This can change depending on my mood, but of late my dream car is a CTS-V Wagon. There's just something about a wagon that can do 0-60 in 4.2 seconds...

I love chevrolet with all my heart but there is one mistress I will cheat on Chevy for.
Since I was 7 years old I have absolutely loved this car. Sexiest Car Ever Made.
The All Black NO STRIPES 1999 Dodge Viper GTS coupe v10. Nothing beats this old body new ones are just a joke.

if i had the money and was able to find one to restore, it would be the
1973 AMC AMX. (the fastest car i've ever owned)
360 4bbl, dual exh., 4 speed manual, "Cardin" interior, Plum in color.
had this my senoir year in high school till my soph yr in college.
purchased off a county sherriff, he had installed aircraft landing lights behind the grill. (for more visability of course)
when i brought it home, my mom said she was not going to have a purple car sitting in the driveway, so i took it to "Earl Schieb"
his motto "Will paint any car, any color, for 69.95" had it painted metallic silver.
it took 2 coats. before i took it to paint, i removed any emblems that i could and masked off the hood stripe.
because for 69.95 they did not do any of that.
i know the pic say's '74. it was the closest i could find for the color.

Too many too list. Tanner Foust said something along the lines of always keeping a dream car just that, a dream car
there's less satisfaction thinking there will be nothing better?

Drawing a random car from my list, I'd have to go with an early 90s Geo Metro. With a cool 10million in cash stashed in Trunk and 3clips of ammo in the glove. Blue or green.



'54 Spyder
'57 Chev BelAir
'64 Impala
'69 Charger
Viper
Enzo
CTS-V
GT3
Among many others:yes:

1967 Impala. 4 door. Liked it even before the show came out. My great uncle had one, many moons ago.

Definitely the 2014 Nissan GT-R. Twin turbo, direct injected 3.8-liter V6 that produces 545 HP and 463 lb-ft torque. Zero to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds.

Price Tag: $105,000

Now if only our TBs and Voys had 543hp in a 3.8 V6.... That would definitly be on my list, i'd be FAST annd probably better on gas if your foot wasnt heavy all the time :rotfl:
Other than that, the cars i'd want in my garage beside my voy currently:
-CTS-V in white
-C63 AMG in a matte black
-bentley continental GT in white
-Rolls Royce Ghost (im not picky, any color would be nice lol)
Almost forgot, i have to get a tbss

sidenote: I find it amusing to see this car on the 'Supernatural' series because we are a 1-plate state here in Kansas

Here's the funny thing about that... I've seen most of the episodes, but haven't watched any of them on NetFlix, yet. When I was watching, mostly in Ohio, it always appeared to have an Ohio plate on the front. Red stripe, then white, then blue. I have a hypothesis that they edit a plate onto the front, depending on what television market they are in. Can't say for sure, though. I'll do some more research on this.

Would be a built on of these



with

ZZ502 or LSX454
T-56
Atlas TC
DynaTrac AIM Portal Axles Dynatrac - Confidence to Explore®
Linked
Coilovers
43 TSL SX or 44 BFG Crawlers
17 or 20 inch aluminum beadlocks
Both tops
Sliders
Cage
Dual winches
all the other offroad goodies

It would be Hugger Orange or Midnight Blue Metallic. Badass on the trails, but solid enough to drive anywhere.


Or about any super-car.

Not sure why, but I've always had a thing for wagons. Maybe because my Dad had always driven them. My first hand-me-down car was a 71 Ford Ranch Wagon with a 351C.

I, too, really like the Caddy CTS-V Wagon. Damn!

But, I'd really like to have a Mercedes Benz AMG CLS63 Shooting Brake. This is the wagon version of the "4 door coupe" aka the CLS. They only make it with the 6.3 AMG, so you're in for a FAST ride.

I'd love to have something like this.

crawl-o-matic-49368-albums2418-29888.jpg


I would make it with an expedition (long term outings) focus.

Something like this would work well too. I took a tour of their facility and their work is top notch and really slick.

I'm a GM guy through and through, and I always loved Pontiac Muscle. For me, it would have to be the classic 1977 Trans Am SE. I'd want one even if it wasn't the star of the best car movie ever.

Second to that would have to be an 87 Trans Am GTA in white - the digital dashboard was futuristic and space ship-like for the late 80s.

OK, I also like some bigger cars. Really big.

Anyone seen the GHE-O Rescue or Firefighter? This thing goes anywhere. I mean really, just about anywhere. Those wheels in the air are in case it tips over as you climb.

Thread revival... i like it!

While im all about american muscle and that heart pounding, jaw dropping sound of a beefy cam, my dream car(s) reside in Japan.

Hands down a mid 90's Supra or a Nissan Skyline R34 GTR V-Spec II. 2.6L Straight 6 twin turbo awd mmmmmmmmm.

I know I said before I'd take the Trans Ams, but I gotta add some to the list (in my head the list is actually really long, I don't think theres enough room here to list all of em :rotfl: )

GMC Syclone - It's what I like to pretend my S10 is (In high school I sure used to drive it like one :lipsrsealed: )

This one's a special edition that Marlboro did, even cooler cause it's super rare.

View attachment 33637


GMC Typhoon- The same thing, just in the Jimmy body. The original GM hot SUV, you might say it's the father of the TBSS.

View attachment 33638


And of course, since this is the dream car thread, the Hennessey VR1200 Twin Turbo CTS-V. :salivate:

For about 20 years, I had a framed poster of a Countach 5000S as my dream inspiration, till I saw these:
