Dream cars.

Thought this might be interesting.

1st and foremost, to me, is the Rolls Royce Phantom.



A 3 ton monster, a 6.8L V-12 developing 453 HP and 531 ftlbs. 0-60 in 5.5 seconds, 14.3 1/4 mile. It's just an awesome car.

As for dream cars, there is the Porsche 911 (and its variants) and everything else.

I would LOVE to drive a 911.



That's a 2012 Turbo S, you certainly know more about the variants than I do. Specs on this are

Horsepower (hp @ rpm): 530 @ 6,250-6,750
Torque (lb-ft @ rpm): 516 @ 2,100-4,250

516 at 2100 RPM??! Nice!

0-60 in 3 (!!) seconds.

I would like this one - 1936 Lagonda

I dreamed of owning a Jeep Wrangler for years. In 1999 I bought one and still drive it. With the top down it is just about the most fun I can envision getting from a car.

Another 911 wannabe owner in waiting.

I owned a baby Porsche when I lived in Germany (a 924 Turbo), but had several friends with 911's at the time and drove them pretty often. They're a very ballsy, fun drive.

Shelby Daytona.

Well, a modern facsimile...

1935 Auburn Boattail Speedster is my ultimate dreamcar;

But, I'd settle for this 1970 Hemi Cuda ;
