If you could have two cars...

DBS Volante and Range Rover Sport.

If I'm buying?

My Comet convertible and a used Range Rover Sport.
Like a fine Detroit wine, this vehicle has aged to budgetary perfection...

In this fantasy situation, the car god would not make you buy your own cars.

But I'll play along with it...using my own means, I'd probably go with a late-90's LS400 + either a C126 560SEC or a resto-modded early-80's Coupe Deville.

Oh man, I don't know.

Jeep Cherokee and something else.

This is impossible.. We already have 3 cars between the 2 of us right now and is thinking of a 4th... :huh:

Range Rover Sports obviously have a much better image in the US of A than they do in England.

What the hell is that thing?

And why would you pick a Yaris? 


I think I'd go with a 2010 911 Turbo, and a Panamera Turbo.


Marussia B2.


I like the way the Yaris looks. It offers a lot of space for a small footprint.

Does the Car God bestow me with infinite gasoline? 911 Cabriolet and a Mazda CX-9.

WTF are you smoking?  I don't have a 262 Bertone.  It's a 242 GT.  And the 1990 Mazda MPV.

Who cares, it's a Swedish brick either way.

When the fuck did you get an MPV?

$$$ no object?

996 Turbo
Range Rover Sport

Realistically?

996 C2S
Some Bimmer wagon

Right now?

93 Accord w/an H22 swap
98ish Legacy GT wagon

Two cars is always simple. One for jekyll and one for hyde.

Either a new 760iL or S65 AMG and a Pagani Zonda R or maybe something more "pedestrian" like a GT3 RS.

Basically extreme performance luxury and no holds barred performance.

but the steering feel...

both have a pair of half shafts connected to the front spindles. However the GT-R uses magictanium, a vastly superior synthetic metal to honda's ricetanium.

but a properly forged rod of ricetanium provides superior steering feel than the appliance-tastic magictanium

You have no idea what you are talking about, Magictanium has a AGE of .5 gravities while ricetanium has a lower density per square sector but when exposed to a gravity factor of 1 or higher has similar sprung characteristics to regular aluuminium.

When my grandmother died.  I'll throw some pictures up on Sunday or something.

Still, I prefer the more natural balance of a 1993 Accord.

Well, there is a reason that alot of driving schools keep them on hand. Ricetanium or not, nothing has the balance of a honda.

Not the RS so it's not a huge PITA on regular roads

I'm 17 and I own 3 cars. 

That doesn't seem even remotely responsible.

940
242
MPV


The title to the 940 will be transferred into my name when I graduate.  The 242's title is already in my name.  My grandmother died two weeks ago and I got her MPV.
