If money was no issue and if i did drive a car id probably want a Mercedes G wagon. Luxury and off roading.
Just one?

To keep the other exotic company, a 2008 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder Roadster.. gated.

1956 Chevy Nomad
Retro mod
funny, mine is a 1957 Nomad. Used to be a ’67 Goat, but over the years, I have really been drawn to the ’57 Nomad or the Bel-Air (hell, ’56, ’57, ’58…)
The cop car from The Blues Brothers. It’s got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it’s got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It’s a model made before catalytic converters so it’ll run good on regular gas.
That Mt Prospect Cop car’s got a lotta pick-up, need to fix the lighter, though
On some days, any vehicle leaving CA
My first pick is an all original 1940 Ford coupe, complete with the original flathead 85 HP motor. Second pick is an all original 1969 Mustang Mach I with the small block 351.
I’ve actually been shopping around for the ’40 Ford and found quite a few of them, but finding one that has not been modified in any way, shape, or form, is difficult. I’m looking for one that is exactly as it was when it left the assembly line. A little rusty, and in need of repair, but as long as the car is complete without any missing parts or body damage, I’d be happy. My lifelong hobby has been building hot rods and fast cars, but with the ’40 Ford, I’d leave it all original, and make it look and run like new.
The car I’d want the most – even if I had to pay for it (assuming I could) is a Ferrari F40.
Absolutely no question.
I want a Mini-Cooper Clubman. Something about those swinging barn doors at the back sing to me. Yeah, I know it’s now outta production….but, I can still dream.
Well…. I’d probably go with a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Magnum, but maybe not, they tend to lose hubcaps real easy.
Remember the movie “Bullitt” and the chase scene with the 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390 Fastback?
That Charger lost at least 5 hubcaps hitting bumps and hard cornering…. of course nobody said I couldn’t get aftermarket wheels, right?
Now I’m thinking about that Mustang tho….
But I’m getting too old for muscle cars…. maybe I should just settle for a bone stock ’34 Ford pickup truck in mint condition.
Yep, made up my mind,
I want the truck.
I LOVE the oldies! Always wanted a 69 Corvette or similar….But technology is so freaking awesome!
I want an Orange Convertible Evoque by Range Rover. I’d be look so cute in the drivers seat.
A semi-luxury vehicle with all the creature comforts and rack & pinion steering. But it also has to be as reliable as my 88 Volvo wagon and that’s the rub. I can not identify any cars in the $20k-$60k range that is reliable. All manufacturers can’t seem to build a quality car after all their years in business.
