Favorite Car/Dream Car: Ferrari 550 Maranello

Car that I will own no matter what(NO MATTER WHAT!)- Porsche 928, fitted with a LT5 engine, sequential six speed gearbox, and awesome LSDs. Yes yes...what's the point of American Muscle in a German car. Sir...first of all it's a Lotus engine..secondly, cause 385HP sounds a lot better than 320HP:)

Dream: R33 Skyline GT-R VSPEC tuned by Signal Auto. R32's are too plain and R34's are too boxy looking to me. Signal Auto has a street legal 700HP R33 Skyline, should be more than enough ponies to satisfy me for a while. :)

Realistic: Drop a TT engine into the 300zx I have now and get the Greddy or HKS turbo upgrade kit. Should be good for at least 350 HP at the wheels.

Ness: My friend has a turbocharged GSR (with some Type-R goodies in the engine) with a JDM front end and all I can say is, it's not all that. Of course it rapes my car, so I shouldn't be talking. :p

Ferrari F40 - Supercar King.
BMW E30 M3 - Most successful touring car ever. The BMW with the most trophies.
BMW E28 M5 - The original, M-Powered, unbloated Sport Sedan.
Lotus Elise - LTW, open top appeal.
Audi Sports Coupe - Original Quattro, Rally Champion.
Lancia Stratos - Rally Champion.
Mini Cooper - Rally Champion in a small package.
A2 GTI - My little daily driver.

-edit-
If I have the money, I think I'll buy my GF an Audi TT or
a Porsche Boxster. So much for NFS4's favorite car. :p

In my dreams: 1997-Current Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IV (but they'll never ship it over or have it converted to US specs :()

Reality: 1998-2000 Mitsubishi Mirage 4 Door with a Lancer body-kit from Wings West. Light conversion, minor engine mods and exhaust. Oh yah, sounds.

If I actually get off my lazy a** and go get a job I should be able to have my Mirage before the next year is up. :)
