What I'm building... XC GS Sedan, in any similar orange to mine (or mine exactly ), lowered at the front, Prostar Dragways all round, fats on the rear, 351, lsd, etc, etc. :

A Satin Black ZH Fairlane, lowered all round, same running gear as the XC

An FC LTD, full tint on lights and windows, same specs as per the 'lane. But ALSO make it a manual!

EL GT, strictly a manual one. Burgundy would be my preferred colour, but anything goes, really. No mods.

That's about it, really

Ok we can go crazy here but I think we should keep it to 5 cars. My dream cars are:

Aston Martin DBS
Ford GT40 2006/7 (Titanium Grey with optional Ford Racing 100hp kit)
1966 Pontiac GTO (389cu V8 (6.5L), muncie gearbox 4 on the floor and tri power option)
Aston Martin DB7 GT (2003) Atriam Blue
Ford Mustang GT500 (Red, Full options including interior ambient lighting and premium Shelby pack).

Yes I will keep my XR8. Would also really love a 1990's Aston Martin Vantage factory twin super charger 550hp.

I'll be happy when I have a '59 El Camino.... airbags, 60's lowrider style.... many other cars I'd like if unlimited cash, but this is something I am keen to own in reality

In unrealistic fantasy land, would like a 300SL gullwing... the real deal, nothing less, none of this nasty replica/inspired glass rubbish

Seems a strange choice, or do you mean the AC 428 with the Frua hard top or convertible body and extended wheelbase?

Realistic- VL SS Group A.

Unrealistic- 67 GT500, or 67 SS Camaro.

Not really into exotics, so they've never been my ideal "dream car".
