Cars you love/admire, but would never own.

Was also thinking a Supra/Soara 1/2JZ.

Love the motivational - so true lol!

Early to mid 70s Porsche 917 LeMans type are my lifelong dream. Awesome car, flat 12 motor 800ish hp. Only thing better than owning one of these would be owning 2!

is this supposed to be a dream car thread? I can list a million outside my price range.

perhaps fine tune it to cars you can afford, the heart says yes, but the head says no?

I really really wanted an AE86 back in high school (thanks Initial D) but with the stupid prices they call for now, I don't think I'd ever get one anymore.

Any Alfa or Saab.

Any 911 pre 1995, my mate had one, reall nice turbo and it cost him a small fortune to keep on the road..If money were no object then maybe.

can I generalise and say anything the italians have built or designed... I'd worked for Alfa Romeo a few years back, some gorgeous cars (i really wanted the 156 GTA), engine note to die for, drive very nice, but once they're due for a major service (60,000km), run, run far away. Which is about the time they won't start, the selespeed won't work and paint will be faded.

Nice taste in cars!

Figaro will get you more looks than a Ferrari!
Pity at $20k not sure if it's worth it.

Mine would have to be the GTR

It was the point I was trying to make

Ive always loved the look of the Triumph TR6, but I strongly suspect that owning would give me a real dose of reality

Any Jap ricer ... ie Supra, Evo, Subaru, GT-R .... admire the engineering hate the image.

Any Australian built performance car ... admire SOME of the engineering hate the image ... and resale ...

Most current BMW / Audi / Mercedes products as they come in auto only ....

No Ferrari ... I'd trade my wife for 1 but it would break down ....

No Porsche ... again admire the engineering hate the image. Too many bought for show and NOT properly used .....

And the car I currently would like to have most of all ... BMW 135i Coupe in manual with BMW Motorsport kit .... because it only has 4 seats.
