    Yes we all want Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Bentley's, etc...but realistically, we're not going to win the lottery. Last year I was about twenty minutes too late from buying the car of my dreams.

    A 1963 Ford Thunderbird....mint condition. Old lady selling it on Craigslist for $1500. I got there as it was being loaded on a hauler.

    I still get online from time to time and see what's being sold locally, and one day I'll find what I want. It's reasonable, will take a little TLC and some investment, but it's within my budget.

    I never figured out how to add pictures, but I can describe my dream cars.

    A 2001 to 2004, 4-door, Toyota Tacoma, SAS (single axle swapped), red, with an exoskeleton and a TRD supercharger.
    There is more to add to that, but I'll stop there.

    And for a car.... I'll take a boosted Toyota Supra (I'm open to a few different years and colors) and pick and choose all the mods I want.

    That's the E30 chassis 3-series, and it produced one of the coolest little sports cars ever. The original E30 M3

    Hard to be affordable though, no financing to be had on one of these $30K-$40K (in good condition) rare birds. Many people say that BMW has never produced a better or more pure street car since this one in 1988. I am one of these people.

    Well they might be bit more affordable back here in Europe :smile: But haven't really been following the prices too closely lately.

    Noooooooo, this car is worth ten times that. The one I missed out on needed no chrome, now windows, no body work, and was running. It's rare to find a car in that good condition for that price.

    2002 Honda S2000. I actually owned one for a few years; it was the best car I ever had by a pretty fair margin. There were (and probably still are) lots of them on the used market with low mileage, and there's nothing like a convertible to make you feel good about your commute.

    Yeah, there were VERY few imported into the US, and I think half of those that are here were grey-marketed (imported and converted to US-spec individually) Just 5115 officially sold here, and of course for a near 30 year old car, fewer left with parts as rare as hen's teeth.

    I bought mine a year and a half ago when I hit my weight loss goal.

    2013 Mustang GT Premium in Grabber Blue, with the track pack option and 6-speed manual. I've done a bunch of cosmetic mods, new rims and tires, bigger throttle body and Borla S-Type exhaust so far. More is coming this spring.

    The car is a blast to drive with a 420hp 5.0l v8, 3.73 gears and 6-speed! Fastest thing I have ever owned by far, and the sounds it makes are seriously addictive!

    This is the day I picked it up:

    This is what it looks like at the moment:

    I have this and I love it. Was always my dream car as a young lad growing up in the UK. Now I am in New England I had to have one.

    Buick Enclave is what my wife drives, not a patch on my truck, but actually a really good car.

    Loving the older Ford trucks.

    And eventually, a pre-80s Firebird, with the bird on the hood. And pack of cigs in my sleeve.

    A Harley-Davidson.

    Why yes, I'll take one of those. I'm thinking this time next year I'll be riding around on a Fat Boy...
