Default The need for impractical cars

I am saving up my pennies to get another impractical car in about 8 years. We had a Citroen Traction Avant as our wedding car. I plan on getting it for my wife as a 10 year anniversary gift.

While you're at it, get a crotch rocket, big screen TV, or hand gun. You know, "for the wife." LOL just busting your balls.

Excellent choice. I on the order hand seem to be getting older and older cars.

I got a sportbike and a 41 year old corvette with a modded 454 in it, that is all the impractical I can tolerate. But, if I were in the market for something really stupid, a kit Cobra with a 427 would be in order for me.

I like the Citroen, very, very cool, good luck finding a nice one.
