On the coattails of the "vehicles you've owned" thread, I thought this could also be interesting. What is your absolute one and only dream vehicle? The one you'd love to own and drive daily if you could. Take the profiteering impulses out of the equation. That is, if your long-forgotten rich uncle offered to give it to you and you have no right to re-sell it.
Post a name and a photo.
This is mine:
2015 Land Rover Defender XS110

A bone stock 1993 Mazda RX-7 R1. Debatedly the purest 'affordable' sports car ever made. That is the sensible choice and I almost nabbed one last year....
If money was no object. Without a doubt, a Porsche 993 Turbo. These things are going for insane money now. Just an unreal sexy car, and so frikking scary and twitchy to drive. It's fast, but it tests the driver. And that's part of the fun.

I really don't get it. Traffic, speeding taxes and crazy insurance. It would be a let down having most of the nice cars on this thread.
I prefer used a to b cars that I can buy for about the same price I'd spend on a wedding ring.
Best words of wisdom I ever heard was from a motorcycle track instructor.
"There is a responsible way to be irresponsible."
There are some very desolate roads out there that these cars can be used on, obviously at the owners risk. But it all but takes the 'take out someone with you' factor out of the equation. Obviously you let off when someone is coming the other way.
Nobody buys cars or motorcycles like this, and doesn't test their limits every now and then. But pick an appropriate time and venue. And that isn't Macleod Trail at 2:30 in the afternoon.
