The second Dreamcar I've always wanted and eventually bought has been a Corvette, in my case a 2012 Corvette Grand Sport Convertible

430 Horsepower, super comfy, handles great, its the perfect " Mans man " car, and like the Caddi, I still get into it and go " noooo wayyy is this my car "
I think theres a different between dream cars that we'll never have, and cars we can really Afford. If my business keeps expanding and being as successful as its been so far, maybe a year or two from now, a Ferrari 355 might be a possibility, tho I'd trade in the Vette for the 355
You should toss up a pic of your actual GS Vert ... 60 seconds in any paint app will resolve your tag concern, or just shoot a picture from the side.
I’m a big Corvette fan, and always “dreamed” about them when I was young - I mean really young, cars have always been one of my passions - from driving, street and track, to customizing, shows, etc. I’ve had four so far - the Z06 we picked up through the NCM delivery program, flew up to Bowling Green, took the factory tour, started a car on the line (not mine, that’s a little tricky to coordinate), and then drove it home ~850 miles through the beautiful blue ridge parkway, back to Florida.
I’ve kind of been keeping an eye out for a 427 Corvette C6 Vert, but they seem to be holding their value for now, I imagine the C7 Z06 Vert might drive them down. That being said, I’m also kind of knocking around the idea of a 4 seat convertible so the whole family can enjoy it!
FYI, the 355 is tough F-car to own, they’re finicky, require some extremely expensive maintenance - if I was shopping an older Ferrari, I wouldn’t go with anything before a 360. The 360 in Ferrari circles is more or less recognized as the first car that’s very “own able”, lower maintenance, much more usable, way better durability (some purists also lament it signaled the loss of the classic popup lights, which also goes for the C5 to C6 for Corvette owners
)
Well, as a hopeful entrepreneur I hope to have
many many many cars in the immediate future. Let's say everything goes to plan, here's my dream cars that I will hopefully be able to afford within the next few years
I'm a sucker for the classics
Stay hopeful, but focus on realistic goals which usually involve less immediate dream car purchases
I’m on business 3/4/5 (4 and 5 are also startups, though I hate that term). Work out of the house, surf if it’s kickin’, no commute, call our own shots since high school (through college and after), I’ve only ever owned my own businesses or done the consulting gig. It’s stressful, frustrating at times, but there’s nothing better if you’ve got the entrepreneurial bug.
Classics rock. The wife always wanted a 60s Mustang, I’m considering an option that might bridge the gap between real ol’ school muscle, modern convenience and safety and add a set of back seats for the whole family.
Tho you have a point, I never had kids, wife does not want kids either. So I bought cars.
Lets be honest, cars are better than kids.
Hahaha, well, having had both, nothing compares to my little baby G, but we had her much later so I was able to blow it out with cars, travel, umm, misc other vices, then sold my #2 company and was able to relax for a while and really plan for our sweet little doodlebug
