Dream car that is currently in production: Porsche 911 Turbo (the new one, technically not in production YET). BMW M5 if I need four "real" seats (manual gearbox only, thanks). Bugatti Veyron if I need to get to work REALLY fast.

Dream car that is NOT in production: McLaren F1

Dream car that is not in the fantasy-land price range: Mazda RX-8.

Caparo Freestream T1

Formula 1 performance and street legal. Even faster than the Bugatti Veyron on track!

0-60 in less than 2.5 seconds

0-100 in less than 5 seconds



























Imagine driving down the street in that thing!
