I know man, the Ls600 will have a hybrid engine and also AWD (im not a fan of hybrid but with rising gas prices it's starting to look better). 19 speakers, mid 20's mileage, and with the toyota reliability I don't think it's a toy that will break once you drive it outta the lot. Man I always been a sucker for the LS series, and leather. I would take the LS600 over any ferrari, mercedez, audi, porche any day of the week because it won't break down once I drive around the block.

HKS TRB-02 Lancer Evolution 8, Tsukuba record holder. Dry carbon fiber body, HKS GT3037S turbos, fully reworked engine with HKS 272 degree camshafts, forged pistons and crankshaft, full SPL racing exhaust, one off Yokohama Advan racing wheels, damn, must be nice to be Nobuteru Taniguchi. One hell of a company car.



Oh and of course one of these, Wald modified Celstor/CF43 (LS430 here in the US).



And one of these, Veilside modified Honda NSX.



And lastly, one of these, Maybach 57S.



Maybe a Scoot FD too, you know nothing too bad

There were a bunch in Vancouver when I was there, man it looks sweet in person. It's hard to imagine it's so relatively cheap too!

I'm not really into exotic cars, but I do lust after a BMW M5. That's all I need, well, with a Honda Civic Hybrid for everyday driving.

I've got an '88. I think '89 got a bump in horsepower, different tail lights and body colored side molding. It's better, but grab any of the FC3S (2nd gen) you can get ahold of. They're terrific fun. More fun than any car I've owned, and they're reliable, too. Regular maintenance and upkeep, and they'll just keep running. I'll never sell it.

As for a dream car, I've got an eye on the older Morgans. I could afford one, but don't have anywhere to put it. For now. A few years from now, I'll pick one up. They have classic styling, are reliable, fun and easy to wrench on. Also, they're unlike anything else on the road.
