I'd like to drive the new Civic Type R, and the Focus RS. I could see the Focus RS as a daily driver.

I'd love to drive an original Boss 302, and a lot of the old muscle cars from many years before I was born.

I think I'd like to own a 392 Challenger, T/A model preferably. Not more than I want to own my Corvette, but if something were to happen and it was taken from me, I'd be looking real hard at one. Or the above CTR or Focus RS. large part of me thinks I'd end up with another Subaru WRX STI instead though.

none, think the list of wallet drainers has gotten long enough
if you can, find a classic car dealer its a lot cheaper to test drive than buy
the 1st gen Z were super cool...just dont expect to be impressed by power

Mclaren 675 spyder would be on the list...but at 429 grand..I'll not be buying one...

I'll be happy with a rear mid engine corvette...with a dct...

But outside of corvettes?

I guess a Porsche 991.2 model S with a dct would be on my real life pricing list...

Crazy pricing list? 675 spyder and or Ferrari 488 spyder

I have a whole list of them ranging from a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California to an L88 Vette and finally a 4spd Hemi Superbird!! Many others as well!! I've been fortunate to have driven many American 60's and 70's musclecars as well as newer American muscle and exotics.

C7 of the Year - Unmodified Finalist 2021
Default

I wanted a Lamborghini Gallardo but I couldn't afford one so the next best thing for for me was a C7. I got the chance of driving one for about 20 minutes this summer and I don't want that model anymore. We traded keys for a bit, I drove his car and he drove mine and after 10 minutes I wanted my car back, they still look cool and sound awesome though. Just getting in and out was a complete deal breaker as the door doesn't open wide enough among a few other things. So now I have my sights on a Huracan and saving up for one(Damn expensive and so very few in the lower price range up here in Canada!). I have a 1:24 die cast on my dash in my work van and a pocket sized one in my jeans on the weekend, I pat the one on the dash for every difficult job or difficult customers I have to deal with. That's my goal. Took a few pics comparing my car to this rental and even took my lunch break across the street a couple a times and admiring it.

The Chevy SS always tempts me. I very nearly bought one before my Vette and I can't promise I won't in the future. With the inevitable gas price hikes, I thought about trading in my Silverado and Vette for an SS to go down to one car. But every time I drive my Vette I'm reminded that's a silly idea.
