Default Your Favorite Cars - Pics & Why...

I posted this same thread on FocusFanatics and made 20 pages before it died.

RULES: None! Just post a pic or two of your favorite car of all time and maybe a reason why. That's it!

I'll start:

VW R32
Because it's a total sleeper that has one of the best stock exhaust tones you will ever hear! Plus the dual center mounted exhaust is awesome!

Your turn!

The McLaren F1. I love it! A true driver's machine. Center position, just like a Formula car. Speed, just like a Formula car. Price, just like a Formula car. It was advanced for its time (1993-1998); the fastest street car for quite some time. I gotta have respect for that.

Don't I wish the VoX Amazon was mine! It's a show car built by a Swedish builder.... It was on display at a car show when I saw it and took those pics..! The company is called VOCKS, from Sweden. They have a few cars to their credit, including the 240 T6 kombi wagon. http://www.vocks.se/?p=viewgallery

Chevy Camaro SS (This is has always been my dream car.)



Cadialac CTS-V (Dream car before they brought the Camaro back in production. Now I heard that they are making a coupe version of the CTS.)



Aston Martin Vanquish S (When I saw this car in Casino Royal my jaw dropped. It is so beautiful, and I was sad when they crashed it.)

I agree. I also like the color scheme. I think this is one of the version of the Transformers package, but I could be wrong.

My most favorite cars. BMW e38, the first time I saw it was in Tomorrow Never Dies when I was little. Was quite in horror went Bond drove the car off the building. BMW e34, my uncle's brother used to own one and just fell in love with it, unforutunately it hit a deer and totaled it. Benz w124 was the most memorable car and first private car I ever sat in when I was a toddler(use to live in city and parents didn't own any cars). Also used to know several people that used to own one and build quality is just unbelievable. Benz W126 and W140 just like them for their huge massive size! I also find them very classy especially the W126.

Call me simple but I really like my car. If I had all the money in the world I would purchase a low milage version of my car and customize it to look a little like this. Black HD's on the front, etc.
