Your dream car and your "attainable" dream car

[vanMould]

Absolute dream car: Ariel Atom
Attainable dream car: Ariel Atom

I am also dreaming about designing and putting a car of my own into production one day. Haven't made much progress yet though

 

[Narcolepsy]

I think definitions of attainable here seem to vary pretty widely (income on this forum probably varies widely). Leave CSL alone - a 335i isn't as ambitious as a lot of other people's lower ends (Porsches')

I don't know about Aussieland, but here in Ameriland M3's aren't out of reach. An E36 M3 could be had for the price of a new Honda Civic. And an early model E46 M3 can be found for the price of an Accord.

Of course, they're both crap cars.

Oh hell !! Presicely the same as me, and you're a girl !! Will you marry me ?

Attainable dream car: This is a rrreeeally tricky one, but I'd have to say it's probably E34 M5. Other options include MB W124 E500, Jaguar XJR and loads of others.

a second hand e46 (2003 vintage) here starts at AUD$70K (US$55K) and as I said before a 335i is about AUD$120,000 (US$95K)

a new e46 is AUD$186,000 (according to the BMW magazine) (US$146K)

Well, my dream car is my avatar, and that is always the latest Koenigsegg.

Attainable Dream car should be something like an M3, or maybe a R32 the first few years I'm working. Maybe I should try to get into some sort of private clinic for some extra cash for Italian Exotics, but I don't think anything like that is gonna happen.

 

[javi_up]

The car I love but will never be able to own is the Aston DB9

The affordable one is the Swift Sport, but since I'm owning one next week it's not a dream anymore so.... maybe Mazda Rx7 FD3s

/Currently, I can't afford an Aston. But I have it all planned out that I will be able to before I'm 30.

Forever a dream car:

^ A dark blue or black would be awesome.

Attainable dream machine:

^ In fact, I'll be realizing that dream in a couple of months. I'm hoping to get one in either Black, Yellow, Blue, or Red.

That is my Dad's C5 to a T, minus the optional side mouldings.

Attainable dream car: Aston Martin V8 Vantage $120K (it'll be pricy and i can prob barely afford to insure it but i can make it happen if i wanted

My no-chance-in-hell dream car: Koenigsegg CCX (forget it, never gonna happen, at least they sell it in ONE dealership in the USA

Anything in the $50-100K range is not considered a dream car to me, just an expensive car that i could buy if i chose to.
