Go to the US and come back with a 1969 Dodge Charger. Drop a 440 in it and fully modernise (re trim, digital gauges, fix the rear suspension geometry etc)

You and I share similar thoughts.

However I would prefer an original 1968 RT Charger 426 Hemi.

buy the top of the line HSV or some exotic sports car, take the glass out of it, then enter it i a demolition derby. Never seen it done before, and if money was no object, then why not....

First, build a big shed.

Next, pay someone else to restore my XB coupe.

Finally, get a Plymouth Daytona. 160 mph out of the factory, a shovel nose and a rear wing that's higher than the roof. Now that car makes a statement!

SM1DY · 22-02-2010, 01:39 AM

RedHotGT · 22-02-2010, 11:04 AM

I'd buy a Surfer Orange XY GT-HO (only made one or two of those)
I'd be the first at FPV to pre-order the new Coyote GT-HO (orange to suit XY)
I'd buy a block of land in the bush, build a big shed... and spend the next 2-3 years buying cars and looking for collectables to fill up my big shed...

Outback · 22-02-2010, 11:25 AM

I would buy ford Australia.

motorcycles4eva · 22-02-2010, 11:30 AM

i would build my car into a burnout worrior twin turbo sleeper, so it would look like my grand dads, with visor and venetians, and stock hub caps, so i could take on the supercharged weapons..

If I had the money I would launch a constitutional challenge to the state government policies of using "road safety" and "speed cameras" as a subtifuge for collection of taxes.

**Polyal** · 22-02-2010, 01:59 PM

Oh god I change my mind every week so ill keep it semi realistic. In the future I would like:

Daily for me: F6
Daily for the missus: GT

Track car: Mk2 escort RS1800
Family cruiser: some K code Fairlane, ZC maybe
Tow car: one of those mid 50's F100's

Hmm that about covers it, id kill for a Mustang SVT R like in the avatar aswell.

CFOUR · 22-02-2010, 02:50 PM

I'd build a no limits autobahn from Brisbane clockwise right round to Perth.
i would also have a auto bahn approval center to register cars capable of correct speeds eg... no Hyundai's.

trippytaka · 22-02-2010, 02:51 PM

... have a collection that dwarfs Jay Leno's with a private race track backing onto my property.

Fev · 22-02-2010, 02:55 PM

Strip and rebuild my Escort, remove all rust and imperfections then painted pure black
new grills, rechromed bumpers, boot spoiler, smoothed out engine bay, hydraulic pedal box, smoothed out undercarriage
Forest flares front and rear(custom to suit 4-door)
duratec 2.3L tuned to about 270bhp (non turbo) with a full stainless exhaust system and quad throttlebodies (maybe bolt a T3/04 onto it later)
OR
The soon to be released Ford Ecoboost 4cyl turbo

5spd Supra gearbox, quick shifter - with a wicked Redback spider knob hehe
3.77 LSD differential with 28-spline axles
2.9 quick rack with electronic powersteering
whiteline swaybars front and rear with strut top bars front and rear
Coil over suspension up front
Watts link in the rear
mesh headrest Recaro's up front, retrimmed in red alacantara along with the rest of the interior
red swede recaro steering wheel
Old school Speco gauges to replace the standard gauges in the dash
15x7 Ronal Turbo R10 rims (getting them soon anyway

) with 225 rubber front and rear
A nice stereo - nothing over the top though

Should demolish practically everything on the road with that and still be fuel efficient

haha

That would be my daily

Track car
Probably a Series 8 RX7 painted Pearl Blue, 450hp 13bT, full adjustable suspension, Work Meisters , colour coded centres with polished rim at 17x8 in the front and 17x9 in the rear or dark grey Wantanabe. Setup for track days with a container full of track tyres

Retro car
KPGC10 Skyline GT-R - oh the old school goodness
It would have to be decked out with Work Equip 03's, adjustable suspension, chin spoiler and LOW

OR

S30Z L28DETT, dark blue, Wantanabe's fully seam welded chassis, half cage, 6spd tranny 550hp and pumping for over 300km/hr on the highways around Japan (I love Wangan Midnight, can ya tell?)

I'd much rather a collection of dwarf Jay Leno's with my own private race series. I'd call it "Midget Leno's Muscle Masters"

I can imagine ther tiny bucket seats now.

Kamshaaft · 23-02-2010, 04:27 PM

I'd buy every Ssangyong ever made and park them in a wheat paddock in the middle of Australia. Then I'd buy a bomb with a 5 tonne payload, a plane to drop it from, and flying lessons.

kezzer · 23-02-2010, 05:40 PM

I wouldn't bother with cars, I'd buy a P-51D Mustang or something with abit of heritage then something new like a F-15C Eagle fighter plane, and of course lots of lessons and a fuel company lol.

Kamshaaft · 23-02-2010, 05:57 PM

^Don't forget a tub of polish. You'll need a tub of polish.

Joshmcmillan · 23-02-2010, 06:11 PM

I would, buy a manual BA XR6 Turbo, twin 2.5" Exhaust, FPV body kit, FPV steering wheel, 18" F6 replica's, F6 air intake... pretty much what I plan to do eventually.

XR6_661 · 23-02-2010, 06:11 PM
