Our Cars (dream or actual)

[Chris]

Saw this exact same scenario when I was living in New Jersey.  The roads in the cities were full of potholes, uneven pavement and miscellaneous crap, so folks drove SUVs.  People out in the boonies were driving Mustangs and Camaros.

As a fun random fact, the drug gangs in Camden cruised around on ATVs- a cop friend told me it was because when police chased them, they could hop sidewalks, cut through vacant lots and other maneuvers that police cars couldn't replicate.  Nothing like adapting rural tools for urban life…

It is funny how you summed up about 25 years of my life in that post….

Discoveries are totally ok too :). Regarding the parking pic above, parking spaces in the city center have decreased by about 60-70% thanks to the copious amounts of snow we've gotten in the last two weeks. No shortage for 4x4 parking spaces though..

This means that when you're living in a big city here, you'll need a 4x4.
We country boys get by with Minis (whose bottom is constantly scraping snow which is accumulated between tire tracks)

Not exactly. There's us city boys with garages too.

great ride man, love it. Looks like an amazing example.

928?  Always liked those…

[loghill]

It's a 968. I love 928 but it's far too complicated for a daily driver…

[Giles]

944 I think…

^you are correct

This was parked outside the W hotel during F1 a few months ago.  This picture isn't mine, I couldn't get a clear shot because so many people were swarmed around it.  I don't think I would ever have the balls to take a $2M car out on the open road, or anywhere for that matter.

^^^I'd drive the HELL out a that.. 

But I'll just wait on this… 2014 Stingray

[J-IV]

Dude, been drooling on those Stingray pics since they released them..

[BLACKFROSTT]

^^^^ Oh yeah, its a beast… Love the look...

Actual:

Dream (perhaps in a different color):

A friend of mine is a Lamborghini salesman, so I did at least get a ride in this car.

[BLACKFROSTT]

^^^ I'd drive the hell outta that also… Even in the stinkbug green paint! 

[Chris]

Lamborghinis should only be sold in obnoxious colors- orange, yellow, lime green, etc.  I mean, really- it's a Lamborghini.  It's not like someone is going to say, "Hey, I really like that paint job.  Nice and subtle."

On a similar note, Ferraris should only be red.  Anything else just looks wrong.

[Seul]

512B in navy or black.

I will not back down from this, Houston…

Edit: I don't think it was ever made in black…  But this is the car I'm thinking of:

I may be the only one but I love the simplicity of white paint on a supercar.

I will own one of these one day, maybe not quite like this but I love 66-67 Coupe De Villes.
