Actually, how about one of those 'Busa V8 engines? Like they have in the Radical SR8!

Not really a dream car but I hope to have a nice S15 Spec R for daily driving purposes between the girlfriend and I by the end of the year. Main thing holding me back is the theft problem! :?

Nothing outragous because I already have other fun cars that I don't have time for.

I'm a bit domesticated now... so not very exciting

Was keen on a 98+ Aristo with a gte but thats rather complicated and too much can go wrong over time, working on the mr2 has shown me how complicated turbo engines are, so I want something NA.

My current dream car is a 98+ LS400 - i know, not very sporty but i have got the mr2 and levin for that. I am wanting something with a bit of power, excellent safety, great comfort and reliability, so the ls400 is for me.

If I had to pick something exciting... any Lotus.

Yes, I have a soft spot for GT3's especially cup cars, after hearing one my old work sponserd hit 8000 rpm with just a blip of the gas made me make a little mess in my pants.
