Favorite Cars
What's your favorite car. For me, it has to be a 1969 Boss 429 and F12 TDF.

I can't pick one. But here's a list of my must haves:
Ferrari- F12 TDF, 488 Pista, 458 Speciale, LaFerrari, and an Enzo. While we're at it let's throw in an 812 Superfast as a daily driver.
McLaren- P1, Senna, 765LT, and a 675LT
Porsche- GT2RS, 918
Bugatti Chiron
I think a garage with all of those cars is going to be in the neighborhood of $18MM USD.
Nice list, yeah its def hard to pick just one car as "my favorite" there are too many good ones. SB'd for the 812 as a daily.
Mazda RX-8 R3 -
Nissan 370z Nismo -
Viper GTS 94’ -
Corvette C6 z06 -
Ferrari 360 -
Nissan GTR Nismo -
C6 z06 they're so cheap now, I think I'm gonna buy one. Won't be able to drive it in the city but just to say I have one and occasionally take her out somewhere nice.
La ferrari
Mclaren P1
Ford raptor
Porsche 918
Toyota Hilux
Tesla cybertruck
I wish hilux was available in America. My uncle has one and it’s just a damn good daily driver.
The Tacoma is the North American version of the Hilux. The cars are 95% identical, with the Tacoma being a little wider I believe.
There is a reason that the Taliban and ISIS uses the Toyota Hilux. Super reliable and cheap parts.
What's the difference between the Hilux and Tacoma? Are the engines and transmission the same?

Honda beat
Kind of hard to pick but here goes:
Mercedes GT 63 4MATIC+ 4 door Coupe
Mercedes in my opinion is somewhat doable in the future however if we are talking high end cars for say you make an MD and you have your “rainmaker” years then I would say the following:
Bentley GT Continental
Aston Martin - All most all models are amazing to be honest
These are honestly my dream cars and also my favourite car brands as well. If we are going super unrealistic and completely fantasy wise I am in love with the Bugatti Chiron (the original not he pur sport).
Chiron is pure perfection.
It's funny you mention Mercedes-AMG, as the power plant in Astons is an AMG engine and most of the tech is from MB.
I like the Continental GT. Always have liked it. However, I think the new Flying Spur is the one to get if you're going the Bentley route.
I did not know that about Aston engines that’s interesting. Also I think that being a younger guy I immediately levitated towards the continental however as I would get older I weirdly see myself liking the Flying Spur more.
Love the Bentley Continental, such a classy car. One of the wealthy exchange students at school owns one...lucky bastard. Also an Aston Martin Valkyrie would be a dream to own.
I actually like the Vulcan more than the Valkyrie just because it has more of the original Aston look to it. However, the Valkyrie does look sick and super unique I think it’s one of those supercars where you wouldn’t see often if at all (haven’t seen one myself) whereas I have seen Chiron, Veyron, LaFerrari, Pagani Huayra at car shows and one Vulcan on the road.
My half a million dollar dream garage is a lambo urus, Jaguar f type s convertible, Mercedes maybach and a Chevy tahoe. I’d mainly drive the former two with my wife driving the latter two. I’d only need a net worth of 4 million to spend that much on cars.
one of those is not like the others.
Interesting choices but I would say that the stuff you listed would be far more than a 500k garage. I believe an Urus is 300-400k alone with the Maybach being 160-220k if I’m not mistaken.
2002 Honda Accord
Edit: Fuck whoever slung MS for me liking what I like.
Maybe it was Milton.
Didn’t throw MS but I thought you were trolling lol. What is it about the Honda Accord that makes it your favourite car (genuinely interested not trolling)?
The first car I bought all the way back in High School.
SB - I like Hondas.
Aston Martin DB5 and Ferrari Testarossa.
McLaren F1
CLK GTR
Winner. The CLK GTR is an absolute space ship. Still stunning to this day
Pagani Zonda F and Land Rover defender open back 2005-2010
Porsche 964
Datsun 240sx
That was the one I was gonna mention. Nothing like a vintage Porsche. Classic to say the least.
Pretty boring/vanilla but just a Porsche 911 Turbo. Simple & fun.
That's actually a good pick, I'd opt for the Turbo S myself but still solid.
.
Unless it's an original 930 "Widowmaker" or a 993, I'm not going to SB this.
Outlandish dream car: Pagani Zonda R
Dream car: Ferrari 812 Superfast
Goal car: Porsche 911 GT3 (maybe RS)
Best bang for your buck: Porsche 911
Next car: Going to lease Toyota Camrys until I can afford a Porsche
The new Camrys look quite nice
Honestly, all these new cars come with all the bells and whistles that were luxurious 15 years ago. Back up cameras, sensors, heated seats, XM, etc.

