ur gonna die when your rich lol :P


as for me ...

1. BF GT-P with quad turbo jus coz it'd be funnily stupid.
2. BF Typhoon lightened to the ИИИИ house with more power pumped into it.
3. A nice tricked out 05/06 mustang.
4. HUGE house with a drift/race track.
5. quit my job in the best/funniest way possible... and live off the interest.

65 Mustang Coupe/Convertible?? would strip it and modernise the interior while still keeping it semi original, bit like Pimp My Ride style for anyone that saw maddy mustang. Throw in the running gear out of something more modern and that would be my everyday driver. would love to shave the door handles but have heard its illegal over here, spewing, but if you got that much money??

Ah, I run this fantasy many times a week in my head, and the cars are always changing. As a rule I wouldn't get more than 4 cars, so here they are:
  • BF Typhoon (sent to APS for a little under-bonnet attention)
  • GT40 for shoooow
  • Peugot 206cc as the runabout
  • Keep the AUII XR6 cause it'll always be special to me

I have always wanted an AMG SL55 too but that can wait till I'm old haha :

Firstly, I'd buy an XR5 Turbo for the other half to shut her up
Then for me, something like these:
Porsche Carrera GT
Ford GT
BF Typhoon
Dodge Viper SRT/10
Ford F150 Lightning

Plus a fully customised RTV Ute set up for work......OOps well I don't think I'll be working too much if the BIG ONE happened. Oh well, I'll just give it to the "old" boss!!

Oh to dream..... :evil_laug

Don't forget our new house closer to you guys!!

My choices:
XTGT in Green.
Harley trike.
GTS Viper (and soup it up to beat Brute6's one!!).
1934 Ford Tudor hotrod.
one of those big Hummer 4x4's, but one of the fancy ones, not the army version.
maybe a Star model Customline.

I'm sure there's heaps more, but that's all I can think of now.
