I realized that this was a 'dream car' topic; you see, I *am* going to buy a Delorean, whether used or special order (via third party, officially licensed).

Sweet. One question: what happens when you get it up to 88 MPH? Anything? :

Actually, the Delorean in the movie couldn't actually achieve 88 (assuming it's a stock engine, etc. etc.). The top speed is 85, it's a Volvo engine. One of many stupid mistakes on Mr. Delorean's part, but that adds to the mystique.

There are those who replace the engines w/ Ford engines and such; others (including myself, I hope) plan on the 'add-on' that allows it to go not 88 but 180 MPH.

Ive always wanted a Ferrari. Ist simply a dream Ive had a long time. I know there are better cars, but this is still my dreamcar.

Aren't those the cars that were pulled off the market for accelerating and going in reverse on their own?

 

[gamefoo21]

hehe sorry about that for some odd reason i keep messing up with that 5 i think 57 sounds better than 67 on some level probably.

 

[Gallstaff]

um no charokee's are the cars you use for offroading etc. Little square cars you can take of the doors and roof and windows n shit. I like em.

 

[yashiro]

hemi 'cuda. 'nuff said.

 

[Gear]

Why nobody wants to drive an audi TT? I also want to drive a mazda rx7, just to feel its engine.

...hmm an acura/honda nsx should be a wild ride, too

 

[Flakvin]

'Nissan Skyline GTR - R34 - V-Spec II' .......

There

 

[Falstaf]

Has anyone else noticed that the majority of the cars mentioned here are from video games? :auto

 

[vbt]

I noticed that too, but nobody seems to dream of "normal" cars like mine an "A-Class" 160 "Avangarde". It's a really great car

 

[Falstaf]

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that a studabaker?

Are you thinking of the Wrangler? As far as I know, the Cherokee is a Ford Explorer-like vehicle and the windows and doors don't aren't removable.

Now i remember! I always wanted a revamped US Postal Service Jeep. I'd have to move driver side back to the left, and get some seats in the back. What a trippy ride. I'll need to salvage one somewhere though.

No falstaff, a "A-Class" is a MErcedes car here is a pic :

 

[Falstaf]

Sorry. Not up on my Benz recognition.
