What is your dream car?

If you could have any car in the world, what would it be?

Myself, I fantasize about finding a brand new CRX SI in my driveway, witha big fat bow around it. Will never happen, of course, since they don't make them anymore, plus, how often does someone really finds a car in their driveway with a bow around it? But it doesn't hurt to dream a little

How about you?

It's more of an acquired love, PK. At first I didn't like it, especially the original LeMans Quattro concept of a few years back that it's based on. IMO it could better without AWD though, especially while running a 572 HP 5.2L V10 starting next year

72 Hurst Olds Cutless

A friend of mine had one of these when I was in college. It was an "amazing" ride. It could really throw you back into your seats. I was in the car when he wrecked it. It was quite a bummer. No one was hurt, except for the car.

Ever since I've always wanted one.

Probably still an Acura NSX. I just love them. However, just about any Lamborghini or Ferarri would do, too.

^Exactly. So hard to find one that's stock. I'd never take a modded hand-me-down because I'll never know how hard it's been pushed (and that goes for any car in general)

How about you?

A CRX is great until you have an accident in one. They are death traps.