Daily either 812 or Urus, entry-level semi-garage queens for me would be the LFA and 488 Pista, for hypercars I most like the Agera RS, the Regera and the Chiron.
In decreasing value order:
McLaren F1
Caddy CTS-V Wagon (In manual)
Lotus Elise
Buick Roadmaster (94-96)
1.8L NA Miata
Mazda B-2000/Ford Ranger pickup in manual.
1972 DeTomaso Pantera
..............
Honorable mentions include the 911 GT2 RS, 1970 Chevelle, 1968 Muira, 1967 Buick Riviera, Ferrari Daytona, 1964 and 1966 Impala, 1965 Mustang, 1955 Bel Air, 1970 El Camino, the new Superfast, 2010 Murcielago, pretty much any 1950's Cadillac, among others. But the Pantera is an absolute gem that a lot of people don't know about and to me is easily one of the coolest, most absolutely stunning, and unique cars a person could possible own. If you don't know this car and see my post, please take the 2 seconds to look it up--its dope.
It's a cool looking car. I'm a fan.
Porsche 911(993) - Singer model
Singer does 964 conversions (i dont think they do 993s at all?). RWB 993s are maybe what you are thinking of
thank you, absolutely right.
Also, put in there 996 Turbo model, best bang for the buck plus you get the mezger engine. 30-60k for a 3.8 second car
honestly im in love with my volvo wagon and id put a supercharged v12 in it like jay leno if i could
i guess i can... but i wont... but it's a sick car
If you can put a V12 in a miata (yeah, seriously, somebody's shoehorned an 80s jag one in there) you should be able to put one in a 240. I'd go with an LS3, personally though.
Which model do you have? I like Volvo, they're a bit of an underdog often being overshadowed by the other big automakers. Their 1980s and early 1990s models are solid and very fun to drive. Built like tanks!
G63 AMG 2020 version -- I'm on the wait list and due to come off in another few months...... paid 35K over sticker but it is what it is. The price i pay to look like an LA soccer mom lmfao
A “prospective monkey” buying a g63? What is your actual role?
Old account -- haven't bothered to change it and don't know what I'd change it to. Finished 2 year stint in IB. Own and run 2 businesses now in HNW advisory and telecoms industry
Audi A8
Aston Martin Vantage Roadster
Ford Mustang
Chevrolet Camaro
Audi A8 or S8?
It's got to be the S8, otherwise it's just a waste of a dream lmfao
Fuck practicality, F10 2013 M5 for my dream car. V10 with a modded hood to store all that HP. Realistic Future Dream Car: E92 M3. For a 2020 car, the 992 911 Carrera turbo S would be fun too. Shelby cobra if I won the lottery. 1970 SS Chevelle with a drop top would be cool too. I detailed a 350k version of one of these cars in mint condition as a kid and my God was it beautiful. However if there is one care I actually see myself getting before 30, its the E92 M3. I want to hear the 4.0 L V8 purr so badly. I love cars but I don't ever intend on spending more than 50 - 60k on a car. At a certain point is just too much of a liability. I want something drivable that doesn't make me cry if it gets a door ding. Firm believer in daily drivers only. If you cant have fun with a 60k car budget you're crazy.
Count me in on the 992 911 Turbo S.
E92 M3 & F10 M5 are great too.
I wouldn't take a 2013 F10 though, I'd rather take an LCI one so I think that's MY 2014/15/16.
Comp package a must on both BMWs
A man after my own heart. I legitimately think I would end up dead if I had any of those cars. I would absolutely drive them to their max and I don't see that having a happy ending.
Edit: Which one do you have?
I'm not a huge car buff, but I have some that I really like.
Normal/likely that I'll own: Honda Accord, Toyota Highlander
Luxury: Audi S7, Range Rover (I know Land Rovers aren't that well made, but I like the way it looks too much)
Supercar: Koenigsegg Gemera
If I wanted to feel like a good person, I would add some hybrids or electric cars but none of the models I'm familiar with really stand out
Look up the AMG SLS Coupe, its electric. Seems horribly impractical, even for a track car. But it would still be fun. I could never pay over 40k for a car where I couldn't hear the engine rev tho, which is why Ill never seriously consider an electric.
I’m actually looking forward to the gen 2 Tesla Roadster, from what I’ve read it gives top of the line performance for like 100k.
Acceleration 0-60 mph. 1.9 sec.
Acceleration 0-100 mph. 4.2 sec.
Acceleration 1/4 mile. 8.8 sec.
Top Speed. Over 250 mph.
Wheel Torque. 10,000 Nm.
Mile Range. 620 miles.
Thanks for letting me know about that model. It's a pretty nice looking car, and to me it has more style than Tesla cars
1998 Toyota Supra.
Honda NSX
Acura?
Yeah it was Acura marketed in the USA and it is today, but I basically mean the 90's version; my all time favorite.
Been a BMW fangirl now for a while. About to sell my few year old x5 (which I loved) and considering leasing a 3 or 5 series (live in NYC, so don't really need a car but would be nice to have).
I really like the newer M3 they released. I know people hate the grille but it's really grown on me. If I had the money right now and it made sense, I'd forsure pursue one of those.
I don’t mind the new grill but the old ones look way nicer. You said you were BMW fangirl, but have you looked into the Civic Type-r? Very fun car. With a bit of tuning you can squeeze quite a bit out of her.
I have not actually, but I'll give it a look. I just really enjoy the styling/interiors of BMWs. Have had a few now and just really prefer the cabins/finishings versus other luxury brands like Benz, Audi, etc.
You could also consider the M2 Competition.
M2 CS is where it's at
+1; reminds me of an instagram model who has an M2 CS
Lambo classic - so sexy and discreet
