What is your dream car?

I am very familiar with the Zymol line. I've got stuff in that league. There's stuff out there from some companies that's $2k for 8oz. I do mostly high end or exotics. Been doing some classic British cars since I'm in the local club. Got an early '60s Healey 3000 coming in the next month or so.

Perrone,

I use Zymol Concours on my cars, it was touted at one time as the worlds shiniest wax. Not cheap though, $200 for a little container. Awesome stuff though. It's worth it for high end show cars.

This is my dream car: '58 (with a '59 T stick shift) Vette - right before they went fiberglass...

Uh... Corvettes were fiberglass from their inception in 52-53 until 1984 when they went to SMC (sheet molded compound) the same stuff that fieros were made out of.
 
i have severely low expectations in a dream car. (Which means it'll probably be my next car) But I've always wanted:

A 1992 Z-28 Camaro

I've already stated my fast and fancy cars....

But if we are talking about power that will make on-lookers sh*t themselves in fear.... or that will cast aside the sea of zombies as I plow through the viral apocalypse... it would most likely be the Northern Irish Humber Pig armored personnel transport.

Sure a tank would be better, but that's not exactly street legal. Plus this has awesome storage space and large troop transport back doors for all my film equipment.

Have any of you guys ever actually driven those late 70's-80s vintage Camaros and TransAms you are drooling over? My brother sold Pontiacs back in the day, he used to let me drive his loaner TransAM with the Turkey on the hood. That must be nostalgia in your eyes, those were some really crappy handling, badly built Detroit iron. 60s era, I can see it. Once you get into the mid 70s and newer, they were pretty crappy cars although I guess the retro-cheese styling might have appeal for it's kitsch value? Same with the Vettes, my old boss has a really nicely preserved 77 Stingray. That care was a deathtrap as far as handling, although it was fast in a straight line.

Okay, since we are talking dream cars, why not the Bugatti Veyron? V16, 1,000 BHP, 253 mph top speed, four turbos? I would never drive it, I would build a house around it and just dust and polish it every day and set up church services to worship the sheer engineering madness that created it, because driving that car would make almost anyone kill themselves.
