If Money Were No Object
What car would you buy? For me, it has always been the Aston Martin, exotic car performance with James Bond provenance.

A Ferrari for a sunny day car and a Porsche Boxster S as a daily driver.

I’ve had a 911 cab and a Boxster. I prefer the Boxster as a convertible.

I was shopping for another Boxster a few years ago. I found one and was about to pull the trigger..bought a motor home instead. I haven’t regretted my decision.

Before you spend your hard-earned money, I think they eliminated speedometers from their cars with the current offerings. Oh, they have a digital speedometer in the center of the tachometer, but a real car has a real speedometer. Weird, how one detail, even a major one such as this, can ruin the image.

I would upgrade my Challenger SXT to a Hellcat, and then try my best to keep my license. Wink

A friend's father owned one (you mean a 300SL roadster, of course), and he said it was a wonderful car. You won't be disappointed. Not only is it more comfortable than a Gullwing, it has a real IRS, as opposed to the swing-axle the Gullwing had. Much better handling, especially around hairpin corners.

The only disappointing thing is that you don't get to watch a girl in a mini-skirt swing her legs over the wide sill while getting in or out of the Gullwing. A highly-memorable image!

Ferrari 488 Spider. Ever since Magnum PI the dream car has been a t-top or convertible red Ferrari.

I think a Corvette would be a much better daily driver.

It's a concept vehicle, but it really exists, and with unlimited funds one could be mine.




Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

Nothing too crazy. Probably just a top-of-the-line Toyota Tundra, with all the fixings.

Or maybe an big (but non-dualie) upscale diesel truck, like a top-trim-level F350 or 2500.

I'd have a project built from either ICON or Ring Brothers.
