    Dream cars

    While watching a ahow on tv I found my dream car that I would love to park in the garage next to the VX...1953 fiat 8v supersonic
    Then after a little research I found that they are saling at auctions for $1,000,000+ and thus it is in the "dream" catagory.

    As long as we're in dreamland...

    It's your V-8...but four more.

    "It goes to 12"...

    And it appears to come with rock sliders...

    It was later discovered, that 8 was the maximum number of vehicles that they could keep running at once...

    If I could afford the million plus price tag I am sure I'd be able to afford mr. Fiat as a personal mechanic!

    WOW, I don't know if I've ever seen that '53 Fiat before - IT'S INCREDIBLE!

    Good pick!

    It's not really a Fiat. It's a Fiat racing chassis with Ghia coachwork.
    It's still way cool.

    I used to have dream car lists... for some reason I can't remember any of them really. Was always stuffed with old mustangs like boss's and Mach 1's. Now I don't really lust after much like that. I'm a little dissapointed in myself for it too! I'll have to rekindle that old flame!

    True Confessions

    1966 Pontiac GTO Convertible, burgundy with a blacktop and 5 spoke wheels, Hurst Edition. I actually dated a girl once because she had one. Nice girl, nicer car.

    And STILL only be able to drive it 1 day a week...

    IF it's able to produce spark & atomized propellant gas at the proper time...

    Note to Fiat:
    1 intake
    2 compression
    3 ignition
    4 exhaust...
