Alright, Alright, Alright, Lemme tell ya what Melba Toast is packin here…Sorry, didn’t mean to go all McConuagehay on ya…
Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the dream car thread. Here you can choose to own any car you want. We are going to pretend that some generous benefactor has decided to buy you any car you want, But there are rules… If you want a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord or some other four wheeled tragedy that screams vacuum cleaner salesman, stop reading and GTFO, this thread isn’t for you.
You have to choose a car you would want to keep for a very long time (More than 10 years). You have to choose a vehicle, you can’t just have the value of the car in cash AND you have to keep the car for a long time, you can’t turn around and sell it.
You can’t already own your dream car. I know some of y’all here have some slick rides so you need to pick something you don’t own at this present time. However, If your dream car is a car you owned back in your youth that you had to sell because, you know, life, you can pick that car. Unless it’s a car you totaled in a moment of testosterone fueled stupidity, if that’s case it’s gone forever.
You’re not getting a raise, You are making your current salary and you still have your current bills to account for (mortgage, utilities, student loans, etc) Your life hasn’t changed what so ever. If you’re married with 2 young kids then you have to account for that. If you’re a semi retired empty nester in your 60’s then so be it, you can’t go back 30 years and start over. Where ever you are in life right now is where you are in this hypothetical situation. Nothing about your life has changed other than some crazy rich dude is gonna buy you your dream car no questions asked.
You have to choose a production car. It can be a custom car from someone like Chip Foose or from a tuner shop like Hennessy or Brabus for instance, but it has to be street legal.(if it is a non-U.S. legal import it can be brought into compliance) You can’t have Sir Jackie Stewart’s old Tyrrell 003-Cosworth or Dale Earnhardt’s Daytona 500 winning #3, but you can have something like a General Lee that was used in the show or the DB5 from Goldfinger for example. It can be an old/rare antique car, classic Detroit muscle car or high tech modern super car or even something that’s hard to import like the old Datsun/Nissan Skylines. It just has to be a production (or based on a production car) car, no race cars.
These rules are in place so everybody doesn’t pick something like the Bugatti Veyron or Pagani Huyrah. The car you pick is something you have to maintain with oil changes, tires, etc. as well as insure. I want you to be honest with yourself. So keep in mind you can’t take a Ferrari 458 or Lamborghini Aventador to Pep Boys to get some fresh rubber and an oil change. (You may want to google the maintenance costs of your choice vehicle before you pick 
)
When you make your pick give a brief explanation as to why you chose that car (and pics are of course cool).
So to summarize, You can pick any street legal production car so long as you can afford the gas and regular maintenance as well as insure it.
Every body got it? Good!
Let’s do this!
