Fuck all with that wish.

My insurance company is still trying to deal will the loss of that one and now having to pay for a replacement,  because that shit show of a ship carriers insurance is fighting the operating company. FML....

I have an appointment in Chicago to spec. The replacement.

Whatever. I fully expect to be pushed off again because I am not a preferred buyer.

Damn, that sounds like a royal pain in the ass.



Yeah, it not that bad, but there was a lot of fingers pointed. I bought a Taycan to get the allocation to buy the GT3.

Sold the Taycan as soon as contract lawyers said GTG.

So waiting again.

My grandmother no shit owned one, bought it off the showroom floor. She died Xmas Eve in 1999 and it had 47k miles on it. My grandfather asked if I wanted to buy it for $4500 but I unfortunately couldn't at the time because I was getting married and needed everything I had for our house. He sold it to my piece of shit uncle who turned around and sold it for nearly 6x that amount.

I bought my dream car at 18.  A 1970 OLDS 4-4-2.  455 4 speed.  I could afford to buy one tomorrow but it would be a waste of money.  So I bought a mid life crisis guitar much cheaper.

New Z06.

Back in 1997, I was 15 and started saying Chevy needed to make the Corvette more like an exotic car.  Also have said for a long time that a new Corvette is my "within reason dream car."  Well, 25 years later they finally are building that Corvette I wanted them to build and I can finally afford something like that.

So, new Z06 it is.  Have a deposit down to buy one (at two huge dealers, both sell at MSRP).  Unless there are delays or shenanigans, I should get a first year car.

My "not within reason" dream car would probably be a Huracan Performante.

At least the other poster knew what you meant, I think?

I love all GN variations (T-Types, GN's, GNX's) and the TTA's, but would love to get a GMC Syclone (10 years ago when they were relatively dirt cheap).

I love the classics, grew up with them.  67 GTO, 72 Old Cutlass 442, 57 Chevy.  I've been lucky enough to drive all three (not own).  I love the 73 Trans Am idea earlier in this thread and a bunch of others.

But @Wolverine1776 posted something really special IMO.  My Lord, look at that.

Well Nick Cage fucked my favorite. That GT500 is sweet. But he had to go make it “Eleanor”. Black with white stripes would be awesome.

My first car was a Lincoln Mark VII. I always wanted a ‘92 LSC all black and add a supercharger. I still have dreams about the car.

A 69 Camaro, gray with black stripes would be pretty cool.
