Everyone has 'em... Dream Cars. Let's say you have 5 spots in your garage and you want to build a dream car garage. What would you pick and why?
Here are some guidelines to make things realistic:
1) Can't have more than 2 supercars.
2) Must have at least 1 sedan.
3) Must have at least 1 sports car.
4) Must have at least 1 truck or SUV.
5) Must specify your daily car.
Have fun with this!

I'll play!
1) Honda Accord sedan (also the daily driver)
2) Ford F250 4x4
3) 24' enclosed car hauler trailer
4&5) two bays with lifts and full shop equipment.
When you have a nice shop, a truck, and an enclosed trailer you'll have lots of friends with nice cars that you can borrow for a ride and not have to make payments on and insure. It's kind of like having a friend with a boat!DKG999

You may not want one.

I would still drive one, though.I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

I just threw that one on the list for fun. Not affordable by any means; I will probably never own one.
So I'm going to change it to the following:
1. Daily Driver - '00 Nissan Maxima
2. SUV - '87-95 Jeep Wrangler
3. Sports Car - '90-'93 Mustang
4. Truck - Ford F-150
5. 2 Seater - Nissan 370zpolkaudio RT35 Bookshelves

Choice number one and my daily driver would be a supercharged Jaguar Vandenplas, simply because they combine the elegance of the best English craftsmanship and the sportiness of of an exotic in one beautiful package.
Choice two would be a Ferrari 599 Fiorano GTB in Rosso Corso over Palamino. These cars represent the finest aspirations of the Automobile as both a means of transport and as a work of art. Michelangelo would be proud.
Choice three is a 1936 Duesenberg Model J supercharged "Weyman Speedster". This Boat-tailed legend was the supercar of it's day, featuring dual-overhead cams and 320hp at a time when a model "A" Ford had only 25hp. Each car was custom bodied by a coachbuilder on a separate chassis, and the minimum amout spent on such a car was 15 grand in 1932. By comparison, a Model "A" could be had for less than 600.00
Choice 4 is a Hummer H-1 for no other reason than they represent the most prolific off roader ever sold to the American public.
And finally, I would have my old 1963 Buick Riviera back, fully restored, and cost would be no object in getting the job done. Once complete, she would reside in a place of honor and be pampered in ways that would make the wife jealous.:DThe Gear...
