What's in your dream car garage?

[Dirthouse]

List up to 10 vehicles you'd have in your dream garage. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, tractors, ATV's, etc...
Give a reason why and list a few mods you'd do.

-----------------------------------

I tweaked my list 1/1/15

1) '99-'02 S15 Silvia (Brilliant Blue)
-- I've always loved the S15 and have considered it a drivers car as compared to the computer dependant R34 GT-R.
--Built VQ35HR swap, full suspension, Nismo aero kit, Recaro Speed S seats

2) '02 Mazda RX7 Spirit R Spec-B (Titanium Grey)
-- Another drivers car. This is the last year of the FD3S and is the track spec package.
-- RE Amemiya tuned stock port engine, Konis & Ground Control coilovers, urethane bushings

3) '65 Hoonigan HOONICORN Mustang
-- AWD, 410cid V8... what's not to like? Look up GYMKHANA 7 on YouTube and you'll understand.
-- It's already modded beyond awesomeness

4) '14 Porsche Panamera Turbo (Dark Blue Metallic)
-- A classy daily driver for the missis
-- Wheels and tires, blow off valves

5) '12 Xterra Pro-4X (Black) (last year built in Smyrna)
-- Just because
-- SAS'd, Titan V8 swap, full armor

6) '16 Titan Diesel (Black)
-- I'm gonna need a hauler
-- probably a programmer and tires
(PIC WILL SHOW ON JAN 12th. The debut at the NAIAS)

7) '68 Mustang fastback (Highland Green)
-- The missis ideal 'Stang (she likes the Bullit and Shelby GT350)
-- IRS, Coyote V8 & Tremec T56 Magnum 6MT

8) '78 280Z (Copper Metallic)
-- I've always had a soft spot for the S30 chassis and want to build one some day.
-- Stroked to 3.1l, OS GIKEN DOHC cylinder head, custom twin turbo setup, Arizona Z Car full suspension, Full rallye style cage

9) '46-'47 Hudson Truck w/ the Hornet I6 (Black)
-- An ex-girlfriends grandfather had one in imaculate condition.
--Leave it bone stock/ restored

10) '15 McLaren 650S coupe (Aurora Blue)
-- It's sexy
-- Stock

[Prime]

1) 67 Black On black Mustang convertible.
- Complete Coyote based restomod

4) R34 Skyline AWD Twin Turbo

5) 68 Bronco
- lifted to hell and back
- Street capable rock crawler

6) Land Rover Defender 90

7) GT-R. Duh. It can race the 997 around the Nürburgring.

8) Any iteration of Porsche 993. Gotta have the whale tail. Dem hips tho...

9) My Fox Body Mustang
- Project T-Top Terminator
- already have the IRS
- needs a 6-speed gear box
- and a 4.6L supercharged Terminator engine from an 03-04 Cobra

10) I can honestly say, my Truck
- I'm super happy with it and even if money was of no consequence, I'd still be building this thing. It'd be a lot more crazy, but it'd still be here.

 

[gamecock257]

This is incredibly tough to list only 10...

No particular order and not including my Xterra

Ford Bronco (1st gen)
Probably leave it stock. Factory hard top if I want to drive in inclement weather. No doors and a bikini top for the nice days. Maybe a very mild lift with some 33s, possibly a front bumper and winch, but keep it clean.

Toyota Supra (mk 4)
2Jz what more needs to be said? Gun metal gray, black wheels. I would swap to a huge single turbo and go for massive horsepower. Far from stock

Pagani Zonda F convertible
I like a lot of exotics, but something about this one makes it more special to me than a Ferrari or Lambo. Carbon fiber. Stock.

2015 KTM Superduke 1290
Wicked fast and sinister looking bike. It's arguably king of the street fighters and street fighters are my favorite type of bike. Maybe an exhaust, don't think I would need much else.

Cadillac Coupe de ville (65-68)
Old school cool. Blacked out and slammed on white walls, you know the look.

Chevrolet Corvette z06 (C6)
Not the most impressive Corvette by any means. I loved the way the C6 looked since the first time I saw one. I still like naturally aspirated american muscle too, and the LS7 is mean. Most likely atomic orange in color. Probably leave this stock

2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
I would need a truck, and since I don't really have a favorite engine in any of the newer diesel trucks, I'm going with the Silverado based on looks. Duramax Diesel and Z71 package. Probably pewter color. Lifted enough to clear 35" Mts. Steel front bumper and winch.

1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429
I'm a mustang fan, and the Boss is a legend. Candy apple red. Obviously stock

2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra
Mustang fan as I said. I had a 04 mach 1 and I love that body style. Sonic Blue in color. Kenne Bell supercharger. The whine from that KB would be addicting.

BMW M5 (E60)
Realizing I didn't have a family car on this list, I'll just include this off the top of my head. 500hp V10, get your groceries in a hurry. White in color with black wheels. Otherwise stock.




