NOT FUNNY!

My first car was a '74 Chevy Vega GT Hatchback!

Weekly fillups: tank of gas and quart of oil.

And we bitch about oil leaks. Sheeeeyaaat.

Lovely thread!

Real live:
1. Daily drive: 997 (S is fine too)

2. Minivan (I know, but that is reality)

3. Would like: Audi S8


Dream world as of today, and will change soon:
1. 997 TT: daily drive

2. Audi RS8 (if it will ever come): cruising the longer distance

3. Aston Martin

4. Donkervoort: for the beach days

o, **** the garage is already full, so the minivan is outside.............

Yup, I was about 10 when my dad had his orange Vega, we had to push start it most of the time, so parking on a hill was best practice.

Oh God! Stop... Christ, you should've warned me... took a sip of coffee, read that list, blew the coffee out my nose laughing. Damn.

My vote for "Instant Classic"!

1. Ferrari 275GTB

2. Lamborghini Miura SV (whoever mentioned worshipping this car earlier was dead-on)

3. Citroen 2CV (family/cargo hauler)

EASY:

Boxster S

997S

Cayenne Turbo

Maybe, I'd nix the Cayenne and just get a toyota SUV so I can park it anywhere at night and not worry.

Possible dream Garage:

1. My 95 Pathfinder w/ 2005's engine and tricked out interior for snow/family/playing outdoors

2. a 993 classic sports car for track and fun (would love a Ruf Turbo R but any will do)

3. Infiniti M45 sport as daily driver

Fantasy garage

1. Cayenne Turbo (daily driver that can do it all and wife loves them)

2. 959 - classic sports car for looking good

3. Carrera GT - modern sports car for tearing it up while looking good.

At my age those are classics

There are so many great cars out there it's really hard to choose just 3 but here goes.
Porsche C-GT
Pagani Zonda
Cayanne Turbo for the wife and kid\dog haulin

If I found some extra space in the garage a Gallardo and 997TT would top it off.
