I like the front end of the 1977 and 1978 a lot better.

My realistic dream car at the moment is the monte that I have now =) once she is done in the next year or two, I'll move on to one of my other dream cars & keep this one forever as my number 1 bcuz it was my first dream car that I had in reality =D

Most of my dream cars are pretty realistic since I don't have a taste for exotics

I miss my TJ Wrangler rolling on 33" MTRs :( I'd like to have another but do the AEV Brute build.

I love my '04 Grand Cherokee Overland, it'* done everything we bought it to do and then some, wouldn't mind a new model with the Overland Package. and then drop some coin into my '04 to jack it up.

the wife has an eye for a newish truck in the near future, it'* up in the air between an '05 or newer Ram Power Wagon or something in the 2500 series with a Cummins. She likes the idea of Diesel, but we do love them Power Wagons, I grew up watching too much "Simon & Simon" so they always were a fav of mine.

and yeah, I'd so hit the F150 Velociraptor, yeah it'* only 60 HP mopre than a regular Raptor, but as far as being "ungodly amount of money" isn't it only around $5,000 more?

I would love it if my 97 SE was a SSEI. Same colour and having the leather seats heated would be nice.

That'* not odd a all. I'll take one also. I still miss my '98 Auroroa--totalled in July 2009 with only 75,000 on the odometer.

i sat of those back when they were in the dealers, it was like a space ship. i love buttons.

for me the realistic dream car would be my 87 firebird with a stand alone mpfi setup and two big turbos on my 355. its got a carb now.

someday i would like a 89 TTA to cruise around in.

for a truck I would like one of those mid 2k yukon xl'* with the dmax conversion.

My dream car would be the one I currently own. Has room for people, good looks, decent performance, and I really enjoy all of the comments I get from ppl when driving it.

For me, this one............ no. 308
http://www.chicagotribune.com/classi...,3933310.story

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

Unbelievable that it'* been sitting in that showroom for the last 23 years and no one has purchased it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, however, I do believe this was the fastest U.*. production car ever made until the CTS-V came along? hmmmmm............................................ ......