I left a lot off this list and some of these would inevitably change if you asked this same question a year from now.

In no particular order:

1. '71 Skyline GT-R -- Weekend cruiser

2. '72 Datsun 240Z restomod with an RB26DETT swap -- for hunting ricers

3. ICON 4x4 BR Bronco -- Around town daily driver

4. Land Rover Defender 90 -- kitted out just like this one

5. My current Xterra -- fully modded, of course. We ARE talking money no object, right?

6. 2014 Nissan GT-R -- In this color with bronze Volk Racing TE-37 wheels

7. Singer built Porsche 911 964 -- two pictures doesn't do it justice

8. 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi -- I would name her Christina and she would always be "Dirrty"

9. McLaren MP4-12C -- I know it's been replaced by the 650s, but for some reason I still favor this one.

10. AEV Jeep Wrangler JK Brute, 4-door, SRT-8 -- everyone needs a pickup truck every now and then

It was harder to choose ten cars than it would be to choose two. If I had to pare it down to only two, it'd no doubt be the GT-R and the Brute. But choosing just ten of the hundreds of cars I've fallen in love with over the years... that's tougher. Ten left me no room for American muscle cars or classic Italians...

 

[robcarync]

I must not be a car guy cause I can't list 10 LOL...I have never been too attracted too exotic cars, mostly because I know they aren't realistic...

but...

1) My 2004 Nissan Xterra...I would just SAS it and love never breaking another tie rod adjuster.

2) 1995 BMW M3. Always loved the mid-90s E36 BMWs. I used to have a 1995 318ti, but 4 cylinders just doesn't cut it.

3) I have always liked the 3rd generation Camaros...Late 80s early 90s. IROC Z would be cool.

I would sell the other 7 in my 10 garage to have more mod money to mod these!

 

[Dirthouse]

Cool lists so far. I know that a strong majority would have at least 30 cars in there garage >cough *WAREHOUSE* cough<, but then we'd all look insane and not have a life outside of cars.

[bigjim247365]

let me show you my automotive harem.

1. 1986 toyota corolla GT Apex (ae86)


2. Nissan Skyline GTR 32 (BNR32)


3. F-body Trans am.


4. Mitsubishi EVO V


5. old school Fairlady Z


6. Nissan Sil-80


and like 50 other cars.....

 

[Muadeeb]

am I the only person that does not even have close to a list of 10...

Nope, right there with ya. I have about 5 or so that I can think of.

 

[NismoFire]

1. A VG33 XTerra that doesn't leak oil. Mine w/ 5.10s front and rear, locked front and rear, 35s. No SAS.

2. A VG30 Hardbody that doesn't leak oil. Suspension lift, 35s, re-gear to 5.10s front and rear. No SAS.

3. 1998 240sx w/ SR20DET swap. Black, of course.

4. 1970 SS 454 Chevelle w/ '71 rear bumper/tail lights (because let's face it, Chevy screwed up when they did round headlights and square tails in 70, and screwed it up again in 71 with the square headlights and round tails). Red w/ black stripes.

5. 1978 Trans Am. Yep, Bandit style. Black and gold. 403 6.6L instead of the stupid small block that came in it. 9" Moser rear axle.



I only have 5. Never had a desire for all the high end sports cars. I love the look and sound of a GT-R, but I wouldn't want to own one.

//still want to get pilots license

Notice that all these things except the ZR1 and the Super D are about going very remote places. The ZR1 is just a blast to drive and the Super D goes upside down!

A fellow 911 enthusiast, and a 993 at that. That makes you a connoisseur.

I also really love that Ringbrothers Chevelle. Pity I had no room on my list for it. If they'd done the same thing to a '67 GTO hardtop, I would drop the Fairlady from list.

The 993 is far and away my favorite also.

I don't know, that new Cayman gt4 is pretty sweet.

Hmmm - the dream list I would have a hard time narrowing down. Here are the cars I've had and fallen in love with: (I've been around a while):
First two pics are exemplars

1) 1971-72 240Zs. These were the first cars I modded, starting with my Dad when I was a teenager for the first one. Had several over the years, would swap in the 280 block and keep the 240 head, sh*tcan the hitachi carbs and replace with sidedraft webbers. Urethane bushings all around, handled like a go-kart (not so great thing towards the end as I got older)

2) 2002 Subaru WRX. Loved this car, except for how cheap the plastics were inside

3) 1996 BMW M3. The E36 was the best handling car I've ever had the privilege of driving. Only sold it because after a certain point, even doing it yourself, repairs cost waaaaaaay too much. Last straw was $300 for little brass gears to fix the broken electric seat... actual pic on this one

4) Terra. I miss her terrably...(thank you, I'll be here all week)

5) Suzy the S2000

Now, the ones I don't have but want:
GT-R, one new, one old
Tesla
Jeep Brute
1974 Pantera.

I could live with those.
