bought my dream car......its moments like these that you cherish....hells yeah!
worked my ass off for five years (i've just turned 22), and i bought a 98 3.2i BMW M3 (321BHP)
i have dreamed of owning this car the first time i saw it on the road.....its the E36 model, and the deals you can get on them now are to good to turn down.....brand new the thing would have cost around £40000, i bought mine for £11999, and its only covered 35k miles....
I have never been stopped by the police before for speeding, i know for a fact i will lose my licence at some point, its too damn fast....
My dad says he is proud that i worked my ass off and bought the car. (When i got into university, he said he wanted to buy me a car, i turned the offer down, parents work to hard for me to go blowing their money). Anyhow, my moms is ****ting bricks, she is scared i'll kill myself or have a crash...
Just thought i'd share that's all...i'm a car nut, i'm like in the garage every half an hour staring at the damn thing....
What kind of cars do you dudes own/drive..
peace....

Thanks for your congrats, nice car kingofthe904. i'll modify the car when i get more dough, probably stick a quad exhaust on, change the interior, install a new sound system etc.....the first thing on my list is to change the wheels, i'm thinking of either buying 19" avus or hartge classic rims....
My actual dream car is the porsche 911 carrera GT2....
If there come a time where i can buy it, but that will 99.9% never happen....i'm training to be a CA ( i doubt us dudes get paid that much)....then again you dont know what life can throw at you....even if i did have that money, i probably wouldn't buy the car....its around £120000....phew
Then theres the ferrari 360 modena, the lamborghini murcielago...
the list is endlesss.....
i think the car i got is the best value for money (in my price range), around £12000 for a car with just over 100bhp per litre...and its only done 30k
i saw a couple of lotus elises, but i decided against buying one, i would rather use a elise as a track car than an everyday driver.....i dont think the states have the elise yet....i might be wrong...
Thanks again...
peace....

Mr bean (rowan atkinson) owns one.....people in the states might not know him....he crashed it though....i saw it at a motorshow once, it looks like it came from outer space....Yes that is the ultimate car, but its not my dream car...still love to have it though...i mean who wouldn't...

I've heard Wyclef Jean (sp?) has 2 maclarens!!! 2!!! I say it's bs how ppl can make so much money like that...he can spend 2 million on 2 cars and it's no big deal, whereas the average hard working person could work for yyyyears and barely afford a new vette w/ insurance...heh.. sorry, Ignore me, I'm just jealous

It's just that the car is just incredibly prestigeous (sp?). The car has insane HP...has that nice futuristic look...but the #1 part about it... it's completely hand constructed...everything is tuned with exact pure precision....there is no chance that there is a flaw in them, they arent mass produced, they are built to perfection.
Yes, it does have a "futuristic" look to it...but thats whats so damn nice about it! I'll try to find a few interior pics of it, the car's just badass!!

oh...and you say maclarens are too futuristic and you would take any ferrari over it? Just curious but I guess this is down to earth styling eh?
- community.webshots.com/r1/2/48/70/4924870JQFmpVgYKN_ph.jpg
Ferrari F50

Ferrari Mythos (never heard of this 1...but weird...very ugly!)
community.webshots.com/r1/1/53/37/15215337sXtUzOogJm_ph.jpg
and of course the badass maclaren f1  If I were bill gates I would own about 50 of these cars...each with it's own color  blue, red, green, blue red, blue green, white, tan, tanish white

the ram air is the ****!!!!! my friends dad in PA has a 97 that he thru a huge charger on. he said that it's so powerful it's scary to drive, especially when your turn off the posi-trac. you just tap the gas pedal and the tires peel out.
