Dream car?

Postby Woodlouse2002 » Wed Apr 21, 2004 5:10 pm

I'm starting this thread to see how imaginative you lot are. I want to know what is your dream automobile? And don't no one go shouting out Porches or Vipers. Your real dream car. One that doesn't exist but could be made by customisation or some other method.

Now to start this off, my dream car would be a Volkswagen camper, of pre 1970 vintage, with a nice Rolls Royce Merlin stuck in the back. Think of the look on that boy racers face as you pull away from the traffic lights. ;D

Jaguar XJ220 with a V12 and twin turbochargers. Should result in 700+ hp.  8)
Or a DB-605 with Methanol injection instead of that V-12 (1300hp).

It certainly isn't this!

I don't know what this guy was on when he built this "M3" its actually an old 6 series BMW that went, er, slightly wrong IMHO ;D  ::)

For me, I'll take one of these....

400BHP (PS) V8 BMW M5 Engine

And stuff it in this....

Perhaps the best handling car I've ever driven...

No doubt lose my licence shortly thereafter!  ;D

This guy surely wanted to build a BMW 8x0 (one hell of a great car!)...

Reminds me of the guy from Poland who built himself a Mercedes SLR for one fifth of the price of a "real" SLR.
