Default Me and my work friend both bought our dream cars

The whole time I had my e92 335i, I would tell all of my coworkers that I was going to own a c5 before the end of the year, and one thing that really helped push me more to get it is my coworker who bought his dream car, a 50th anniversary RT charger. I absolutely love the color of his charger.
EDIT:Its a 100th anniversary charger, I made this post super fast on my 15 minute break lol

Welcome to the C5 world. I'm on my third C5. Love them. Your buddy has a Sweet car also. But I like yours the best.

I'm a big Mopar fan and have had four Ram Hemi powered trucks to sit next to my 02 vert in the garage. Good stuff others can't compete with.

Both cars look great!

I hope the rain doesn't cause any permanent damage to either.

Beautiful pair of cars - while the C5 is my favorite, your friend's Charger is a very nice performance sedan.

Sorry but if a modern Charger is your dream car, you need to dream bigger.

Welcome to the forum, although I suggest you find more interesting work friends...his dream car is a 2+ ton 4 door automatic cop car riding on an E-class Benz chassis from 20 years ago?

Tell him to dream harder 😜

My brother in law just phoned and asked me if I would be interested in buying his 2005 Mercedes SL55 AMG hard top convertable, silver and black with panoramic roof. 35k miles for $25k. 500 hp always garaged. Well if there was a dream car for me that would be one. I got two sports cars already...
