Default If you could have any car in the world and price was no object...

The only caveat is that you have to keep it. In this imaginary "game" doesn't matter what the car costs…you can have it. But if someone were to offer that to me I'd get a Veryron SS and then sell it and buy a number of other cars.

Well, you can't do that. You can have any car, price is no object, but you have to keep it. You can keep your current cars too, just can't trade this one out…what would you get? Another caveat you can pick 3 on the condition that you get to drive them first before picking your final one.

I daydream about this almost daily and I have to say I think I would get an LFA or an MP4-12c, or the new Lambo Aventador (so hard to choose w/out driving them) I used to keep an R-8 in the running and recently I met a race car driver at Harbor Frieght of all places who had one. I asked him about it and to my surprise he said everything about it was garbage and that you would be a fool not to take an LFA. He's never driven the newer mclaren but the older one is a track car, not a lot of fun on real roads, very uncomfortable. I could have talked to this guy all day but his phone rang and our conversation was over. He did say to keep a 458 in the running but there is just something about the those super F-1 balanced cars that has me. And the LFA I could drive around town w/o most people even knowing what it is…and I like that.

Brand New STI. Simply because of insurance on those "SuperCars" would be re-DONK-u-lus!

I would then invest MY money in Hookers and Blow!

Is only price irrelevant? Because US street legality and maintenance are bigger hurdles than price

Go to the off topic forum if you want to post things that have nothing to do with subarus.

You said nothing about who pays to maintain, so I assume that would be me.

I'd like one of these but I guess it's not technically a car and the running costs would be a challenge:

I dono, man......the RS4 at the Kaisen open house sounded like it was mean and lean and a fighting machine.......and put down 254whp before it fused its clutch disk to the flywheel. Mildly modded Evos were eating it's head.
