I was at a track day a few months ago at Road Atlanta and there were 3, 720s and they were all crazt metallic colors, orange, some bright blue and a green (I think) and they damn near look like spaceships in person, they sound pretty sweet too.

Track day in this (I didn’t drive).

The rules say you must be able to afford to maintain it.  I can't imagine what the maintenance is on a $300K supercar, for the rest of your life.

I would like to have my former Callaway Aerobody ZR-1 with Doug Rippie Motorsports LT5, back in my garage again. Sold it in 2003, when I was diagnosed with prostate cancer.

From a retired standpoint (only have to drive once or twice a week, and not even then if I don't feel like it), it would be an Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III.

Guess if it had to be driven more often probably a late model M6. Had a 640 that was an extremely nice daily driver, can't imagine what that car is like with a 5.0 V-10.

OP, mine is actually very close to yours - a 997.2 GT3.  I prefer the slightly subdued styling over the RS variant.  I'd have it in Mexico Blue (I believe there are two PTS Mexico Blue cars in North America), or white if I couldn't find MB.

My first Porsche was a canary yellow 1967 911S. I sold it because I could only afford to buy one. I couldn't afford to own one. Big difference. Today, I'd still get a chubby from it, but the economics have reverted to my youth. So, not gonna try to live with it as my dream car. I'll go with this...Attachment Attached File

I think a lot of guys are missing this.

I wonder what the maintenance and repair costs are for something like a first gen NSX.



Failing that, if I was looking for some kind of sports car, I think I'd be looking at a LHD converted R34 Skyline or a C8 Corvette.

Also with these considerations, I think the guys talking about Power Wagons and other truck type things might be on to something.

Any old truck with a Cummins swap or maybe a big body Bronco resto-modded with a new Ford 7.3L Godzilla would also be cool.

The wheel and tire combo on that Ram are way better than the ones on your current truck.

I think you've mentioned the possibility of upgrading to a new truck sometime soon. Use that one for inspiration.

I've been fortunate enough to own all of my "dream cars"......although what defines dream car seems to change quite often.....

First one was a 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix.....390 horse HO428 4 speed......black

Next was an E24 BMW Alpina B-7 coupe...…

Last was an E21 BMW Alpina B6 2.8l

Right now, all I'm lusting for is a 450SLC 5.0 …...it's not a matter of money, but finding the right one.....

Subaru 22B

Subaru homologation car, I have owned a few WRX's and currently have a blobeye (2004). So I know the in's and out's and relatively easy to work on, parts are plentiful as many parts commonality through the different subaru platforms.

Plus true all wheel drive so I can take her almost any where. She was indeed a true rally car. I'd run it in tarmac spec though and not gravel.
