Post a picture of the car of your dreams...

[borlis]

It must be the diva in me. I just LOVE this car. I'm not picky, I don't need a brand new one. I'd be perfectly happy with one a few years old.

[LostInAnomie]

1. Awwww Yeeeeaaahhh!

[borlis]

2. My four year old son would love it!

[unsavedtrash]

3. a couple

I would be happy with either.

[borlis]

10. 1st ones a Jag. What's the 2nd?

I like both, but the second one looks more fun.

[krispos42]

17. Saturn Sky n/t

[borlis]

23. I had no idea Saturn made such a neat car.

How much $$?

[krispos42]

26. MSRP about $25,000 base

The Red Line model (turbocharged) adds about 5 grand more.

[borlis]

27. Not bad.

I was actually thinking about maybe getting a mustang convertible someday because I don't think I could really ever get the vette. But maybe this one would do.

[unsavedtrash]

31. I am a big Saturn fan.

We have the wagon right now but I hope this will be our next one.

4. 1935 Duesenburg SSJ

Because it would be fun.

[borlis]

9. I feel like Bonnie and Clyde are going to pop up with their

machine guns. Neat car.

5. Don't really have one, but I'd love to have my Alfa Romeo Montreal back:

6. Saleen S7

8. I dream of a Tesla.

Their site's all Flash so I can't capture a picture, but this is the first 100% electric car I've seen that is HOT!

12. You can put this in your post, just bring up the properties and copy the url:

14. Thanks :) -- that didn't work when I tried it, but glad one of us got it. n.t

[qnr]

15. You're welcome :) I just used a screen shot utility. n/t

[borlis]

20. I would look great behind the wheel of this!

And if this was in my driveway, all my neighbors would be jealous. :evilgrin:

[qnr]

22. It is nice, I agree. n/t

[slj0101]

11. Born too late for the muscle car era, so this is it:

[borlis]

18. I like it!

My best friend's older brother had one just like this when we were in high school. It was a major chick magnet. Really fast too. He was a mechanic and did all kinds of stuff to it.

[slj0101]

21. Some elderly neighbors of mine had a Chevelle when I was a kid.

The husband would go out in the morning and rev it full speed for 20 minutes, then go back inside. No reason why. The thing was a monster, and totally spotless. What a waste. I had another neighbor with a Cuda, which was a sweet car too. Those were the days.

[quiet.american]

24. Gorgeous.n.t

[enigmatic]

13. 1960 Ford Thunderbird

[dysfunctional press]

19. 1959 cadillac eldorado convertible...cherry red.

[krispos42]

25. Skycar M400

360 MPH, no traffic, Vertical takeoff and landing. It does NOT get cooler than this.

28. Sumpthin like this right cheer.....

Way too much car for me, but the thought of sitting in one has always made me a little horny baby....:silly:

[slj0101]

29. See my Chevelle SS above.

Muscle cars rock. That would be a total guilty pleasure ride for me, considering how much gas they suck up.

[Gormy Cuss]

30. With optional

solar panels:

32. a car for all seasons: Maserati Mexico...

33. Tesla Roadster Battery powered by laptop lithium cells!

http://www.wired.com/news/wiredmag/0,71414-0.html
The Tesla Roadster is powered by 6,831 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries -- the same cells that run a laptop computer. Range: 250 miles. Fuel efficiency: 1 to 2 cents per mile. Top speed: more than 130 mph. The first cars will be built at a factory in England and are slated to hit the market next summer. And Tesla Motors, Eberhard's company, is already gearing up for a four-door battery-powered sedan.

In an age when a car's electronics are worth more than its steel, it seems only natural that the tech sector would have its own car company. The question is, can Eberhard turn the digital era into horsepower, torque, and rpm?

Eberhard has never designed a car and has no experience building one. He created the Rocket eBook, a handheld digital book reader that came to market in the late '90s. But he insists his eBook background is relevant to starting a car company. The device used a rechargeable battery, and Eberhard -- an electrical engineer -- devoted himself to maximizing run time and minimizing weight. In 2000, his venture, NuvoMedia, was bought by TV Guide's parent company, which quickly abandoned the product.

But Eberhard was flush with cash and decided to buy himself a new sports car. He wanted something that was fast but still got good mileage. He quickly learned that high performance and fuel efficiency are mutually exclusive, at least when it comes to internal combustion engines. So he started researching alternative technologies and soon realized it was actually possible for an electric car to combine zip and efficiency. The problem: Nobody was making one. The EV1, General Motors' electric car, had failed, in part because it was expensive and poorly marketed. Most crippling, though, was the underperformance of the original lead-acid batteries and even the second-gen nickel metal hydride cells. Consumers wanted a vehicle that had a range greater than the EV1's (at best) 130 miles. The common wisdom was that batteries just weren't there yet.

But what did Detroit know about batteries? Eberhard had squeezed 20 hours of run time out of the little power pack on his eBook. Battery efficiency was an obsession among computer engineers, who were extracting more power from ever-smaller cells with each generation of laptops. GM seemed oblivious to the lessons emerging from the electronics industry. Eberhard began to think that if anybody was going to build a viable electric car, it would be a Silicon Valley engineer. Then, after reading biographies of John DeLorean and Preston Tucker, and reminding himself that launching a car company was a crazy idea, he did just that
