    yeah i'm fully aware of the lease to own process.

ANY one car. that would be my choice. and i'm sure that someone in the financial position to throw that kind of money around for a car, wouldn't really miss it too much.

    well i mean look at the ferrari FXX,you give them money and you never own it,you cant even take it home with you I think.
    yeah that's the reasoning i've heard behind it.

    and yes the FXX stays with ferrari, however the will deliver it to a track day for you to drive it, and then promptly take it back once you're done.

    I'd take the Scorpion by Ronn Motor Company. Why? Its a 3.5L V6 twin turbo putting down about 650hp with 6 speed manual transmission. Not satisfied yet? How about the full carbon fibre body? Still unhappy? Lets talk about 40mpg. With that much power!! Did I mention its a hybrid with Hydrogen Fuel Injection?
    Made in America, my only turn off.

    Jeep SRT8



    Why? Easy. Its just a perfect all around vehicle. Its roomy, fast, and can be driven in any weather.

    Sure I love lambos, Porsche's, etc. like the next guy, but I doubt I would enjoy driving it every single day of my life. I know Lambos and Ferraris have the worst blind spots ever and would suck to drive everyday. I couldn't fire up my LP640 to make a quick run to Kroger lol

    This:


    MY CHOICE : Lamborghini Revention

    WHY? : Does it really need an explanation?

    Color: See provided pic

    Interior: Stock

    Wheels: probably either stock or some HREs

    Exhaust: Something involving a couple of turbos.

    Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst:



    Sure, it doesn't look as good as the Pontiac G8, but it makes the most incredible noises. It has four doors, a proper trunk, you can drive it daily and be very comfortable, then you can stomp the pedal and love your investment every day of the week. I'd call in sick to work just to go driving around. Here it is on Top Gear, enjoy the noise.

    I'm tempted to change my original response. I don't think I could bring myself to DD a 69 Camaro, as much as I love them I would really want it to me my weekend toy just to show off in. I loved the VXR8 Bathurst since I saw it on Top Gear, I like the styling more than the G8 and the loud pedal is just crazy. I'd love the chance to drive one of these.

    Thanks, I agree with the '69 Camaro, it's so beautiful, but I wouldn't want any wear and tear on it. I know that I'd have a dozen cars in the garage that I'd never drive if I ever had the money, I think I'd drive a VXR8 or even a G8, it's a good everyday, with a bite.

    I would Definatly go with the Henessy Viper ACR.

    *Looks awesome, Side exhaust turns me on.
    *Pull up to almost anything at a redline, you win.
    *Amazing downforce, would be a killer track car for the weekends.
    *Twin Turbo's.
    *1000HP, 1100 ft/lbs, runs 2.9 0-60, Top speed of 255 mph, and one of the few cars that can spank the Veyron in just about every category.
    *The Viper series has been my favorite car line for a long time, and this car tops it off.

    Right now:

    2009 BMW M5. 4 doors, 4 seats, comfortable, V-10 with a 8,500 RPM redline. 500 hp. Handles well, looks good, and with the Meisterschaft exhaust system that makes the damn thing sound like a Ferrari V8.

    The sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt1_OKkZzp4

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Hands down for me would be a BAN III car with the 605 hp LS7. One of the baddest cars on the road. Year one took one of the coolest looking cars in history and gave it a modern suspension and power plant. The second I can afford a 100k car, I will be buying the year one bandit.

    Probably a 98 GTS Viper, or a new ACR. I can't really decide but they're two of the same model so it's ok.

    Reason? I want my car to just be me and a v10. Vipers have a ballsy feel no other car matches, it's so basic and simple yet the performance is amazing. I doubt I would enjoy anything more.
