If money were no option-
I have an unhealthy love for all things Pontiac. I had a GTO in highschool with a real Poncho motor in it. Loved it!
I have 2 loves
I could only find a pic of a 61 but I want a 62.

472 Poncho on EFI and with a 6 speed. 17" front wheels and 18" rears.
Or for a cruiser

472 Poncho EFI with 17" font- 18 rear and 4L80e trans.

I love the new style Mustangs and I'm really a music lover type. I'd love to go with a black Mustang GT, black leather interior, HID lamps, glass roof, heated seats, Shaker 1000 stereo system, in manual.
If I had my pick though I'd really want the Mustang with a 6 speed manual and a diesel engine, but not an option.
Speaking of non-existent cars, Pontiac Firebird discontinued in 2005... but I'd love to see a 1989 model Pontiac Firebird with 6 speed manual and diesel (with options for 4 cylinder ECOTEC 2.4L and 2.2L; and V6 and V8 with automatic cylinder shut-off or a limiting switch to lock the V8 to 4, 6, or 8 cylinders).
That's a Firebird. Recognize it?
EDIT: I like the 70s era GTOs.

There are four cars I dream about having:
'70 Hemi Cuda Convertible (closest I got was a 74 barracuda 360ci)
'70 Hurst Olds
'09 Dodge Challenger (I would have one right now if it was available in a 6 speed manual)
'08 Mustang GT500

For offroading and fooling around, a Suzuki Samurai. I had one (SJ410) (not mine):
As for sports car, it would have to be an Audi R8:

I've never been a car guy, but I had one of these back in the day. When it ran, it was cool.
