Default Cars you have to drive before you die

Hey, I'm new here and thought, rather than spend time looking over old threads, I'd leap right into the fray with my own.

What are the cars you desperately dream about driving? The cars you absolutely, positively have to drive before you die. They can be anything from supercars, concept cars, F1 cars, famous movie cars... anything?

I don't think I could choose just one. I basically want to drive every car at least once. Even the rubbish ones. It makes me appreciate the good ones so much more.

I kinda understand where hes coming from, you would compare the nice car to the other cars you have driven alas. It would seem better to you because you have driven not only the best cars. "Oh man it has so much more power than that Open astra!"

Mclaren F1 LM (in orange). Tried looking and trading it for my F40 and my recently-departed F50. Didn't work out. My neighbour USED TO own one, but that was before I moved in. images/smilies/sad.gif images/smilies/thumbdown.gif
