Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Dream Cars?

I prefer the black version, yes, but the yellow goes better with the wheel color.

+1 on the ugly yellow color.

Here's a red one... WITH a spoiler... Oooooo.... Ahhhhhh...



Oh, and look.... Someone has a racing version...

Hey, those were winners in the 90s in DTM, I believe.

My wife has a late model S80, best car she's ever owned and she's had her share of 'em. I only did the trucks until diesel got outrageous, now I'm Corollin' it back and forth to work ... the one car that will most certainly make Mark the absolute top dog in his minivan.

After all those posts, I have to say that our 850 has cost us a small fortune in repairs and whatnot, creaks like a wooden sailing ship, and has rock hard suspension.

Accelerates pretty well, though.

Rick, you sound like my father-in-law. He's got a F250 diesel, but ended up buying a used Corolla for commuting.

Without getting too nit-picky, and since 0-100 numbers would be hard to compare given all the various conditions involved in tests like that, but I'd say the 427 would have held the record less than that, probably until the mid 80's. Off the top of my head, I'm sure a 1984 Ferrari 288GTO, 1987 Ferrari F40, and the legendary 1986 Porsche 959 would beat it. And probably a RUF Yellow Bird too, if that counts as a production car.

I'll throw my hat in with a Porsche 959 as an ultimate dream car, mainly due to its ahead of its time groundbreaking technical innovations, and the mystique of no one being able to legally own one in the US during, and long after its prouction run.

Seriously? I wasn't kidding about the van being "a".... (maybe not "the").... dream vehicle.

I NEED a van for my business, like it or not, and I've never had a vehicle with heated leather, power moonroof, MP3-capable 6-disc changer with XM, backup camera, a certified low-emissions rating, a decently powerful engine that shuts down cylinders as needed for a real-world 28MPG, Tri-zone digital temp, etc., etc... I love this thing.

OK, OK, I could be persuded by an SLR McLaren:


Or a Jaguar XK XKR:


Now you guys made me unhappy with my new van!


Bastards.

This one's pretty sexy...Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

I'd take a 67 vette or a stang for it's classy lines anytime somebody wants to give me one but I have to say I don't know if I could have any more fun than I do with my current vehicle.

I know I'll be made fun of but here is me, livin the dream in my 03 Jeep Rubicon with a moderate, yet still stable and roadworthy lift and a bunch of other mods and goodies.
