I am going to put cars I theoretically could own someday, cuz dreaming too much ain't my thing.
1. Honda Civic Hybrid - good drivability, good on the environment, don't need anything fancier for commuting.
2. Acura MDX - one of the only SUV's that doesn't make me gag, b/c I personally hate SUV's and all they represent (lack of performance combined lack of practicality)
3. Dodge Ram Hemi - now that is a mean looking truck that rides quite well and can tow a crapload.
4. Audi S4 Quattro - for winter driving, I would also put some winter tires on it of course.
5. AMC Gremlin - Green - now that is a fun car, especially for derbying. It is the car that tries hard and loses everytime. And i would feel bad about bagging the **** out of it.
That's it. Those are the cars I think it would be fun to work for. If I was rich enough to afford the cars others mentioned (I know it is only a wishlist), I would buy a plane or helicopter and fly everywhere. And also get a ducatti 999, just to hump a bit.

Ok heres my list....hmmm a couple of these won't be attainable tho...and the first one is not street legal for sure
1) Mazda RX-792P - i think it looks way better than the 787b, plus the 4 rotor engine would be a killer on the street. (i geuss my ultimate race car)
2) 2002 Mazda RX-7 Spirit 'R' - the newest 3rd gen, the only problem is that its not available here
- I geuss then it would be a '95 RX-7 which would be attainable - I'd have it modded to large single turbo, putting out about 400 - 500hp tp the wheels
3) BMW M5 - I wicked car to autoX in. even though its on the heavy side, it still has wicked handling. even with the DSC, & TC, & etc etc. and all those gizmos off, it handles nicely.
4) Mazda6 - this one....I'd get the V6-GT model...and this would be my daily driver. a nice car putting out 220hp.
5) 2nd gen Mazda RX-7 TII (preferably an S5) - this i would have modded to a 3 rotor, and make it the ultimate sleeper
Well as everyone can see I'm partial to mazdas....especially those with ROTARY engines..... I don't care what neone says, this is the best engine ever made....
Now its time to get on with my normal life....of a 17 year old....trying to save up for a 2nd gen TII RX-7.......

The only real rules are they have to be street legal cars, and they had to be sold in the US by the parent company's. That means no skylines, holden, blah blah blah.

Nope, that wasn't me. I have always loved the 69 Camaro and I've seen some that were done with fuel injected motors like the LS1 and 6spd trannies, slammed like 3 inches and they are awesome. This is one of my favorites. I think it's got a fuel injected big block and a 6spd. And the color is exactly what I would have picked. Sweet.
