Unkie T, what's your dream car? And what's your PRACTICAL dream car? Women don't count.. especially the young ones.
If I were to shoot for a "hypercar" of some stripe, I loved the Koenigsegg when I first saw it, though the shoes included with the Pagani is the sort of thing that's right up my alley. . .
Practical dream car - oddly enough, another S2k, but with Asura's special touches on there. Barring that, a 1 series or Cayman is quite do-able once I get the re-fi and my Horn purchase situations sorted out.
As for women . . . women aren't cars.

Dream car - I know I'll get a lot of shit of sounding so typical, but a Ferrari V-12 convertible of nearly any year would be most excellent. Given my mechanical aptitude though (read: none), newer would probably be better.

Who's Asura?
. . . Asura and I survived one helluva weekend in Coachella, along with some epic drives way-back-when.
He's a good guy. . . and arguably smarter than I am.

Interesting. How do you feel about the Ferrari California? I hated it at first... but it's growing on me.

The new Ferrari California is a superb car so long as you don't get it in any of the traditional Ferrari colors (read: red, red, and. . . yellow or white). Black, Green, TDF Blue (
) could all be most excellent. However, as it's a V-8, it doesn't quite get me going like the long bonnet V-12s.Long bonnet Ferrari V-12s are a pure joy. My friend (and co-worker) has a '69 Daytona and a '71 2+2, and both of them are symphonic when they're running.
