Man I'd love an old-school open-wheel race car.
Not sure if I could afford one, but I can dream.

Six-time Le Mans winner Jacky Ickx and five-time Le Mans winner Derek Bell both drove this Ferrari 166/246 Dino Formula 2 car in 1968.
Jacky Ickx at the Nürburgring.
Ickx was the first to race this Formula 2 car fielded by Scuderia Ferrari team. He competed in just two events with this car, the season-opening Gran Premio de Barcelona and Eifelrennen at the Nürburgring, the latter of which he won the pole at.
Derek Bell at Zandvoort.
Then, Bell took over driving duties, and this example became the first Ferrari he drove in competition. In his first outing, he, too, scored a pole, earning it a Monza. Bell had caught Enzo Ferrari’s eye by driving for Bell’s stepfather’s privateer team, and soon after he found himself in an F1 ride.
