First off. I'm under the influence.

Here goes.

Just been watching a Shelby Daytona Coupe. WOW
AC Cobra. One good looking car.
Practically any TVR (As a second car only)
Latest Porsche 911 turbo. (Saw a new Carrera [you know, the white ones with red decals] the other day. Oh My God. How stunning?)
(From schoolboy days) The Ferrari from 'Magnum PI' "Too pi55ed to recall it's model name."
But realistically, A spec C. So long as that ridiculous (Max Power) touring car spoiler is changed.


Anyhow chaps. What's in your fantasy garage?

Ooh what a good thread.
Hmmm firstly it would be a Lamborghini Murcealaigo coz it looks awesome, a Hummer H2 coz nobody would dare cut you up a Ducati 999 and finally a Impreza Spec C.

WRX - The Ford. Don't quite see it myself. Almost like "The Car" from same titled film but with Mini lights.

Bugatti - Mmm. But me thinks I have seen that grille on the concept Subaru B11S. Vagina grille anybody?

PS, does anyone else think the Subaru concept name is too much like (gulp) *****?

What's that I hear calling? Oh, it's my bed. Good night all.

A "blower" Bentley
Mercedes Benz W125 Streamliner
"Shark nose" Ferrari 156 F1 (can this be a "fact that there are none in existence no object" thing as well?)
Some sort of V12 Ferrari
Definitely a 246 Dino
Probably need some sort of classic Alfa too
Lancia Stratos
Lamborghini LM002 for off-road use

Audi RS4 OR RS6 maybe. Something satisfying about looking half sensible and having 450hp hiding under the bonnet.

Cool

Probably would like the following;

for speed; Porsche 959 (silver) / (or 911 RUF yellow)
for posh; Ferarri BB512i (yes, old but I like it)
for feel good; De Thomaso Pantera GTS (Poor mans countach, btw)
for show off; Ford GT90 (the GT40 brought up to date)
for run-around; My WRX Type R Coupe V-Ltd (cos it's my 1st scooby)
for rough stuff; A really rough & ready ute

Where does the F40 fit it; spare car of course !
Koenig (sp) tuned, of course !!
Or maybe the Porsche Carrera GT.

Always fancied a Lotus Esprit Turbo (mark 1) when I was at school.
IIRC, you could get a new one for about GBP 18,000.
How things move on, eh.

- AC Cobra
- Humvee (original in desert paint - not hideous 'roadgoing'version)
- "Miller" Minor : blueprinted version of my first car
