TommyC Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Currently I drive a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 (no hemi, just a small V8). If money was no object I would have a lot of trouble deciding which of my large stable of cars to drive each morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael hurd Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Steeler Fan: There is a company selling an entirely new body tub for those cars, the tooling is original GM, and the bodies are manufactured with better spot-welding techniques, even delivered in E-coat, and at $ 10,500 Canadian, a very good buy. All you need is a front subframe and a good titled car for it's VIN tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def Leper Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I'm probably luckier than most in that I manage a fleet of advanced development vehicles, but we always have a number of comparative study vehicles that we drive for about six months, then disassemble. I'm expected to drive my fleet vehicles so I gave up my personal car years ago when I started the job. Right now I'm switching back and forth between two of our advanced driver training vehicles, a 2004 BMW M3 and a brand new 2005 C6 Corvette. I'm not a fan of Corvettes but this one is the best I've driven. I did drive the previous Z06 and really hated that one. It's so powerful and unforgiving that I really don't think it should be sold to the general public. Definitely a car that can get you killed in a hurry. If money were no object, I'd pick one of those huge diesel motor homes like the golf pros own, pulling around a nice little Mercedes for when I park it. And yes, I would install a nice set of Khorns in it. If there was any single car I owned and wish I still had, it's my very first car, a 1955 Chevy convertible.

Thanks Michael, but sounds like too much trouble for someone like me who has no mechanical knowledge what so ever.[] Actually I've heard a rumor Chevrolet might steal a page from Ford and bring the Camaro back and make it look like the late 60's models.

Thoriated_Tiger Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Right now, an '05 Mazda Rx-8. Before that, a Miata, before that, a 1-st gen Rx-7. I luv mazda [] If money were no object? Uh.. I can't limit it to one car! In no order at all, had I the cash: 1. Ferrari 275 GTB/4 2. 1994-5 Mazda Rx-7 (The FD3S, the 3rd gen of the car) 3. 1967 Mazda Cosmo (Mazda's first rotary car, worlds first twinrotor, and it was a pure sportscar) 5. Another '94 Miata, like I had.. miss her badly. 6. An un-molested, rust-free 84 or 85 Rx-7 GSL-SE.. chances of finding these are getting slimmer each year. The list goes on, for pages, folks.. I'm a petrolhead [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD1032 Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I drive a '97 Honda Civic (actually my dad's). It's not a bad car, got a good 37 MPG last time I calculated, but it needs a new clutch quite badly and the radio's dial is a little weird. If money was no object, I have no idea what I would drive. All I know is it would need to be cool, shiny, red, and have lots of muscle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easylistener Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I drive a 4 door 99 Grand Prix GTP. I have all kinds of cool stuff done to it. If fact I just raced a new Yam r6 motocycle and just crushed it. The kid pulled up next to me after and said nice car. I let my kid roll the window down in the back and wave high as I then speed away and the kid had a very pissed look on his face. If money was no object I would use the money and built my own car. That is the only way to get what I realy want. But if I had to buy a production car, it would be the new Lamborgini (sp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the volume dial on the radio is a little weird...must be a Honda thing.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnysal Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 What do I drive? I am mostly driven around in a Nissan Pathfinder, I have a BMW 330i that my wife uses and a 1964 Ford Mustang fastback for an occasional weekend outing. This would be one of my cars if I could afford it slow but tasty! tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
