What i really dislike about current car designs are the high waistline and badly shortened greenhouse. Look at the current camaro or Mopar 300 or all those belt-around-the nipples chopped&channeled looking monstrosities. Bring bach the low beltline and copious glass of, say, early '80s BMWs!! cn

<SNIP>But my dream car is a Porsche 911 Turbo. I love Porsche.
I have owned a few Porsches and raced them and owned a lot of other cars.

I would advise anyone to go out and buy a Porsche, a used Porsche is fine, whatever you can afford, even for a daily driver.

They are so well built (they cost nothing to maintain), you can take them to the track, run the $hit out of them, and drive them home.

I think everyone should own at least one Porsche in their lifetime, maybe more. :joint::peace:

Here is my 911 staging in the paddock at Willow Sprints, CA, Big Track

1971 Mercury Capri, this is one amazing vehicle. It beat out Jaguar's several year running No.1 import car title. It was manufactured as a semi-concept car in Germany to German engineering standards, then imported with left hand steering to U.S. Beautiful wood and leather interior full chrome metal bumpers and nice classic "Ford" lines accenting it's arrow dynamic exterior.

Mine was Dark sub-metallic Green The 6 cyl had been pulled and replaced with a souped up 2000 4cyl that loved to run high revs.
The ability to turn this car 90 degrees at high speed by downshifting while braking from 4th to 3rd and the power out by shifting to second and winding it out you could take a right angle corner at about 45mph. The drift was perfect, it never wanted to go backwards. It would always turn full sideways and reamain in a controlable slide that could be corrected even @ 65-70 mph.
Truly amazing car...... BtW it was on stock wheels with Perelli (G/T?) tires that had side tread all the way up almost to the rim.
They would roll under but never lost traction or rolled off the rims.

The speed and agility of this little screamer made it "uncatchable!"

My second choice is btw is the 76 Dodge diplomat police car. They are fast and agile and handle well too, just not quite as fast as that mercury =)
