Full carbon fiber MSO specd McLaren 720s Spider

It's the dream car, but I would never buy it if I had the money. McLaren cars are gorgeous, but notorious for breaking if you breath on it or drive more then 1 mile. I've watched enough youtube car videos to know its beautiful, but broken. Not the first time i've used those words

As easy as it would be for me with the proper bank account to fill warehouses with vintage cars I love if I was gifted one dream car it would have to be thoroughly modern.

The second option would be "the" modern interpretation of a classic.

The Singer DLS. The Dynamics and Lightweighting Study cars make their "regular" 964s seem pretty pedestrian.







They weigh under 2,200 pounds and the engine revs to 9,300. The rest of the numbers just don't matter, Singer doesn't even know how fast they go or how fast they get there. It reminds me of when Rolls Royce used to list horsepower as "adequate". Shut up and drive you bench racing nerd boy.


The first option would be a thoroughly modern car. An SF90 Stradale built through Ferrari's Taylor Made program. A 1 of 1 car with a one-off deep red (similar to Rosso Magma) matte/metallic paint that would be thereafter named after my wife, 'cause that is what the insanely rich do.

It would look a little like this, just darker, flatter and more metallic foil-looking.

No, but the 427 SOHC certainly was. Hemi killer.

Having been in the transportation business for many years I fell in love with Mercury Grand Marquis and Ford Crown Vics. I would love to have a Kenne Bell Crown Vic.
