Given I am an adult (or at least pretend to be an adult), I have generally stopped aching for things I know I am unlikely to have. You know, the way you used to when when you were a teenager? For me it was the days back in the 1980's looking at Ferrari's in Road & Track and thinking.... "Some day".

So while it is good to still dream large, I tend to have goals that I think I can at some point achieve. However, occasionally there is something (or a car) that I truly wish I could find a way to have. Currently that is the Porsche 918...

How about you? What is likely outside of your realistic grasp, but you still want?

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.

For me, the same car that you choose, plus this one.

I saw the title of the post and you were the last to contribute, so I knew it before I read it

I am sure with a little more thought I could come up with another car, or at least a link to a video, but I would be happy with a C6 Zo-6.

I'd buy three cars from the 70s:

914-6, museum quality

crazy car for track days - 1977 IMSA Porsche 935

1981 E12 BMW 5-series Alpina B7S Turbo, what the heck make it a museum piece too

I'll take chuck's Porsches and add a 917. These cars never break, right?

For the purposes of this discussion, nothing breaks, tires never wear out, and fuel is perpetually replenished

I have more lust for cars that are obtainable over cars that completely unrealistic.

For example, my current lusts are the C6, C7, maybe a 2015 Stang, and the FFR GTM. My problem is I want all of those cars, along with many cars that I no longer own. I just have no place to keep them all.

In need of car.

I have to come clean. I came across this on craigslist today and I can think of unending reasons to hate this car, but yet I don't. I wouldn't call it lust, more like 30 years of wearing on me combined with a momentary lapse of taste.

Oh Lester, well played..

The only Type R that should remotely mentioned in this thread (even tongue-in-cheek) should be this:

I just got back from Oak Island yesterday............. fugh a car, I want a beach house......

Convertible C6 427... would look good under my beach house........

If I ever win a super, mega, lotto jackpot (tough since I rarely buy a ticket) I'm going to hire a team of ninja car thieves to follow Les around and steal any car he buys and replace it with a lovely vintage Ford Escort.



I would then find myself a nice Integra Type R, drive to Tampa, and Rev on Les at every light. I'll hit the V tech and totally leave him sitting there covered in respect for Honduh Power.
