BOSTON TO L.A. 3 DAYS, WHAT CAR WOULD YOU TAKE?

I would take the Honda Odyssey out of the cars I have. The Ferrari is too flashy to make serious time, the Infiniti is less comfortable, the Tacoma is just oo slow, and the Ginetta is way too scary.

E-class. Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. Literally.

 

Between my Viper and 05' Mustang, I would take the stang. Great gas mileage and has NO problem with high speeds, even for a stock car.

 

I have one car only, so that would be it : 997 C4S.

Ideally, id do it in a Daytona.

 

I would fly. Its not that I dont like road trips, I just like flying more.

 

between my 2000 chevy malibu and my 2000 chevrolet malibu, i'd have to go with the "chevy" malibu.

 

No hesitation, I'd rent a 2007 Escalade with full NAV/DVD/OnStar

Yep a rental with free miles!

 

Ferrari F575M either that or a Mercedes S65

 

A Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI - they have a 623-mile range, they have 310hp (and 553lb-ft) and they're immensely comfortable. The perfect car for such an opportunity...

EDIT: top speed is only 130, which could present a minor problem. But it could cruise at 100 for literally ever, so that'd make up for it.

 

I did Raleigh, NC to LA in 3 days in a Ford Explorer and wanted to kill someone by the end of the trip.

I'd do it in a Lexus LS460 if I had to.

But I'd rather ship the SOB and hop on a plane.

 

SL65

 

Is this a car board or what ????

 

The M5 would be my choice..

 

BMW M5 or Ferrari F430 Spider.

 

If it had to be a car that I possess, it would be my '07 Chevy Tahoe.

Otherwise, a Maserati Quattroporte would be perfect for the job.

 

I would take my 02 Civic. It just seems to cruise smoothly at 100mph. The rest of my cars I have are my project cars which im still working on them. They always have a special at Avis.com for a Mid size car, 3 day rental (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) for $45 bucks plus tax and unlimited mileage anywhere in the US. The only problem is you have to return it back to the original spot you got the rental.

On second thought since it would be more comfortable I would take my 06 Acura TL. A lot more room and more pick-up than my 02 Civic.

 

In either case you are going to spend your life's savings in gas, or haven't you heard?

 

(996 or 997) 911 turbo.

Brutally fast and effective long distance cruiser. Works like a hose. Supercar performance with no drama. There is no gap too small in which to pass.

Some might say its small-ish gas tank is a minus, but I say it just gives an excuse to stop and get out and stretch my legs.

 

Not a good idea. Both of those will beat you to death and eat you out of house and home

 

Did you even read this thread? Boston to L.A. in a 911? Are you a masochist"?

 

Thank you. You obviously understand the problem.

at 14mpg, I'd have to call you something my upbringing won't allow me to do.
