Limenine9r Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I've always dreamed of a bandit T/A like this '79 400 4speed ... driving my '98 Z28 is a dream - paid cash for it, 0-60mph @5.4sec, gets 22mpg too, so until I stumble into lottery $$$$$ - this is my dream 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 there are a few: first and foremost...if someone is just giving me a car and it can be any car that's been made, but i have to keep it and drive it..(not sell it ever)Cadillac Sixteen, over 1000 horsepower, 35 mpg and just oozes class, and I can only imagine how beautiful that v16 sounds when you stomp the gas pedal into the carpet...Dream car from my childhood....Lamborghini Countach circa 1989... care of "rumble in the bronx""dream car" I'm actually planning on purchasing...83 Delorean DMC-12 black interior and 5 speed... if i can find one decked out in BTTF part 1 movie prop, then that will be a bonus.The next car I plan to buy from a dealer...Caddy XLR, Red or Black, and -V if I can afford it.There are plenty of other cars I'd love to have, and one I plan to build. (once the eldo goes kaput, I'm dropping the body on a corvette, gto, or camaro chassis so I can have a RWD, LS powered Eldorado with a 6 speed manual.)Might come out something like this... but in a better color.

TSB67 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Dream car from my childhood....Lamborghini Countach circa 1989... care of "rumble in the bronx" I went for a spin in one of those once. Thought it was an 84 but it had the fuel injection. It was an absolute junk car with a sweet sounding engine. Put a bad taste in my mouth for all things Italian as style-over-quality.I recall making a clay model of one in grade school art class though...

CBBaron Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Always loved the simple small sports car. Lotus Elise and more recently the Exige have seemed to exemplify that concept.Though Im not sure I could stuff myself into one.

Scruit Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I wanna get a Subaru Legacy 3.6 and pay a custom shop to turbo it. That would have to be an EPIC clutch in that, all that power and AWD would be stoopid fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "fast" cars wouldnt keep up with the average economy car today. Huge vehicles with big V8s that put out under 200hp. I had a '78 Electra with a 350 with about 185hp. Comfy big boat, but not fast. Loved that you could fit as much in the trunk as a small pickup Similar to thisCraig Edited January 17, 2013 by CBBaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't tell you how much power it had, but it was plenty fast. All I remember is that it had a built Olds 406 motor. The choke wasn't set up right, so it wouldn't start when the temp dropped below 32*, which was perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
