Some more 'Old Import' dreams..

A 1986 Toyota Corolla GT-S AE-86 would be awesome! (Jumped on the Initial D craze, :p)

Or even an 1991 Acura NSX Coupe.

Corvette C7, preferably the Z06 that is getting debuted at Detroit. Or, the Z51 3LT.

Okay, I had a chance to ride in one of these yesterday. All I can say is the 65MPH I went in it felt better than the 130MPH I went in a 911 on the Autobahn a few years back. I could feel the power of the Corvette more, even in the passengers seat. It was still in it's break in period, so the driver didn't accelerate it that hard, but anything was enough to put you back in the seat.

That car seems to be missing some pieces.

Nope, its the standard road going F1. The one with the rear+front spoiler has the HDF (High Downforce) kit :)

I had the pleasure of being up close with one of the Harrods McLaren F1 GTRs at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2014 :D

Since going in one a couple of weeks ago I've been totally hung up on the F-Type. I went in the S, this is an R. Couldn't for the life of me choose between the Coupe and Cabrio though.

Slightly more attainable is a crappy little MX-5 that I can do up! Hoping to get one in 12-18 months when I'm doing a paid placement year as part of my degree. Will have to think about renting a garage or I'll be travelling to my parents house every weekend to work on it :p

As a 17 year old in the UK, passed my tested 1 month ago yesterday (06/11/13) my dream car at the minute isn't that fancy I want an Audi A1 S-line in the weird orange colour.
My problem is insurance companies in the UK; having my license for a month on most small engined old cars they want £3,000 - £5,000 for my first year which is just stupid.

I will have this by the time I'm 21.
Audi A1 S-line - 1.4 TSFI S-Tronic in Samoa Orange. 182BHP.

I know this is bringing it up from a while ago but I remembered this post... I just ordered an A1 1.4 TFSI Sport (122BHP model) and my insurance is going to be just £400 at 20, so it really does come down quite a bit especially seeing as my insurance for the past year was £700 on a 1.2 Clio.

Next up, an R8 V10 Plus. (I wish :p)

I saw one in this matt blue at a dealer one, it's so nice.

The new 4series Gran Coupe is a desperately good looking car. Saw one today on the street and immediately fell in love with it.
