Nissan GTR or one of the new Mustangs.

If I had to be wise I'd take a Honda Accord.

Someone had to post an F1 car eventually, so....

Williams FW19

but more realistically, this is my dream car :3

EDIT: but with fatter slicks on the back

I've had my Ford Fiesta for about 18 months now and it's basically my dream car. Though that isn't to say my dream has come true yet because I still haven't passed my driving test! It's been sitting on my driveway for a year and a half and I still haven't driven her. It's enough to reduce me to tears. So for me, it's not the case of owning a car that I dream of but one day driving one.

sorry to dragonx it up in here but

looks EXACTLY like this one, color and everything. But I'm afraid I'm gonna fuck it up because I get in near accidents every once in awhile and today I hit a median and now its making a rickety sound and I gotta get it fixed...

 :fingerwag:

after i saw the first fast and the furious that was my dream car but i've seen pictures since and it's way too much of a penis and i think it costs an insane amount too

something silver and sleek and i'd be happy

The Mclaren F1!

That's a Koenigsegg CCX, not a McLaren F1.
The CCX was, on it's original release, almost impossible to drive due to it's lack of a spoiler, meaning it had no down force.
On Top Gear, they tested the original CCX and even the Stig couldn't control it well enough to get a good lap time (he crashed it and wedged a tyre into the front grille).
After adding a spoiler and tweaking the chassis, it managed to set the fastest lap time until the Gumpert Apollo managed to beat it (but the Apollo makes people hate their eyes).

The McLaren F1 is far more expensive than the Veyron at around £2million (today's value), it has a gold lined engine bay and in a straight drag race, it'll out accelerate the Veyron, though it's top speed is a fair bit lower.
The Veyron also has more kit in it and it doesn't have that stupid driving position.

As for cars I'd have:
Aston Martin DB9 or V12 Vantage: If you think they're ugly, you have no soul.
Pagani Zonda Cinq: Imagine, "My car is made of carbodium!"... Seriously, carbon fibre isn't nearly strong or expensive enough, so they made a new material :/
Tesla Roadster: Based off of the Lotus Elise, but with different body work (like the VX220) and a battery powered motor that allows it to outrun the Elise with ease despite being quite a bit heavier.
Honda FCX: Seriously, screw electric cars, screw Prius'... Hydrogen makes more sense.
If you live in a country that relies on fossil fuel or nuclear power plants, electric cars are going to rely on those.
With hydrogen, you still need power plants to power the machinery required to split hydrogen from oxygen (hydrogen is most commonly available as water when mixed with oxygen), but because you can produce and transport hydrogen from anywhere, you could build a solar powered refinery in, say, the Nevada desert, meaning little or no reliance on fossil fuels or nuclear power... Plus, it's piss off oil producing countries that use their profits to build islands and such :]
GM Hy-Wire: I know GM is a failure and I know 90% of American cars suck, but the general idea was pretty intriguing.
The idea of having a car that can be easily converted from one kind car to another appealed to me as it'd mean you wouldn't be stuck with one car (though performance would remain largely unchanged between the different bodies due to them using the same power plant).

Also, Rockman, the Ford GT is pretty unreliable, so I doubt it'd even get five miles before something broke on it (it is pretty thirsty though due to it's engine being from the Ford Lightning pickup).
You could also mention the fact that the doors make it virtually impossible to park in a car park as they cut into the roof (not a problem on the GT40 as it wasn't built for such things, but the Ford GT is a normal road car).
As for the Jag in your post, I really hope that's a Knowles Wilkins or similar or it'll definitely implode, explode or fall to bits :/
I say they look more like german/caveman then asians.
The Germans are coming to beat you with clubs and spears!

That has to be the ugliest car ever dude.


However, I second Lamborghini Gallarado. I'm a traditional guy.

What is up with all the people posting those expensive sport cars? Is it because they're some kind of phalic symbol or something?

I picked an amphibious one because it will be useful in a flood

Google Images fails me again. Yeah the whole steering wheel in the middle is pretty stupid but what do you expect with such an amazing car. The Stigs the man haha.
