Lambo Revention, so many cool touches. Pretending to be a fighter pilot whilst driving gives the desired supercar effect
As an everyday car I'd have a white Audi R8, with a DB9 as a back up & a DB5 for showing off in
I'd like to buy a Porsche too, but I'd keep that for one of those special occasions where you have to spend some money or the tax man takes it. Mates dad had to do that, so he bought a yacht

I don't have one particular car that stands out. No car does that for me.
Every car is different and has its own attractions. I could carry on that list on and on and on, adding track cars, town cars, touring cars etc.......
So yes Tom, it was. PS, those Mercs are like the E Types. Full of hype, full of claims, but always a let down. Bit like the Countach (lambo). Watched a very interesting program on MotorsTV about the enthusiast club, stating their faults, the rebuild costs (simply rediculas).
That car though, is the first gull winged type supercar.
Not it wasn't the question but lets not get petty.
I fail to see how in a thread such as this rebuild costs and faults are that important. The gullwing just based on visuals is one of the most appealing cars to me. I know it would probably be pretty bad at most things but I just think it's stunning.

Petty????? Eh? Im talking about the Merc and its following? Facts about the car, not my opinion of it. Sorry, i wont put any facts about car, i mean, this isn't a car site at all?

Possibly an F40 - reason its not going to depreciate at all, infact it will go up in value.

i know what you mean, but i just think the r34 is perfect looking.
also gives me £470k to spend down halfords lol., you could turn a tune a skyline to near supercar speed easily with that amount anyway.

Me and a mate had a similar discussion about a 300C or a Bentley.
I said 300C, the american one with a RH drive conversion. Just think of how much you'd have left to spend on the fooker. Imagine a £30,000 interior in it, £20,000 on the outside to do subtle things and £20,000 on the engine to make it move a little quicker. You still be left with a wallet overflowwing with £50's.
