Dreamcar

For old school cool, my favorite is the BMW 507. http://www.supercars.net/cars/164.html
Favorite Xtreme exotic, the McLaren F1 GT powered by the oh so sexy BMW V12.http://www.supercars.net/cars/1178.html
Favorite dream car based on a race car, the BMW M3 GTR. http://www.supercars.net/cars/186.html Thank you homolagation!
Favorite dream car I could own, the BMW 850Ci. Check out this sweet video of how balanced the 850CSi's (the highest version of the 850) engine is, also has a picture of an 850. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=561986
And finally a car I will never be allowed to even drive, but would love to just sit in. The BMW Sauber F1.06. http://www.f1racing.net/en/photolarg...3533&catID=598

If you couldn't tell I'm quite the BMW fan. :p: If I ever did get something other than a BMW or car from a BMW owned company, the Lamborghini Miura SV in red with gold lower panel would be up at the top of the list. Back in the day before Lamborghini was owned by a Japanese car company (forgot which) then finally sold to Volkswagen/Audi.

Erm, McLaren F1 LM, Bugatti Veyron, Carrera GT.

More realistically S65 AMG. This car is simply one of the best ever (0-60 very close to being in the 3 seconds. This means you'll be beating Porches and Ferraris in style) and gob smacking luxury.
6 litres, Twin Turbo, 600hp, 750lb torque. Super quick, super comfy and super safe.

Just to show I'm not kidding about the Ferrari, Porsche and Lambo beating: http://www.rogerver.com/album/Califo...0Gallardo.html

The Gallardo got a very bad start off the line but the S65 would have taken him anyway...awesome car!

Super comfy maybe, but supersafe....depends at what speed, at 60km/h most cars are safe, above that it's pure luck.
But anyway, might be powerfull, with a 5980cc twin turbo it should be, but on track it's crap, the Ferraris and Porsches are way better. Plus, the Porsche 911 Turbo offers same comfort and luxury interior, lower price and better overall performance. The Mercs are never good track cars, they're all about comfort, so they are heavy and with very soft suspensions. They're more like showoff cars.

Sorry but the 911 turbo has no where near the interior luxury, technology or space. Does the Turbo have infared head lights? No. Heated steering wheel? No. Massaging seats? No. Ability to cruise and brake for you (and then accelerate again)? No. Space for a family? No. Voice controlled computer system? No. 5.1 Surround sound? No and so on. It can be garaunteed the s65 is a better daily driver and lower maintenece than the Porsche.
The S65 isn't a sports car though, its a super-sedan. Its not expected to beat the Ferraris or Porsches anywhere, but it does on the highway. You're making a sweeping generalisation too, they can handle, espcially if they are tuned by AMG. Sure the S65 wouldn't beat the Turbo on the track but I bet it could beat some of the lower models.
The track arguement is a stupid one anyway. You're not going to spend your time on the track, you're going to spend it on the road and on the road the S65 could get from A to B just as quickly as the Turbo. Don't get me wrong, I love the 911 Turbo, but overall the S65 is a better car.

Oh how I'd love to get hold of a S65. Titanium straight through exhaust, larger turbos, more agressive cams, reprogrammed ECU, aftermarket intake. If only.

I was talking about the SL65 here mate, not the S65, the S65 is a different thing. My mistake though, didn't read carefully.
Anyways, regarding the S65, if you like huge limos you can always get a Maybach or Rolls Royce and they beat the S65 at almost every comfort option.
But then again, I am still young and I like a car to be fast and agile to be able to do some track days(don't care about having any passangers with me ;)), not a yacht on the road ;)
But each to his own, that's why a comparison between an S65 and a Porsche 911 Turbo is not fair.

10 sec supra that handles.

Maserati MC12:slobber: :slobber: :slobber: Or Lingen Felter CF 427 TT not really a dream car....but pretty awesome

Corsa, one of the 12 built, would be fast and awesome, but I am not sure it's street legal, and even if it was, no where to drive such a car but on circuit unfortunately.

No the point is the S65 is cutting edge technology but blistering performace for a car of its size so its the best of both worlds. I'm young too, but if I can get the best of both worlds i'm not gonna pass it up. Its comparing apple and oranges.
The GT2 might take my fancy though. 530hp of mmmmm. lol.

Not street legal and you can only drive it when and where Maserati let you.

Edit: Exactly like the FXX, but that would make sense wouldn't it.

Well, for the price of those cars, the factory to tell you where and when you can drive your car does not sound quite right to me, but then again I don't have the money for such a car so I won't find myself in a position to feel misstreated anytime soon ;)

I considered buying one 5 years ago, but it needed much work and I had no time for such a project. The sound engine was as sexy as any I have ever heard. It melted my heart.

I have collected various MBs, Rolls, Porsches, Ferraris and one Lambo over the years.

Oh yeah. My first car was a 1975 E21 BMW 323i.with Alpina front spoiler :) Then I grew up not liking BMWs lol :)

I just finished restoring this beauty in the spring. Still needs some minor transmission work.

Smooth.

What sector do you work in to earn so much? If you don't mind me asking.

I'm suprised you didn't buy the S65 over the S550. Cause that thing is FAST.

I second that motion.

this sounds weird but, I really like mini's instead of a 50000000 Mp/h supercar...
If I could choose a dreamcar it would be this one
(and the funny thing is my sister has a new mini cooper s and a friend of her has
this car, a.k.a Mini jcw gp) 2000 examples of this car are made and he's one of the 20 owners in the netherlands :)

Sweet, that's a dreamcar you can actually own one day :)

2006 Subaru S204 40,000$-only 600 made.
