My wish car would be a newsupercharged Mustang GT.
I guess we Mustang lovers are mostly in theSouth! Ithink it's because theMustang is practical (around $30k) powerful (300hp stock) and responds well to bolt ons. Plus you can put onan exhaust to make it soundsuper mean. Throw an agressive cam in there and people will poop their pants if they ride with you (maybe not a good thing). Or slap on a supercharger and make another 100hp fairly easily.

LOL ...... do you really want to deal with MORE poop in the pants!!!

BTW --- My ideal next car would be either a 1996 Prelude SH with a G23 turbo or a 1992 CRX SI with a K20 bi-turbo that i am working on.

That would be sick. That car probably wouldn't even weigh 2000lbs!

hehehe ..... that's why i'm working on a sick turbo setup for a 2.0L 4-cylinder. Doesn't add much weight and that motor is going to put out around 500 HP. We'll have to line them up when you get your GT500 ..... but you'll have spare room to spray nitrous, 500 HP on a 4-cyl doesn't leave any extra room, but I wouldn't expect to need it.

Fun fact ---- the '96 SH lude was one of the only non-exotic cars made with 4WS (that's why I chose it, sick handling!!!)

2 other cars that I am considering are the 1st and 2nd generation MR2's. The first had it's suspension designed by a top guy from Lotus and the second is often called the poor man's Ferrari. ...... then again, I'd love to boost a wenkel.

lol rotary engines are awesome, their hp doesnt fall as RPM increases, therefore you can get more acceleration after peak hp than a std piston engine...

but realisticly i think in a few years ill be driving a Koenigsegg CCXR.
...or my current car... one of the two.

Not only that, but without the reciprocating piston, the peak pressure is much lower which means that the design itself can take more boost. Also, the internals move much slower and there are less parts. No intake valves, springs, rockers, camshaft, etc. Also, it's theoretical output is 3 times that of a recip. times the # of cylinders due to 3 power strokes per cylinder per rpm (most are 2 cyl which theoretically would put out 6 times the power of a recip with the same displacement).

my oldest sister has a black on black loaded 05 TL and my other sis has an 03 Altima now i just traded in my Colorado ZQ8 Sport for an 04 Accord EX. we are a sport sedan family i guess, lol... my mom has an 02 explorer and my dad has an 05 Duramax...

if i were to get a new car, it would prolly be a new vette if i had the money, and keep my EX for winter....
