I'll only wish for an early spring as this one just came home yesterday. After all, you can only drive one at a time.

Merry Christmas Pelicans!

1.Maserati Bora
2.Porsche 959 or RUF CTR can't decide
3.Maserati Shamal
4.Porsche 930 Turbo
5.Ferrari Testarossa\Lambo Diablo can't decide

I've got a divided heart. Liking both Italian thinking and German thinking.
The Bora is just the most beatifull and usuable supercar of all times.
959 an impossible dream.. Ruf CTR the same.
Shamal, one of the baddest and wild cars produced. It just looks so mean and packs a wild punch from that 3.2 Biturbo V8. Will buy one..
930 Turbo.. Will buy one, will love it.
Ferrari Testarossa.. Just a beatifull car, with a lot of heart and soul. I almost bought a Diable three years ago, a pitty the deal wasn't made...

Cheers, Jarle

993 c2S
Ferrari Dino GTS
Austin Healey 100 S
Lotus Exige

1959-61 Austin Healey MK 3000:



1989 Carrera Targa:


Honda S600:


1967 21 Window Deluxe Sunroof Bus (this one sits sad and neglected at my father's house, may someday make it to mine but not sure what has to go to keep it) - more sentimental than burning desire...:


1992 Toyota MR2 Twin Turbo - harkening to my high-school days, knew an older guy (probably 30 at the time ) that had one and he turned me loose in it:



......I could do this for days

-SWB 911 hot-rod (fun car)
-RS America (fun car #2)
-Volvo 245 wagon w/ LS1 (grocery-getter + stop light trolling)
-Subaru Forester STI (snow/dirt car)
-Toyota T100 w/ TDI engine (truck)

In reality this is what I would 'really' do if I could have 5 cars, though I could never see myself owning that many.

Five dream cars I would own with a major lottery win:

1) Mercedes-Benz 300sl Roadster
1957-63

2) Ferrari 599GTB
New, manual gated transmission, Le Mans Blue with tan leather.

3) Rolls-Royce Ghost
New.

4) Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta SWB
1959-62

5) 1989 Carrera 3.2
Which I already own and would ship directly to the factory for an open checkbook re-manufacture, so I could own a brand new 1989 Carrera 3.2.

Oh, and if I was able to choose my top 5 dream cars, I would have to have a place to keep them safe
