Given unlimited funds, what car would you get?

@Claire2k I mean yeah there's a very clear environmental footprint, but it's about as clean as I can get, I reckon. Well, short of buying a smaller electric car... but I want auto-drive 😩

I think it’s definitely a good thing you’ve clearly thought about this area - many people don’t!! Or don’t want to! I’m certainly not getting at you at all, I was just curious more than anything about the environmental side of the production of the electrical vehicles - I know mining Lithium is a pretty intensive process and I read one time that the Prius in its whole cycle from getting raw mats out the ground to disposing of its parts once it’s done with was pretty questionable mainly due to that battery.

However - from a driver point of view - this bit we can control is kinda important isnt it which points towards electric vehicles 🚗 😎@BlueVeins

@Claire2k I mean yeah, batteries in general are really horrible for the environment. Definitely recycle those fuckers if you can. I tend to think the worst part is the cobalt mining, just from a human rights perspective, but obviously pumping CO2 in the atmosphere has its own human rights problems.

What about the GT500!? 😎@samanthaG

@Claire2k
That one too. Matte black.

You’d have a fair collection there!! @gdon39

@Claire2k what about you? Unlimited funds. Do you have more than one car in mind?

I like that rare BMW M1, I’d perhaps go for a 1953 Mercedes SLR gull wing, or perhaps a mid 50’s Ferrari 250GT California :) @gdon39

Now THAT is one fast car! You wouldn’t be able to drive it though - give it one week and you wouldn’t have a license!!@Adogslife

That’s certainly got some character 😎👍@CestManan

You wouldn’t have a problem with traffic in that!! Haha@Nobody00

Oooh - very fancy - your own personal bit of bling!! 😉@BEENOV

@Claire2k absolutely

The very one 😎👍@PhoenixPhail

@Elizabeth28 showtime

@Claire2k first one is a 72 pontiac grand prix ssj 455 v8 second one isa cadillac corvorado cadillac eldorado and corvette mix togetehr to make the famous 1 of 7 corvorado couupe by les dunham

Very cool 😎 @Elizabeth28

@SethGreene531 great car

@BEENOV 👍 Absolutely. Touch of class, understated.

@Iwillwait good idea

@BEENOV I can't be bothered with paying attention to the road.

@CestManan Toyota has the Supra. It’s a BMW but a nice car.

@jackson55 actually a Morgan, In it’s fastest version anyway. And more interesting than the supra or bmw

I was gonna chip in that Toyota have the GT one... the celiac was popular, the supra both old and new versions 😊👍@CestManan @jackson55

@Claire2k well 289 is like 4.9L
Driver safety in the 70s on the track or street ?

Kinda both - there were lots of safety features brought in in the 70’s and it definitely had an effect on the quest for all out speed at any cost that you got in the 60’s :)@Driver2

@Claire2k well the safety features in the 70s kind of killed performance cars
Plus the emissions

I think that normally involves a Toyota doesn’t it!? 😊👍@SarahAndSamantha

@Claire2k that'll work

@SarahAndSamantha unfortunately that 1 ain't gonna happen

I couldn’t agree more - well said!!! 👍👍👍@CestManan

@CestManan to each tehre own aand MOST amateur car shwo respect alll kind of car in my town when we have the show and shien its bring waht ya run type deal the car comunity can accept otehr rides .some ....................not so much

@Elizabeth28 I mean I have no say in how car shows are run.

It is kind of annoying having to walk through a maze of late model camaros and chargers just to see the real classics or exotic cars.

If I want to see a late model charger, I will just look in the rear view mirror, I am sure one is tailgating at any given moment.

@SW-User awesome car,nice choice

Very cool!! @SW-User

@BEENOV I'd like the steering wheel on the other side, though!

@Claire2k my dream car.

Would you get the original AC Cobra or the slightly later Shelby Cobra? @Mynudi

@Claire2k cobra daytona coupe reproduction

@SW-User Yes

@SW-User i would look funny as hell getting out of it but whatever.

@SW-User great choice

How about the Shelby Cobra GT500? Of course your original 63 Cobra 427 wouldn’t be a bad option 😊😊😊@BEENOV

@Claire2k 427 was a bad boy, they named it the widow maker

Not surprised considering it had a 7ltr engine, a load of power and noooo safety features!! 😬@BEENOV

Interesting- that would certainly be rare! @SW-User

Tesla or something a bit different? @mysteryespresso

@Claire2k not sure

@SubstantialKick I have that. The leather is perforated though heated and cooled seats. Once you have cooled seats, you never go back.

@SubstantialKick As Lexus is built by Toyota, you would get both dependability and luxury. Regular Toyota is not so luxurious.

If I had the money for a luxury car, Lexus would be my choice.

@Claire2k for character probably Jaguar Etype or Porsche Cayman

Jaguar e-type is certainly a characterful car! Would you go for the original 1963 first edition or a later one?@QuietEd2019

@Claire2k almost certainly original

@Claire2k right

It’s the same here in Australia- sooooo slow!!@BEENOV

@Claire2k thats my kind of gal i love unique custom build cars asa well if icould idd get every version of the Lincoln ontinental mark v 1977 the 5 desingner edition bil blass ,cartier,givenchy ,puchi diamond jubilie and the chevrolet monte carlo custom cloud ,77 nto 78 oldsmobile toronado xsr and cadillac fleetwood eldorado 72 and 76 77 78 oh a corvorado and a 1972 stutz blackhawck also a studebaker grqand turismo black hawk 1965 oh of course a mercury grand marquise and oldsmobile delta 98 88 and i guess a few rare bird along the way

@Claire2k I have a Audi R6. It will have to do.

Do you mean the RS6? (Just wondering if I missed an Audi model!?) 😬@jackson55

@Claire2k Regular R6 sedan. Im not the biggest fan of turbo chargers.

@Allelse

@Claire2k absolutely miss moneypenny 😀

I like something a bit rare, and with a bit of sophistication:)@SW-User

@Claire2k only way to travel. that car is so stylish and oozes sophistication

I like your choice, rare, charismatic and would be great for cruising around in!! @mainvane
