The integra in the photoshoot thread made me start this :lol: Anyhow if you could have any car and money grew on trees, what would you get? Don't bring trucks into this, I think it's obvious what we would get lol.

When I was younger I really wanted a Saleen. When it came to mustangs there were at least 5 different models you could get, each superseding the next. At that time (2001 or so) it went something like this from crappiest to best.

[*]Mustang (V6)

[*]Mustang GT

[*]Mustang Cobra/SVT

[*]Mustang Roush

[*]Mustang Saleen S281

[*]Mustang Saleen S281-E (might have came out a little later)

They had completely different body work and interiors than the regular GT and had superchargers and were rated over 400HP, think the E was hitting 500. Of course now that the GT500 is out, saleen keeps a bit under "the king" to pay respects or something.

Then in 03 came the mach 1. I had just had open heart surgery and right after we got out of the hospital my dad took me to the ford dealer and we test drove a SVT cobra (supercharged ones now) and the mach 1. I have to say, the SVT had power of course, but that mach 1 is still the only new car I have heard to date that brings me somewhat back to the sound my dads 67 GT350 made. I actually looked them up a while back and apparently they are better than the SVT and if you throw a supercharger on it to make it on par with the SVT, it will beat it.

But, my all time favorite that are very cheap and I could probably get one if it wasn't for the fact that I didn't need one is a 1991ish Jaguar XJ-S. They come with I6's or V12's and do around 140. It was in speed zone with better wheels than is on all of them I see in ads but yeah I think it's really neat haha. Here is a scene with it in the movie, yess its the blue one.

For some reason I was in the right place at the right time to hear the older style camero (2005 maybe) start up that somehow had a 427 in it. I don't know how or why it was in there it was a really special edition. It was as loud as a nascar but you really couldn't tell it was any different from a regular camaro until they popped the hood. Being in a big tin building it was absolutely deafening.

A boat yard customer of mine had the Jag V12... it spent as much time in the shop as it did on the road. He dumped it after a year. I have not kept up with recent cars... and my physical abilities are so radically changed now... The only cars that come to mind are classics...
