Want an NSX in dark green, like this one, just not a Targa:

But at the moment I'd settle for a working car I can get tires for and take on the track that doesn't break every five minutes like my CJ does...

Wow, those are sweet! I especially like the red one. And this coming from someone who normally thinks 3rd. gen. 'Maros are hideous.

I saw one of these for the first time in a parking lot. It is a seriously nice car, both inside and out:

The new Focus hatchback is definitely going on my shopping list when it is time to replace the Speed3. If the ST gets better mileage than the Speed3 then it'll go on that list too.

I'm also lusting after, not a car, but an engine:

Grr... if only 20Bs weren't so freaking expensive...

Tube-chassis, mid-engine VW Fastback. The idea won't leave me alone.

OOH!! I want that now Actually I had a '79 that looked identical to that. WS6 and everything. The paint was so faded it looked like primer, I was bored one night after the oil pump drive shaft broke (stupid old's engine's) and buffed out the drivers side fender and it actually came back and looked great. Was too faded on top but I saw the potential.

For some reason I still want an Accent real bad.

I'd love this...

But i'll stick with the 100buck E36/5 and my Squire, which is awaiting an IRS swap.

A Westfield. Or a bronco if I could afford the gas.

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.

looks like mine! If you change your mind I would love to know where it is so I can have another one!

i dunno...I will lust for a certain car off an on for a long period. When I finally get it I almost immediately lose interest. Same for bikes and women

Maybe I should see a shrink

2011 Mustang GT. White, 6spd, Brembo's, 3.73's. $32k MSRP...

Alfa 4C with a proper 6 speed manual (yes, that kind of proper, the kind of proper that entails a clutch pedal as standard equipment), preferably gated like the shifter on an Audi R8 or any manual-trans Ferrari

or... a UK-market facelift S2 Elise, with the supercharged engine and a bit of ECU tuning done to extract over 200hp from it

In the real world, I'd end up with this first though. Not as outright sexy, but can be cheaper to purchase, MUCH cheaper to maintain no-matter the purchase price, faster, and pushes all the right buttons.
