427 Cobra. Yeah, I know people say it (or rather all the replicas) are a bit of a one-trick pony, but it's been a dream car since I was a kid.

Berettafan, while it’s not green if you are ever in CO let me know and you can drive my 7.2RS.

For me, 959, F40 or real 427 Cobra

Mine would probably be a 993 GT2 Evo.

Ferrari 250 gto is an obvious choice, but I've always had this rare Ford in my top 3 (or 5). The GT40's ill-fated successor, the P68.

Really? What year is that from? Most of the ones I have seen don't look anything like that except for one that the owner admitted he had modified.

It looks like an early 80s GT-5. I can’t be more specific about the year, they started making them around 1980 and made them like that for around four or five years. Nothing to do with Ford, so quite a different car than the early ones

Here's a 71 De Tomaso that has not been spoilered. The core shape is the same.

I don't mean to barge in since you asked java but I struggled naming it last night. Not used to all the bling stuff

I'd take a long-wheelbase Maybach, if it came with Liz Hurley as a driver.

Ora passenger.
