Dream Automobile ?

[Shifting_Gears]

Base on the pricing, it may be possible.

The C8 is going to be a serious car for the money but God, that’s the first time I’ve seen that interior and whoever thought up that massive wall of buttons certainly did a line before drawing that up.

Well, you DID say dream, so let's go over the top Of course, these are just a few, I have many others...In reverse order...
Sports:
3. Morgan Aero Supersports

2. Lexus LFA

1. Mercedes SLR McLaren-love the sidepipes, maybe they could be used on one of Mustang's P51 tributes?

Luxury
3. Daimler Super 8

2. Maserati Quattroporte

And 1. If I could only have one, this is it. The Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé. 5800 pounds, 0-60 in 5.5 sec, 155 mph of power and utter luxury. Love the classic roofline reminiscent of 50's Facel-Vegas, or Lincoln Mk IIs, the suicide doors, and outrageous starlight headliner. With the "Bespoke" configurator tool, you can come up with hundreds of combinations of colors, interiors, and trims. I configured one in two shades of blue, white leather, and teak with a nautical theme. Yep, I'm obsessed.

And the one I could possibly scrape up enough to buy -40 years old, but has style, lol

A nice easy top five sports cars for me....

1) 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO - Because it is the most spectacularly beautiful car ever made
2) 1961 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 - Because it is a timeless, elegant design
3) 1992 Jaguar XJ220 - Because I am an idiot
4) 1964 Shelby Daytona Coupe - Because just look at it
5) 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing - Because I apparently have ridiculously expensive taste, come to think of it...


And as for luxury.....

I've always loved the looks of the late 30's era Mercedes 2-seater.

You guys are really dreaming--Nothing wrong with that.

I take a more practical dreaming deal: I will never be able to pay $70M for a rare 1963 Ferrari 250 GT0.

I like the previous Porsche GT3 Touring, and I'd add an used 2017 F12 Ferrari Berlinetta. Both are in my sights.

On that note, I’ll leave you with this... damn!

That is the same sound as a Mustang GT350. Nothing new as I hear it (the Ferrari had an aftermarket exhaust which will hurt the value in the future). .

This for all automobile enthusiasts who dream about owning those special automobiles one day but may not be able to due to the cost!!!

If you had money to buy 3 sports automobiles and 3 luxury automobiles, doesn't matter how old or new, which ones will you pick?

Any three sports cars - I would choose:
1. A Formula One race car from the V12 era (preferably a Ferrari).
2. Porsche 911 GT3 race car setup to GTE specs.
3. NASCAR Ford race car

Luxury -
1. Bugatti Chiron
2. Ferrari 812 Superfast
3. Can I count the Aston Martin Vulcan as a luxury car? I realize it's track only, but Aston is a luxury brand, right?

My thought is that in this imaginary world where I can afford these cars I can afford track rentals and teams of people to prep the cars for me when I feel like driving them.

I have never heard a mustang sound like that. Gt350 sounds good. But not as good as the F12
