The M3 was definitely the most fun "mostly stock" car I ever owned. I just had B&G coilovers, wheels and exhaust on it. I'd love to get another BMW at some point. I've tinkered with the idea of getting a 135i coupe, but I'm not sure how my fiance would feel about that :elephant:

Would definitely be a good pickup. Hehe.

I've been drooling over this one for a year, but unfortunately cannot afford one. The closest I have ever owned was a 1973 Dodge Challenger, that car cost me my license. I literally collected a dozen speeding tics before finally blowing the head gasket on it.

Please feel free to add yours:

I had a 1970 Challenger T/A 340 6pack :D No really.

It was one of my earliest resto projects. I drove around with it as a daily for one summer, then sold it to someone else who could afford to paint it. This was before the mopars started to EXPLODE in auction value. I also had a 72 Roadrunner 440 with air grabber ram air, and a 74 Roadrunner with a 318.

It's a cool looking car, but not something I would want to have again, unless I was rich enough to have a car warehouse.

I change my mind about dream cars on a daily basis. I had so many awesome cars in my life(of course, when I had them, I liked them, but I never quite appreciated them as much as I could have.)

My dad had a rule, that I couldn't drive until I bought a wreck, and learned how to fix it. Which was cool with me. So my first 10 cars or so were bought from salvage yards, or classifieds, and were towed into the yard. So of course, I went after cars that would be cheap to insure(antique rule), but had a lot of power.

Now, I'm just happy if I have a stick shift(real kind with a clutch + pedal) and I'm not blowing cash on gas. If I could have absolutely anything, I still have a soft spot for the Ferrari 250, namely the GTO class. I wouldn't want an OEM, because I couldn't enjoy it, unless I were Jay Leno. So I would get one of the better replica kit frames(which some are actually more durable than the original ferrari now thanks to better manufacturing techniques) and throw in a powerful, yet economical, modern motor and transmission. I know, it's blasphemy, but I don't care.

I'm selling my BMW right now. It's a 528i though.

So many to choose from..so I'll just pick a few that come to mind.

I always thought the 70 Camaros with the split bumper were the best looking muscle cars.

Aston Martins are beautiful, and IMO the DBS is the best.


Also, something like this would be badass. True sleeper.

An older car with mild exterior mods, with a Nelson engine.

Even with the modifications, you can tell that Nelson motor is simply too much for that car...dude was all over the road.

That's my next vehicle, a full-sized Tacoma. I bought the Tundra when it was first released in 2000. Prior to that I owned a fully loaded Dakota w/the V-8 package(which sucked compared to Toyota's V-8 package). Dodge sold their performance computers for the Dakota as an aftermarket product, while Toyota put in all the performance stuff on factory models. That Tundra would downshift at 80 to pass, had it up to 115 once w/room to spare. I even beat one those BMW 2-seater convertibles off the line in it...twice.

Dude was pissed he got owned by a truck.

I love my Tacoma, too! 2011 reg. cab 4x4 5 speed. Great in crummy weather and has been extremely capable the few times I've taken it off-road. It's my third Tacoma. Getting ready to order a set of TRD beadlocked wheels and some BFG TA KOs 265/70/16.

Here's the wheels:

I know, but it's just so beautiful. I'm sure it's a bit scary to drive...but damn it sounds so damn good is is totally impressive. I've watched all their videos before and they just put a grin on my face.

The Bugatti Veyron. Dream Car, as I'll never see one personally. As my 1st car was a 1987 Toyota MR2, and more realistic in terms of ever owning another, I would also include the 3rd generation MR2's.

I watched a second one with a Camaro I believe as well, it wasn't finished...had no windshield. The guy hit the gas and the whole car shuddered, I think it's the wheel base on some of those 60's muscle cars. Those dual turbos would probably translate better to a Lamborghini, or anything else with a lower profile/wider base imo.
