I will have to say. A Saleen focus. Just cause I wanted one. I know, its not a new car. But I would like a smaller car with some fun to it.

Next, it would be a Sport trac. It would have to be a V8 of course. Just so I could mod it and make it better.

After that, I would say. A Mercury Marauder. I always liked those cars. I still want one too.
Thats it for now.

i hate to say it but i love the WRX STI's they look awesome and you cant argue the performance and i can only dream about finding myself in one on a dirt road. but L takes the win over an STI in my book.

Today I drove by a mildly modified STI and IMO the car just looked exciting like it was being asked to be driven hard. However I went on a test driving day for fun and im gonna have to say the 08 BMW 335I is absolutely amazing. It drives like sex on wheels, and thats going from my current DD a 97 BMW M3.

I have always wanted a 93-95(?) Chevy Caprice Impala. For a mid 90s family hauler those things are mean. I've also had my eye on Gen 1 Lightnings and Chevy 454 SS since they were new (all of the above vehicles were in their prime about the time I turned 16).

I guess im the only 1 looking for something other than a fast vehicle. Im selling my truck, and right now im looking at a bagged 04 Colorado. I had a bagged 98 GMC Sonoma before the Lightning and ive really missed it.

C5 Z06....Or....03/04 Saleen

+1 C5 Z06 02 or 03 are decent priced and they are everywhere with low mileage. It will be my new DD. I looked into the new camero in 08 but they will be recockulously priced.
