I think if money was no object, I’d actually go for a mk1 Sierra cosworth rs 500 2 door model. Not a super car by any stretch but when I was younger they were the bees knees. |

The Lamborghini Countach LP5000 Quattrovalvole probably remains the best-looking car ever made. Since I'm unlikely to be able to fit in the fucking thing, let alone drive it, let's have something bigger like a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429.

- Ultra exclusive
- The last completely analogue supercar ever made.
- Amazing styling.
- Sports an actual F1 engine!
- Best sounding engine ever. I could hear the noise it makes accelerating all day long.

It's not illegal on race tracks and sections of autobahns.
But for me is not necessarily about the speed, it's the appreciation of precision engineering and quality craftsmanship, the excitement of hearing the sound of the engine, and the thrill of being in control of such a powerful machine. Still, I suppose that only petrolheads would understand that. |

Such a lazy presumption to claim owning a supercar masks flaws. I’ve owned 2 supercars so far in my life and I’m sure I will own more in the future. I’m not a petrol head and don’t know much about cars but I appreciate the beauty and excitement of owning and driving one. I passed my test late in my life compared to most (late 20s) and bought a supercar as my first car and used it as a daily driver for 3 years. The thrill of getting in it every day never waned.
If I could take any car now, money no object. It would be a classic Mer_edes gullwing, 300 SL is it called ? I could look at that all day and never get tired of it |

"Never seen the point of supercars. A waste of precious natural resources that is illegal to drive at even half it's full speed. Still i suppose that some people might need to compensate for feelings of inadequacy.
I’ve never seen the point in false eyelashes but I respect that some people like them and don’t think that people who like them are compensating for feelings of inadequacy. "

"... an original 1980s 911 turbo with the whale tail "
If you want original, 1975 was the launch year.
For me, the original McLaren F1 simply because it was designed and engineered without compromise or bending to costs, and is actually a watermark in automotive engineering.
As I'm a greedy bastard, the other side of the garage would have a Ferrari 288GTO just because I fuckin' love that car!
In the middle (did I mention I was greedy, right?) a nice Caterham, because, well just because. I had one, I will have another. |

True. There's an awesome video of a countach anniversary edition drag racing a 512 tr at Suzuka. It lost clearly because it had the rear wing on and the knob driving it had the passenger window open. You can hear the difference between the Ferrari's melodic tone vs the lambos throaty growl too

I had a 2009 Challenger SRT8 as my daily for 6 years, was an awesome car and a lot of fun "
Friend of mine imports dodges and he gets challengers from the scatpack versions for around 30k.
Also getting the new pick up which has the srt 707 bhp engine in it.
He does a lot of business in Germany.

I was fortunate to own one for a short time. Only an 8v. Engine rebuild suspension tweaked new bushes. Just after I had finished running it in I was taken out by a d*unk driver.
Unfortunately while waiting to get the money from the insurance company top gear did their report on them and I couldn't even afford to buy a new shell to re shell it!
Great car though. You could feel its rally heritage! |

You'll need a modified Toyota Supra V6 for that. They can be tweaked from the stock 300hp twin turbo to nearly 1k hp |
