If you had enough dosh, what would your dream purchase be?

For me if we're talking modern cars, I'd have to go with a Dodge Challenger. White with some colour stripes, or just plain white.



Or maybe something old school, a Mercedes-Benz 300S.

You buying? =p

I want that Mercedes SLS in Transformers 3 but it's $200k base price!!



What a handsome craft.

Such lovely lines.

Shark, is that the Benz Hugo Drax had in the Moonraker novel? Would've been a '55 model.

Its hardly practical and probably stems from watching the Avengers in my youth moreso than any other connection, but I think my ultimate car would be the Bentley 4 1/2 litre Speed Six.



On a more practical and realistic note I am very partial to both the Aston Martin V8 Vantage which I am sure you all recognise or the Lotus Evora...which is almost affordable.

I'd test drove one of these today and I'd also test drove an Aston Martin DBS Volante.

Now I can't decide which one is cooler!!

They are both in the low $210k range!!

A DBS.

I'd quite like one of the Focus RS 500 as well. Although I imagine it's a bugger keeping that matt black paintwork pristine.

I have a hankering for a Capri body, and then finding out what engine I can shoe-horn under the bonnet. I suspect the V10 from a Gallardo might fit in there :D

I'd also like a 1971 Stingray.

I like 'drivers' cars.

I like the 2013 Lamborghini Estoque...around $200k...thing is, I *can* buy it if I want to... but I guess I'm still wondering if I should go that high on a car, in this economy....
