Fantasy Christmas: Which Car Would You Choose?
Let's say Santa gave you your choice among these five cars: Jack Olsen's Black Beauty (pre-crash), Thom's '77 widebody cab, Bill Verberg's Targa, the Strosek previously owned by Thrown Hammer or Randy W's 911 T track car. What will it be?

Juan Ruiz's beast would be my pick. I can't imagine driving a p-car with 500hp. That would be a thrill.

Jack's old car would have got my vote normally but I am holding out for next xmas when racer911rs's car will be completed. Man, that engine looked so beautiful- if the rest of the car is going to follow that standard I think it will be hard to beat!.
As for this xmas- I am happy with my own car and thankful that I am in such a situation to own such a beast! rgds Ben

I'm excited about the new Black Beauty, but I'll always wish I had the old one.

All the cars listed are worthy fantasies but for me it is an arena red 993 C4S with as much weight taken out of it as possible.

I would rather have my 2300 pound 930 turbo with too many mods to mention. Lightweight,stripped of all unnecessaries, lightweight interior, plexiglass, naca ducts, ruf yellowbird front and rear spoilers, rsr suspension, jarvis tech, cwm, electomotive fuel management, 9x11x17 wheels with 245 and 335 tires, bandbexhaust, recaro racing leather covered buckets, and on and on. By the way I am currently building a 383 Chevy powered 76 coupe with even more chassis and suspension mods with centerlock wheels..yes 935 wheels...and so on.

G50 Carrera Targa, Black on Black, Turbo body, european lights, GHL exhaust, SSI's, Aero mirrors, Silver gauges, 930S wheel, Carrera "whale tail," lowered and stiffened on polished&black 8x16's and 10x16's, sport seats and a nice sound system. Mike Feinstein's comes closest=beautiful!

I wouldn't mind a split windshield double cab transporter. Doesn't have to have the 911 engine, but something like this would do
