Design your dream car.
Like the title says, this is a game where you design your dream car (not pick an existing one). You can be as complicated or simple as you want. Maintenance, cost are unimportant. The only things that matter are what you want to do in it and what you want it to do.
Mine would have a carbon fiber monocoque chassis with an aluminum foam crash structure. Wishbone suspension all the way around, push rods to adjust ride height and pull roads for toe. Camber is adjustable via shims.
MR configuration, with a V12 based on the engine from the BMW Concept 6. That nets you a V12 that revs to 9000 RPM and makes somewhere around 300-320 horsepower, is only 3.2L in displacement, and has nearly 200ft-lbs of torque by 2000 RPM. A traditional SMG is used that allows for no-lift-shift, although rev-matching is done by the driver.
It's a two-seater, with a wheelbase in the low 90s, a front track around 57-58" and a rear track around 60". Weight distribution is around 45:55, with 8.5x17 up front (245/40/17 tires) and 10x17 rears (275/35/17).
Aero includes a front splitter, full underbody tray, and diffuser. Active aerodynamics include a rear wing that deploys and can change it's inclination angle.
Carbon ceramic brakes, of course. No power steering.
Ideal curb weight is around 1900-2000lbs.

Why would you use a 12 cylinder to achieve that power level when an inline 6 will do the exact same thing? It'll even spin that high!
Carbon monocoque, 400hp NA 3 rotor. Everything else doesn't matter.

A koenisegg for the price, operating cost, and reliability of a civic. I will then drive them like how I use condoms.

2 seat roadster, front engine RWD 300whp, reliability and maintenance of a Honda Civic, 2200 lbs. with stiff (repairable) chassis, full interior, quality stereo system, fast soft top, comfortable but grippy seats
I am not a greedy man.
P.S. Or a dune-buggy with a mounted grenade launcher and unlimited ammo.

EASY!
Mine would be the fastest thing that you could possibly put on wheels. It would be basically like an F1 car with all the technologies banned for F1. It would have a fan to increase air speed over the diffusers to increase downforce.
Basically, what I want would be something similar to this.

I guess the difference would be I would want some kind of suit to go with it similar to what jet pilots have to help prevent them from passing out from high G's.
