Dream Car Garage

As both Casey and Greg at National Speed have put up their Dream Car lists, and as I have approximately 52 hours before being married, it seems fitting to do one too.

In no particular order:

BMW E30 M3

Does this need explaining?
e30-m3-59

Lotus Exige S260

What’s not to like about 2020lbs and 257HP?

Custom Volkswagen Type 3 Squareback

The family car. This would start as a complete body-off restoration. Engine would somehow need to make 80HP more than stock to account for the sound-deadening material I’d add in order to make this a quiet cruiser ride. I’ve never really found a picture of one that looks exactly how I’d like it, but here’s a clean and simple restored example:

This Bike

I’ve no idea who owns it and this is the only picture I have of it.

That covers my bases as well as I can determine right now. I’m too grounded.

    These all seem attainable. I think I might do a follow-up article later on down the road with some real attainable stuff, because I left my Stripped M50 racecar off my list.

    I’m liking this list!

    Congratulations, Greg. Nice list, I’m digging the bike. What in tarnation is that?

    Now you’re talking, Greg :) I was going to use an imported M5 wagon for the family car in the list, but I had to go with an old school vibe.

    Casey, I have no idea! Some inspired chopper/bobber vision brought to life. Every time I look at it with my face stuck up near the monitor I get all silly. So bad-ass.

    And thanks!
