Hootie, your taste in cars is about on par with mine! My favorite Ferrari used to be the 575...that was until this rolled out of Marenello....




Not quite the same rearend as the one above but pretty impressive nonetheless!


If I have to own one Ferrari, its the 458 Italia, hands down!....and I'm a Corvette guy!

^^ Darn you Mike for igniting my inner Mopar craze. :P Which reminds me of something I've always wondered... How can tell the difference between a Road Runner, Satellite, and the GTX?

Now I have to do a bit more digging. haha

LMAO at the rear end comment. I agree, the C2 and the E46 you posted up were almost dead on to what I'd like to own one day. The 458 an amazing machine in terms of performance but styling wise it isn't my cup of tea... just yet.

The look of the car just seems too tame for what it actually is underneath the sheet metal and carbon fiber as well as what the car can actually do. Think of it like the how Ferrari took the already magnificent Enzo and turned it into the beast known as the FXX or...

the 599 GTB...



into the 599 GTO.

This one is a bit specific, ever since I seen this car on SpikeTV's Bullrun I've wanted to build a car similar to it.

Mr. Angry's '68 Dodge Charger cardomain page.

Here's a Youtube link to the owner autocrossing it.

The reason why its on my dream list is this particular Charger had be modified with an on-slot of suspension, steering, and chassis upgrades from XV Motorsports, Wilwood (I think) Big Brake Kit, Gear Vendor's overdrive, a 440 bored .030 over with forged internals, and plenty more.

Here is their Bullrun casting video. NOT SAFE FOR WORK LANGUAGE

The things I'd change if I were to build one (paint wise)...

It would be BMW's Frozen Gray (BMW's Space Gray with matte clear) with the R/T dual stripes across the rear in Honda's Polished Metal Metallic with matte clear and a set of CCWs in a similar staggered wheel/tire sizes.

When I heard the 599 GTO on Top Gear I "got excited", but in an automotive way. Now, I'm not a Mopar guy, but that 68' Bullett "chase car" you posted here is nice but here's my one and only Mopar that I'd have....







I'd want mine Pro Touring style w/17" Magnum 500 style wheels w/red lines, the new 6.4L SRT Hemi w/a 6 spd and 3.73 gears.

Honorable mention.....

Yes, Sassy Grass Green 'Cudas! Very nice taste!

As of late the E46 M3 Coupe may have been knocked off my "Favorite BMW List" for this...

The 2012 BMW M5 (F10), with this example being in Monte Carlo Blue Metallic.





Though, it isn't available with a proper 6 speed manual (has the 7-speed DCT) it may be possible that BMW will make manual models later in production like they did with the E60 M5. The biggest rumor floating around regarding this model is that there could be an all wheel drive model being made.
