I think this thread is for ridiculous cars, not common dream cars.
Yes, instead of Dream Cars, my focus was ridiculous. But I'm not going to grouch about what people post. This is more the type of car I was thinking of:

The one on the right. Because who doesn't want to roll around in a chariot being pulled by 3 motorcycles?

For ridiculous cars, I've spent time with two of them.
A Pontiac Fiero. I actually still want one of these. Best freind in High School had one and we went everywhere in it. Had a couple of great summers in that rad little car!
I actually owned a 1st Gen Honda Insight for a couple of years. It was awesome.
That is actually my car. I put some Mini Cooper 16" wheels and 200tw tires on it. It gripped like it was on rails. An absolute blast to drive on a curvy road.

Looking back now I wish I had held onto it. It was tons of fun. Would really love for Suzuki to get back in the American market and sell the Jimny.
I owned one. It was my first car. I had an '87. It was great as a teenager in Southern California. Could hop curbs whenever you wanted. Oil changes were super easy. And the top was off about 11 months per year. The biggest negative was the reason my parents loved it. Top speed of 65 mph unless you were going down a steep hill.Lt. Joe Bookman said:
I've always wanted a Suzuki Samurai. Doesn't make sense for my family of 4 with two small kids, so I've got a Wrangler JLU. But damn, these things are sweet. Especially swapped with a 1.6 or 2.0 even.

There is a TRX in our 'hood with that same paint job. My sons said they were told it is owned by a Houston Texan.G Martin 87 said:
For sale at a local dealer. It's been on the lot for a long time. Can't imagine why.

Do it.

Does a TRX count as a ridiculous vehicle? They seem ridiculous to me but I can't eliminate my desire to own one.
Do it.
