As long as I get to keep my 86 Carrera it would be the Bentley GT for sure.

How would you know? You've never owned an exotic car.

And where you live, there is no one to look at you. You've got issues, buddy.

GT1, possibly a 917. Many good runners-up in this thread.

The McLaren F1 offers just about everything anyone would want or need. And with an unlimited budget, you could send it right to McLaren for maintenance, color changes, what not and what have you.

I wouldn't mind a 330 LMB though.

I would fantasize about owning something amazing that I would never be able to afford or own in this lifetime. Like an original Ferrari GTO. Most of the people here understood the proposition.

Anyone who says that LL is their dream girl has schitty taste, like saying that a common Mustang is better than an exotic car.
Hey Denis, have you ever been wrong in your entire life? Have you ever not had the last word? Is your opinion always the right one? You're as smug as those Coexist Pious drivers--just in the opposite direction of the social spectrum.

So some guy picks a car worth $100K. You know, for some people that's as unobtainable as your $15M 250GTO. And to him that $100K car is more desirable. Why piss on his cornflakes?

And last I recall, you're the resident PPOT Lindsay Lohan superfan. Maybe she's not your dream girl, but you certainly give her more benefit of the doubt than even her parents. Too bad for her you're not a judge.

Dude, you obviously have some issue with me that I was not aware of and frankly the attention makes me uncomfortable. Does it matter that no one else seems so offended by my remark? It's the Internet, for chrisakes...

I've never been a LL "superfan", just naturally defend all underdogs being attacked by toothless cowards on web forums. That seems to have confused you. Please stalk someone else.

I think my choice would be a 90's Ferrari F1 car, along with the resources to track it around the world maybe 12 times a year.

Right, forgot about the GT1 technically being a street car

That might make the list too as well as the Dauer 962

Holy crap, come on guys, does every thread on here have to turn into some kind of pissing match??
We cant even talk about cars on here without attacking eachother.

This place is getting sad lately.

Lincoln Zephyr... I would take any of them, but the two door convertible is to me; as cool as it gets.

No question.... Ford GT40P, # 1075.
An American hero from my youth, and 2-time (!!!) LeMans winner
Shown below at the 2009 Monterey Historics, I believe.

2nd choice is a tie between a 917, a 935, and a 959. (I have visions of bringing a real 935 to "r u faster than a redneck". With Boris Said as a ringer driver.)

In the "car as public monument/fashion accessory" category, unlimited $ would have me in a Mercedes 540K Special Roadster and/or Duesenberg SJ.

One of my dreams as a kid...

I'd go get it, bring it back home and drive it around town in the summers.
