As of recently, I have Mopars on my mind.

I want this body style:

With an engine like this:

^^This^^ particular 265 is in a Charger, apparently makes 400hp, attached to a Toyota 5-speed. Awesome .

Quite possibly . At least they didn't let that guy weld the exhaust header.

Yes. Me too. I spent about 3 hrs last weekend looking at these, and I've never been very interested before....

Same as always...

Thanks to all this Ferrari talk, i have realized that an F355 6-speed is actually attainable for me within the next decade. I hate you guys.

GAH!!!! Or a 348 within the next few years!!!

Looks just like that one. It's been sitting in a parking lot near work long enough for the tires to go flat. Some sleuthing revealed it's owned by the liquor store it's parked near. I left my name and number but if they don't call back I'll have to start showing up on a daily basis.

My 740 could use tons of parts from it.

Lotus/Caterham/Birkin Seven. Something like this would do nicely: (It's a SV since I'm rocking 13's.)

Well there's always silly fantasies of things I'm not going to be getting. But within my price range, and what I find myself trolling the listings for this week are:

V-Max. I still need one. Still mad I let my wife talk me out of the last one.

Honda Insight. Well, they are weird. And I drive a lot slogging to work.

Studebaker Hawks. Had one with a friend as a boy, want another.

Citroen. Just want one.

Do not ride a V-Max. I have wanted one since I was 16 (the year they came out) and when bike shopping, I rode one. It will be EXPONENTIALLY harder to resist after a blast around the block.

Certainly nothing new. I'm a minimalist. So here's my list: A Lotus 7 knockoff I built myself. Not particular about the engine, as long as I build it myself.

A Freestyle buggy, with Escort CVH power.

A Doran with a Suby EJ-20D, dual webers.

When is CM going to snatch Egan? He does not belong at R&T.

Factory Five GTM. A buddy has an unfinished one sitting in a warehouse he refuses to work on. We need to make a deal.

I've had this weird urge lately to do up a 3rd Gen Camaro.
