My how times have changed, good grief... how you could tell somebody that's worth $6k with a straight face, no clue.

No title, no dash, and almost no car left either.

Doesn't a "parts car" have to at least have some..... you know, PARTS?? :eek:

But it's in stock.

Try to do that with a Gaylord Gladiator.

Apologies, I got a little too excited. Those look to be some giant Lucas beams. I've always been a bit of an automotive lighting nut, Cibié, Hella, etc. I some some Cibié Oscars about that size once, luckily I was able to sell them off before finding a rally car to stick them on.

I had a 1956 Buick Special four door Riviera hardtop. It cured me of the vintage car fixation.

Imagine this car with one less porthole and white below the sweepspear. It was like it was built on Mars.

I dream about motorcycles, not cars. Have missed my '84 Moto Guzzi LeMans III for decades. Missing the '97 Moto Guzzi 1100 sport injected that replaced it. And the last in line, a 2011 Triumph Sprint GT. Such lovely and cool machines. But in the era of cellphones and willful driver distraction ... suddenly more dangerous than I find acceptable.

Which led me to a modest but totally fun little ride. It cannot replace motorcycles. Still, has something addictive going on:

Speed is indeed not everything. IMO, perfect handling, great design and a slick 6 speed manual for the win.
Oooo what is it ? Ok I see the reply Mazda cool 😎 I’ve been looking at them definitely love the new design . What’s crazy is they’re prized by the youth for drifting and modifying. Their way over priced on the used side even the the original models that are basically junk are going for 6,000 more or less .

My other likes are MGB’s and Triumphs but I started looking at the BMW’s Z something’s can’t remember the model names but they seem to get good reviews and a bit more reasonable on price .

But as the title says , Dream which it would be . Lol 😂

48 million dollar price tag, this may be too expensive to even dream about.

Flying cars, why haven't they taken off yet?
