My choice for the oxymoronic practical dreamcar, a S4 avant or a 5 series wagon, sport/touring of course. My dreamcar since I've been 7 is the F40, and still is. The 550 Maranello(old style lights) is a very close second.

If we where allowed two vehicles my second choice would be a Turbo Diesel (with ether boost) Bobcat Skid loader with a variety of attachments.

Many of you are really missing out on how incredibly fun these are to drive. A child can learn to drive them its so simple.

There are SO MANY attachments for them! Here are some

And wheels?! You would be AMAZED. Something for every type of surface, even solid ones. For example http://www.berlon.com/images/magnesiumtrack.jpg

Those things are cool. I've been thinking of buying one for years and doing sidewalk plowing in the winter, landscaping and construction projects in the summer. Not really a car susbstitute, though. Can you even register them for street use?

Dont think they are fast enough, max speed is probably 8MPH.

QuickDrive: Think of it this way. I would attach the ditch drilling "chain saw" and cut a your house in half, then attach the industrial size "carpet roll spike" and stab through your car. Afterwards Id chase you with the lawn mower attachment at 45 degree angle. all while popping a wheelie

Ciper,

No way man, I'd put up my anti bobcat force shield and there'd be nothing you could do.

From the few Mog owners I have talked to, have said they get about 16-18mpg, and less on the trails...

since im addicted to speed, turbos, and horsepower i would pick a corvette linginfelter(sp. :? ). it has twin turbos, 802 hp, and a 0-60 of 2 seconds, thats crazy. i dont like domestic too much , but its fast. second choice for an import would of course be a 2004 sti

Well, I could never choose, but here are a couple of contenders.

Pug 205 T16 GroupB car, 406 Pikes Peak hill climb car.

Or maybe an old FJ-40 Toyota Land Cruiser.

As for the Hummer, I lost complete interest in that when I read a comparo a few years back, where the hummer got stuck between two trees off road, and was pulled out by a Jeep TJ.

Audi RS4 (wagon of course, as there were no sedans).

Can I say a new Legacy 2.5GT? That's the only thing I'd consider replacing my current car with.

Nico I wrx u....I drove one of those Lancias..
LANCIA DELTA INTEGRALE....Biturbo...4 hundred some horse power, digital speedometer...when you turn the key on...it shows a 288 maximum that it can display. And I drove it till it showed that 288...and believe me, that didn't take long. It is the '93 champion car in Romania, Europe.

I would choose an ASTON MARTIN Shooting Brake. Not much to say about it. BEAUTIFULL

An affordable choice...Audi RS4

Even a more affordable choice...unfortunately only in Europe... Renault Clio Renaultsport V6 255. Central engine, 2 seated...everything racing.
Only arround 40000 $


We can go like this...for days...but let's get back to our Legacys :oops:
