Default Money no object. What car would you buy?

Let's pretend you have unlimited cash and a time machine to go to any point in time and walk into a car dealer and get whatever car you want. What would it be?

Mine would be the Ferrari F-40.

sorry, just gotta say, i saw one about 16 years ago when i was 18ish in europe, that is one fawking awesomely beautiful automobile! it was parked and i walked up to it, it was incredible seeing it right there in front of me! i didnt see anyone that looked like the owner and i ran my finger along the wing and upper door duct.

and to meet thread requirements, if money were no object i'd buy a whole fleet of cars over one particular model. the variety is nice, no matter what the mood i'd have a car to suit

Im with you Echodawg. A low and sleek hot rod with a chopped roof. Gotta have a big block under the hood. If money were no object I would just build the car myself and use the money for bills

Agreed, I'd buy one just to look at it if nothing else. Talk about an engineering marvel....

These are mine...

These ones from Ky...Right by Six Flags.. One of the largest shows I have been to. It's been years since I have been to any large NSRA shows.

And then I need a good tow rig for my 1:1 Jeep's

Why mazuula??

my truck would have to be a fully built prerunner as well, with at least a 60gallon fuel cell, 500 hp, at least 24" of front travel and 30" rear, all black paint with black robby-gordon rims with white beadlock rings, 37" bfg race-projects with runflat, limo tint all around with a night vision windshield,(so i could turn off the lights and still haul @$$ through the dezert), seating for 3, full tube chassis built out of 2" chromo, 8-10 8" HID hellas, all starting with a 05 chevy 1500 cab. Also, i would want water cooled king kong shocks with on-the-fly in-cab adjustable rebound and compression and ride-height. I could go on for forever... So, Basically combine the military and Pfluegers truck together and make it street legal.

If I have a time machine, do I have to come back to 2007?

I can't see subjecting anything better than a Yugo to today's drooling, cell-phone babbling drivers, but to fulfill thread obligations, I'd pick a 1930 4.5-litre Bentley, and stay back in the 1930's where I belong. Back when it was acceptable to cane the stupid and insolent.

Thor and Franky, at the shop I worked at in a previous life, one of our customers had an F40 and he drove the snot out of it. In all kinds of weather. I remember it in December, covered in salt, snow packed in all the air scoops.
