What's your dream car?

[Tennessee Racing]

I'm not into those Honda's that people under 25 seems to love so much. I love me some good old American muscle cars!

You have good taste. With the exception of wheels and tires this one is a twin to the one I bought after getting out of the service in '69. Wish i still had it today.

Got a gold one of these parked in the driveway right now. If it gets better than this, I don't wanna know about it.

1963 Split-window Corvette...

I just saw one of those on "Appraise My Car" a few weeks ago. If I recall correctly it had about 12,000 original miles on it. The one they had on was all original, including the paint. They appraised it at about $125,000.

This is what they had to say about it...

1963 Corvette Split-Window Coupe:

Chevrolet introduced the first major revision to the Corvette in 1963 via the split-window coupe, featuring a distinctive bar halving the rear window. This was, surprisingly, not fully accepted by Corvette buyers, causing some of them to remove the bar, significantly decreasing the current value of their cars. This is one of only two cars that attract a higher purchase price for the coupe version than the convertible, the other being the Mercedes-Benz 300SL. ’63 also brought an independent rear suspension and fuel-injection to the Corvette, and holds the distinction of being the only year to feature non-functioning hood vents. The Corvette’s powerful V8 was able to carry its nearly-3000 lbs from zero to 60 mph in less than six seconds and cover the quarter mile in just under 15 seconds.

With over 10,000 built at a base price of $4,257, this has proved to be one of the greatest automotive investments in history with current values soaring well over $125,000 and earning this car an “A” on the Sports Car Market Collectability Scale. Our car is all-original, including the paint. While it does show wear in some spots, this is an excellent example of 1963 Corvette coupes.

While I really like several cars, like a 69-70 Chevelle, 'Cuda, etc. I'd have to say my dream car is kind of a tie depending on the day. It's either a Ferrari Testarossa or an Olds 442.

I forgot one.

Dream car if Ford ever starts selling them in the US:

Ford Focus RS - Best FWD car ever made.
350 HP engine
0-60 in 5.4 seconds
Top speed of 165 MPH

 

[SST55]

B-1,
My votes for the Olds. Friend had a Hurst Olds 442, as we say here, wicked,wicked double wicked fast for a big'un.

Might be fast, but that is, IMO, one uglycar.

It's not a 10 in the looks department, but then again it's designed for a European market. I bet they'd lose the Euro style rims for the US market.

But you haven't seen ugly until you've seen a Spyker C8.

Yes, those are chrome air in-takes. It gets even worse when you open the door.

If you think a chrome dashboard is a good idea, wait until the sunlight hits it. The shifter has some kind of metal bar going directly through it, and the quilted pattern leather interitor looks like an old lady's hand bag. Then there's the boat like wheel.

But if that's not ugly enough for you can also get the interior in neon orange.

Foehammer...

I kinds like the looks of that car on the outside, but that has to be the ugliest interior since the old Volare wagons I remember as a kid. Holy crap those things made me car sick and nothing else ever did.
