Just for fun: Your top 5 car wish list
Since it is the Season that we think about wishes of both loved ones and our own, why not also think about the top 5 cars we wish we had in our garage...if we had the space and money of course. And I know some of you ARE fortunate enough to already own 5 or more....that's OK, you can play too..
![]() Rules: yes there are rules, but only one... Your #1 pick pick has to be the car that would be dearest to you, 5 would be the first you would sell should you, i don't know, go through a financial crisis or something. So I'll start, hope this will be fun!! 1. modified 930 with sequential turbos & light weight 2. 73 carrera rsr 3. 997 GT3 RS 4. Ferrari 288 GTO 5. 65 mustang fastback with engine and suspension mods |

1. Ford F-150 4X4 pickemup (my Dodge getting long in the tooth)
2. Ford "boss 302" Mustang. (Yet to arrive...faster than BMW M3) 3. 2009 Bullitt Mustang (got it) 4. Ford Ranger anonymous times driver (got it) 5. '50 Ford coupe...the dream powertrain changes over the years. Right now, 5.0 Mustang power, 6 speed tremec, Independent suspension on all 4...brembos. Want it to look stock, not drive out so... No more Urpeen cars for me that require 180 mile round trips to have serious work done. Did that for over 4 decades, finally wised up, decided to simplify a bit.

The El Camino is surprising. Whod've thunk? They do look cool and maybe it's under rated as well. http://image.chevyhiperformance.com/f/9170217/0603ch_01z+1967_Chevrolet_El_Camino+Front_Driver_S ide.jpg |

Ha, these are fun.
1) '73 Carrera RS (clearly, the best of the 911 series) 2) '73 911S (I'd have this in daily driver rotation). 3) One of the V10 BMW M5 (daily driver). 4) '73 Dino 246 GTS (the most beautiful sports car ever made, a little jewel). 5) 1980 BMW M1 |
