What car do you want?

Not talking about a gti clio (or a turbo corsa, wyety;)), but one of those vehicles that would probably be the result of a lottery win (even if it’s just so you can afford the insurance!)

For me, there can only be one option, the Ford Falcon XB coupe, 5.7L of V8 poke, wrapped in a shell which is obviously familiar to anybody who has any taste in movies.

Something to scare the boy racers with, should make the tart in the M5 pay attention too :devil:

Seen that barryboys site many times before and everytime I look at it it pisses me off, ok so some of the cars are dog ugly but its down to individuals what they make of their cars…even if it is a piece of shite as long as the owner likes it who gives a **** ?
It’s all to easy to knock someones work rather than actually do something that requires as much and money.

I would love to actually see what this Barry drives ? a 2CV or something as classy :o

Cadillac defies convention and shatters all notions of what an ultra luxury car should be with the Cadillac Sixteen concept model. This new breed of Cadillac surges past other vehicles in this class, creating an entire new realm of opulence, craftsmanship and technological wizardry.

The Cadillac Sixteen is rear-wheel drive powered by an all-aluminum 13.6-liter engine. It includes technology such as Displacement on Demand, which allows the engine to run on four, eight or sixteen cylinders depending on driving conditions. Other advancements include:

* 7,000 rpm capability
* 1,000 horsepower and 1,000 lbs.-ft. of torque
* Advanced cylinder head port design
* Titanium alloy valves and valve springs
* Variable camshaft phasing

The interior is a pure expression of design, with fine woods, precision cut metals and crystal used in harmony throughout. The opulent, yet refined, interior features:

* Hand-stitched Tuscany leather seating surfaces
* Hand-woven silk carpets
* Custom-designed crystal cluster dials
* Custom Bulgari® clock
* Reclining rear seats with foot and leg rests
* Bose® sound system
* DVD Information and entertainment system
* Fifth-generation OnStar in-vehicle safety and security communication system

The Cadillac Sixteen reflects the bold, dramatic design of the new Cadillac, with much of the car’s structure and body panels made of aluminum. The highly refined and malleable aluminum allowed Cadillac craftsmen to create shapes and designs that would not have been possible if only steel and wood were used.

Just the one or can we have a selection?

My dream garage would contain a replica GT40, as an original would be far to precious for me to do anything with other than sit it in the garage and look at it. Second would have to be a 1969 Mustang Boss 429, in candy apple red for preferance.
And a '69 Dodge Charger (ala Dukes of Hazzard) would be nice too, but not essential.

I think an E-Type Jag roadster and a MacLaren F1 go without saying, although my choice of a Landrover ‘TombRaider’ special edition may look rather out of place standing next to the TVR Cerbera :wink:

And because there has to be a sensible car in there somewhere, an Audi A4 V6 TDi Avant Quattro would handle all the day to day running about very nicely :slight_smile:

7

My dream car would be a 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro. Non-numbers matching, heavily modded suspension, TH700-R4 tranny and crate 350ci V8 producing about 400hp, then slap a supercharger on top of that baby:devil: And SS badges to make it look good:D
:love:

But more realistically, I’ll probably end up with a 3rd gen Camaro, similar setup as above, minus supercharger.

Aston Martin V8

Would have to be a Koenigsegg CC.

It is currently the fastest street-legal car in production, with a top speed exceeding 390 km/h and an acceleration that
takes it up to 100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds.

Mucho :smiley:

TVR’s are great cars if all you want to do is go fast in a straight line… point to point they can’t touch an STi though! :nod:

Also I’d like to be able to drive my car, not have one which spends 2 days a week back at the dealer cos its broken down again! :stuck_out_tongue: :moon:
