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!

Funny, I had a dream last night I was toting around in one of these. I was sad when I woke up and there was only a Subaru in my driveway and not the F40.
