The first car I want to buy is a Scion TC with a 5 speed manual! Modify a little so I can rip it on the tōge a little, then I want to get my absolute dream car, an FRS/BRZ!! Then later down the line I want to own a RHD JDM car, don’t know which one yet tho!
What about you guys?!
Also the picture is a display of 86s and BRZs in Maryland!
The pink one.
I’ve wanted a pickup truck since I was a little kid. Specifically all black murdered out one. Now I have it - 2007 Nissan Navara King Cab with a camper shell and I love everything about it (except that it’s rusting faster than I can keep up fixing it)
What’s surprising to me is how much attention and compliments it gets from other people. I don’t live in the US but pickups aint that rare here either - granted most of them are more or less stock while mine is slighly modded. I have people coming up to me at parking lots asking about it, kids are giving me thumbs up when I drive by and my customers are constantly commenting on it. I didn’t want a big american truck as I prefer to keep low profile and not draw too much attention but apparently I just as well could have.
I’m currently on the lookout for a 90’s Subaru Domingo with the right specs. I might need to bite the bullet and partner up with an importer, though.
Maybe one day an R32 skyline.
If money was no object, a Lancia Stratos would be it. It looks so sick.
Pretty stoked about Aptera.
As far as cars that are currently available go, maybe the Audi R8.
The R8 is so cool. Understated awesome.
Jaguar XJ220 in the OG silver or British Racing Green
If we’re dreaming, how about a TWR XJ220s ? Gorgeous.
Sheeesh 😮💨
I have a few different categories of dream car:
Realistic daily: GR86/BRZ
Realistic sports/weekend car: C6 Corvette
Unrealistic: a brand new Porsche 911 GT3
Those corvettes are fast! The porshes look so nice!!
Audi RS6 avant.
Family wagon that can also hunt supercars with a few mods.
1976 Datsun 240z. I would want to give it all modern internals, but that body design is perfection in my eyes.
If I had unlimited money I would basically pull the engine and drivetrain out of a 5th Gen supra and cram it in there.
All I need is like 200k in cars, parts and labor then my dream can be a reality lol
Ya, I certainly have lusted for an old 240 tasteful modernized!
There’s a guy that has an LS swapped (shocker I know) 240z around here. He kills it in autocross competitions too. Usually first or second. And the madlad drives it to and from the events lol. He really hammers down.
That’s awesome, even though I think I’d stick to Nissan power :)
Yeah… My allegiance is only to JDM vehicles in general. I love Nissan but I have truthfully never been a huge RB guy. Like I have lots of respect for the GTR and the RB platform, but it just doesn’t tickle my nipples in any particular way.
Why from the zupra? Just grab the motor from a z4 it’s the same thing…
The one in the 5th Gen supra had Toyota engineers all up in it. So you get German engineering power with Toyota engineering reliability.
I know they are basically the same motor, but the supra one does have a bunch of little changes that the Toyota guys made.
And Frankly I trust the Japanese engineers with my cars far more than I trust the Germans. I like my cars reliable first and foremost. A broken car is slower than the slowest working car.
They unfortunately didn’t do shit to it. That’s all PR talk, the techs all had to be trained on the BMW motor. Don’t get me wrong its a performance motor and it’s an I6 but don’t feed into the “Toyota made it great” PR crap they pulled. It’s just a body kitted z4 at the end of the day.
El Camino SS. I’m flexible on the year, I don’t mind the boxy look of the 80s models I just want that sweet ute style.
There was a very good condition one for sale near me a while back for $4,500, but it seemed too good to be true so I passed on inquiring about it. Plus I don’t really have the place to put it or the spare cash to spend, but once I get a place with a garage you bet your ass I’m buying one.
Eventually when I retire to Brazil or decide to just abandon the US I’ll get one of those Fiat Strada’s and put a better motor in it. There’s tons down there.
80s, 90s, and early 2000s cars peaked in styling! 😎
1930 Deusenberg Model J
'59 peugeot 403 convertible
Caterham 7 SV. Probably one of the lower trims
Slow car fast rather than a fast car slow, its the way to have a good time
Nissan 300ZX, only car I’ve ever thought looked stunningly beautiful
The 300zx is one of Nissan’s coolest sport cars, besides the silvia ofc ;) . It’s a shame that the latest Z is almost corvette territory prices because of those damn dealer markups!
Lotus Elise in attention whore yellow
except I can actually fit in it. total dream.
Have you tried the Corolla XRS?! It has the same 2ZZGE engine from the lotus! Specifically look for the 05 or 06 models.
a Lotus is pure sex appeal and a Carolla is … well … a Carolla
8200 rpm redline 👀
