder**
That car (along with the Ford Probe) were some of the greatest mechanical faeces aver produced by the Ford Mo. Co. :icon_lol:

Give me a Sierra Cossie (more affordable) or Escort Cossie (a little less affordable) any day! :bump:

This little Chevy is just too cool!
This car was built by N2A motors (No Two Alike?).
The company is planning a production run
Of about 100 vehicles..It sits on a Corvette C6 chassis,
Front styled like a 57 Chevy, side like a 58, rear like a 59.

Hence the designation "789."

Of all 90 cars, the only one that has any aesthetics is the Lotusd Elise. It reeks of sexy. But sadly, even it is a mechanical nightmare, not worthy of the price of entry.

The only truly practical car is the Nissan Leaf. Has the entire world gone a Clockwork Orange. What is with the up-swept rear windows on all the hatchbacks these days! The damn things are a blind spot.

Not one Honda among the lot, guess they have it all sorted already.

Well, from an automobile point of view it isn't that bad of a ride, however I don't know about its durability. I doubt that it's as bad as a baguette or pizza though.

:d

If it's for durability nothing beats a car from Nippon.

cheezyflier · Jan 21, 2010

although it's alot more mudane that what was pictured in the link, if i was to be more realistic, i would like to try one of these:

Hmm...I dunno. The only Puma I ever "had a go of" was the 1.7lt Racing special. The old skool Peugeot 205GTi (1.9lt) and Peugeot 106 GTi (1.6lt) were streets ahead of it in handling however imho.
A close relative bought a brand new FIAT Seicento Sporting (Sporting?...with only an 1100cc engine!!!? :icon_lol:

) when they were launched and let me borrow it for a day. It was without doubt one of the best "fun" cars I've ever driven (apart from the classic Italian bunched up and uncomfortably offset pedals).
The Japanese cars are probably the most reliable....but are a bit "soulless" in my opinion. I've only ever owned German Panzerwagons ,myself! :icon29:

Ouch Kabibbles! Thats harsh!

There are some awesome Jap cars out there. I own one presently and its as nice as a Bimmer as far as I am concerned. Its a classic Q-45 and she is a true lady.

Oh, by the way, they dont really have souls.. They are not sentient beings, but we sure love to think they do. :d

Bill

Wing_Z · Jan 21, 2010

Yeah yeah, but some cars do have more "soul" than others!
I just can't stop scrolling up to that "789" Chevy.
"Bling" does not even approach what this car has...

Only my opinion,Bill...but I prefer sourkraut to rice! :kilroy:

PS. of course cars have a soul. One of the most famous of these was James Dean's "Little B*****d" :isadizzy: :icon_lol:

Ah, who needs handling? I'm not going to race it anyways.

Rationality on wheels. Awesome. Would kill to get my hands on a 1990 Nissan Micra.

I´ll take the Pizza :icon_lol:

Affordability, well, I should have gotten myself a Thesis, prizes are low for used ones, cause too big for "our times" (who cares). But I´d only have one in BiColore then, which is out of reach again...so I allready drive my personal affordable dreamcar anyway, my Musa.

Nice car Alex. I know you love the Italian metals..

I have had my eye on this baby for a while now. I cant believe how gorgeous she looks... Almost like a CLS 550.

I cant seem to post pics on it right now. Its the VW CC. I do not know what they call it in Germany, but the CC over here is pretty new and one sweet looking ride...

57Chevy two Door Hard top, with 327ci/375hp.With a 700r4 transand 3400 stall converter. Best car every made.hehe

Lazerbeak · Jan 22, 2010

Had I my own choice, it'd be either: a Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86, a Suzuki Alto, or Suzuki's Jimny. I wouldn't mind a Honda Inspire either, but it has to be the 2007 UC1 model, it looks the best out of all the Inspire generations.

From the link, I don't know it could change weekly depending on mood.

If I could have any car regardless of cost it would be a 1968 Dodge Dart Hemi Factory Racer.
http://www.oldride.com/classic_cars/904552.html

Slightly more realistic, a '66-'67 Chevy Nova http://www.cars-on-line.com/44635.html

I even love the station wagon model http://www.cars-on-line.com/44306.html

I really prefer pre-1972 cars.
