Wel, I already have my dream cars....

1966 G.T.350H
1957 Thunderbird which I completely frame-off restored about 9 years ago.

I also have a 1966 Mustang fastback in the garage that will be a fuel injected "modern Shelgy" if I ever get back to work on it and I just picked up a 1966 Mustang coupe for free yesterday (just a shell but in awesome shape) that will be getting a late model fuel injected SHO V6 and a 5 spd transmission to be a cool daily driver.

All my cars are dream cars to me and I have no need for fancy out of reach toys.

I can't name just one, there are many that I can't afford, but would love to have.

I envy Jnetty99, because his dream is not far from his reach. How old are you Jnetty99? I'm betting you're on the young side.

Now, a COOL car is the Toyota VOLTA. Go hybrid *Supercar*. Pass any 'vette on the road *and* leave it stranded without gas while the Volta keeps going :)

Jason


the Volta only gets around 32 mpg and does a 0-60 in about 4 sec.

Toyota Volta

While its mileage is good its not really impresive for a hybrid

and since when is 4 secondes faster than 3.7 from the Z06

what about cost as well, the Z06 will only set you back 65 grand

0-60 doesn't measure SPEED, it measrues QUICKNESS. In any case, what kind of mileage does the Z06 get? I'd bet real money it's nowhere *near* 32MPG :)

And *ONLY $65k*? I take it you've got car cash dripping from your pockets by the thousands?

Jason

The Z06 is a much more desirable car than the Volta. Now if you'll excuse me I'll go stare at the kickass sportscar, not the stupid hybrid

Id have to say my dream would be the Aston Martin DB9. Beautiful looking car and a pretty good performer to boot.

low mileage, i believe they had a 4 speed M. unsure on the engine, but it was decent.

Porsche 964 Turbo 3.6. Last of the air-cooled, RWD Turbo 911's. Special. :)

The '86 951 I've got now is a nice step in the right direction though. :D
