    LOL.....my son and I used to keep a "Rice Rocket" tally on car trips. Here in the Bay Area you see all sorts of souped up stuff...some if it is really funny, actually.

    Had my dream car for a while. Sadly, nothing lasts forever.

    My first car was a '67 bug. At the time it was 10 years old IIRC. Had a handful of bugs over the years, fun cars. But not all that comfortable.
    I'de love a early 60's vette. Wouldn't mind a Viper either.
    In the realm of actual possibility Im considering the Toyota FJ Cruiser.

    Actually, considering my current look (think Terence Powderly in jeans and a T-shirt), something like this is probably more appropriate.

    That said - if I had a much smaller budget (but still way more than I actually have ) I'd be perfectly happy with:
    - A well-restored MG-TC or TD, and
    - As a daily runner, I'd take the new Tesla S - the 2016 model, which smokes a Corvette.
    Not the Z06, which I'll take. My dream machine now is the Mercedes Sprinter based Airstream Grand Tour. Serious party van.

    She still cleans up great, and is now ready for that Sunday drive with some loud progressive jams...

    I never dreamed I'd buy one of these, but I did. I feel a little under-dressed, too young and my hair a little too dark to be driving this. ;-)
