Just a fun thread to see what everyones next car will be. Not a dream car but the car you will get next. I am still trying to figure it out, but im leaning towards a Boxster, 944 turbo, or even a Karmann Ghia. Whats next for you??
Im currently checking on trading my 88sville for either a Fiero or Firebird T/A. I really want to build a Ferrari testarossa replica because there cheap an hey for about 10 grand were else are you going to get those great looks from?
A Ferrari... not really... realistically speaking I'd like to get a mid 90s Miata sometime next year to autox.
Either a 92-94 512TR 95 F512M 04 600SL or a 97 850Ci Not completely sure what and when yet. If I can find the right F512M I am going to try and stretch for it as much as possible, but I cannot completely justify a TR or 600 over investing at this moment, not to mention my few cars keep me more then busy and my pocketbook 'well abused'. If I can find a nice low mileage 8er in the right combo with good service though, I would not mind adding it to my small collection...
Opposite ends of the spectrum here... Either the Ultima GTR or the ISO Rivolta with...a major heart transplant. On one hand, I can build the GTR how I want to build it. A decent FI Chevy engine, 500+ HP. Every stage of build done the way I want it. New parts, none of this restoration of parts nonsense. On the other hand, the ISO is a pretty car, a sleeper at that, with 500+ HP also sounds nice. It would be a decent car with a modern engine and brakes, adding in a few new suspension bits...and it doesn't come in an arrest me now body work. Either way, whatever car I choose will use the same engine, and I can start looking at building that engine now.
This time I'm not messing around. I'm gonna go allllll out with my next car! Three words: TWIN ENGINED YUGO! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Cars currently on the radar screen: Bentley Turbo R BMW M3/4 Ferrari 308 GTB Lamborghini P250 Urraco Maserati 430 Mini Cooper S The GTB will replace my 964, and I'm going to pick something else up to play around with.
i need a "summer car" with air-con for our stupid climate, so i'll be looking at any cheap coupe that i can induce nipple-enlargement in. that thing got a hemi? did someone else post a fiat dino.... mmmmmm...
I know, I've brought it up. Spoken with several people about them and I think the biggest issue is that I probably don't fit without modifying the seat track. I want to get a look at one close up before I make a decision. The other cars I don't mind buying sight unseen as I driven them before.
I'm planning on FINALLY getting a Ferrari for my next car specifically a 308gtsiQV. I would like to keep my S2000 and add the 308 so hopefully that will be the case.
The next one isn't before a while. Well ... 2 years probably. I still have college to finish. But then ... mmmh. Will probably lean towards an M55 or something of the likes. A tad longer term, I hope to get a Murci and use it as a daily driver. Until my back is ruined. As well as my wallet.
Me too. A nice inline 6 XJR will be the sedan I will always keep around before setting my sights and my savings on something more sporty. Unfortunately, for me it takes a lil longer to get what I want! Sunny
Next car - 2007/2008 A working the system for an Alfa 8C. Where there is a will....guess I have to get another European assignment before I retire...
How about a red 74? And I think a Civic Si would be good as a first car... cheap, reliable, warranty, slick rally stick on the dash... I love that feature! I also think a Civic hatch would really throw everyone at school off... the Ferrari kid in a white Civic hatch! Ha!
I'll probably pick up an '02 Z06 next year. The price should dip to about $30k or below by then. I haven't owned a big V8 domestic machine since the mid-'80s. The Z06 seems to get so many things right - great power and handling, relatively modest weight, good looks. The only thing that slightly bothers me is the interior.
