OK qualifying questions: New or used? Must it be road legal?

Lots of candidates, but I think it would be a 427 Cobra. My all-time favorite.

I do appreciate a lot of the other cars already mentioned, though: GT40, 917, XJ13, McLaren F1. And a couple not listed yet: D-type/XKSS, BMW CSL, 908/3, 935-76, Ferrari 512S.

Funny how almost no new cars are on anyone's list above.

the "all expenses covered" clause covers road repairs, right?

barring this, probably the gull wing.

Hey, If I don't have to pay for it or pay to maintain it, might as well go in style.

Les might be on to something here....many of the general public wouldn't have a clue what it is if you shaved the emblems, perhaps changed the grille a bit.

Early-mid 50's Ferrari. 166 or similar I think.

Wish I could buy it back, sort of. Beotech for parts which is why I sold it for stupid money to the Prime Minister of Kuwait.

Don't even have to think about it.

Street Legal Porsche 962

IIRC Porsche only made a few of these, beautiful.

I didn't think Porsche made any that were street legal. I thought the street legal versions came from Dauer.

When I was younger, I thought the 300SL Gull-wing was the shiznet, but as I've aged, I think I prefer the open topped 300SLs.

P4 sure the gt40 beat them
but the P4 is prettyer faster and way rarer the the over priced 62/64 gto

I think this is more attractive than the F40. The F40 is an amazing car, but they aren't pretty.

2.2E targa in jellybean color.o

speeder 05-03-2013 07:21 PM

There are some people who really dream small around here. Free car? Original Ferrari GTO. Done.

speeder 05-03-2013 07:22 PM

Let's see, free $15M car or free $100k car?

Decisions...

I'm close to retiring and I'm seriously considering this car. It would not be my daily but it wouldn't sit idle either.

I've been in a few and driven one. You can't be sad behind the wheel of a freaking Bentley. It's just not possible
