Too many too pick. Always wanted a 57 Thunderbird (red and white) or a 60's Mustang. Was never a big Lamorghini fan, but would trade me left one for a Gallardo

If I won the lotto and had enough left over after the divorce, I'd have a MkII Jag and an E-type.

Divorce would be necessary as Mrs Pergau's plans would not include classic cars.

I've changed my mind. Watched Miami Vice last night. Don't know what Ferrari Colin Farrell was driving, but it was unreal.

Did the decent thing and took it to a multi story car park just so we could hear the noise........whole film is basically car porn. Savage white 6 series BMW in there too.........

Has to be the Buggati Veyron for me. Limited edition car, they lose over £4mill on every one of these babies!

Top Speed: 248.5 mph / 400 km/h
0-60 mph: 2.7 seconds :twisted:
Engine: Quad Turbo W-16

Production costs = £5,000,000
Reatil price = £840,000
Over 1000BHP and 0-60 in under 3 seconds = Priceless!

I suppose I have to agree with you Richard but I felt that the Bugatti was just too good (I'll even use the word awesome!) to even dream about

Must be the '71 barracuda... fastest car around in it's day. Little too much like the Trans AM though, cool car all the same.

You'll recognise this if you've seen iRobot. Just a concept, but still very cool.
