TVR Tuscan (if I can fit in it!)

If not a Porker of some description me thinks.

Although the idea of a classic does appeal (Sunbeam Tiger/Alpine probably)

Currently have WRX wagon, and no plans to change.
The wife's car is due for a change though. Test drove the smart roadster yesterday, and couldn't stop laughing. Only 80bhp, but weighs about as much as a crate of lager, feels like you're thrashing it, look at speedo and only doing 40. Not in the same league as all the supercars mentioned above, but as a hoot to drive around town....
May also be license friendly

After driving Pbone's R34 Skyline I would love one of those, or a Aston Martin Vanquish or DB9

We are a one car family so the scoob (my third from new) satisfies all my needs however, as I need 4 doors and a reasonable boot the real world choices for 2007 are:

Audi RS6

M5

Mercedes E55 AMG

All sub 5 seconds

What would you choose?

Dream car, or actual car that you can afford and "most" probably going to get?

At the mo i have the scoob and the mr 340, my next car will probably be the evo x and then after that by the time im 35, 30 at the mo, with out a doubt a convertable ferrari 355 spider. Hope to be in a situation by the time the 10 comes out (mid 2007) i can skip it and get 355, fingers crossed.

Dream car

enzo
lambo
etc
etc

its hard to know isnt it, ive a great 98 STi Type R V4 which i love and has a few nice mods on her IE:full exhaust and andy f mapped apexi ecu etc but i am thinking of changing, not becuase im not happy with it, just because i would like to own as many cars as possible before i hit 30 and get into the big marriage buzz and all that crap! i am 22yrs old, previous cars are

1999 1.4 Hatch Honda Civic
1998 1.8 Type R Integra
2000 2.0 Toyota Altezza RS200
current=1998 2.0 STi Type R

honestly dont know what to get next, inurance is not a problem but i am honestly still thinking about getting a nice clean 1996 twin turbo supra, i know it wont be as quick as the scoob ( 0-60 anyway ) but they look great and can take very high power while maintaining reliabilty. what are your thoughts on this?? supras very rare here and have a good ***** factor!lol

Last of the Audi RS6 Avant special editions.

The noise from one of these monsters is just delightful

Realistically I’ll be stuck with my WRX wagon for a few years to come, so a new car is way off. I just can’t wait for the 3 year warranty to pass so I can de-cat and re-map her

Ok.... if it's got to be jap then I'll settle for an Evo 8 MR FQ330 or similar.

However, I'm going to wait for the 'Evo 10 MR FQ420 Sport Wagon' to make it's appearance. Now that would be a stunningly fast/practical car

And no I don't want a Gallant.
