When I went looking for answers to the following question,
“If you had unlimited resources and money and could buy any car you could
possibly want, what would it be? What would it look like and why?” I was surprised
at the results. I discovered that my readers were dreamers or just someone who really
did not care about what they drove. I know that I am a dreamer because I want a
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. Some others were just as dreamy.

Norma T. first said that she wanted a BMW 745 Li because she
always thought they were beautiful cars. Except hers “would be white with
completely blacked out windows,” however, when I was a kid it was a Ferrari Testarosa just because it was at the time the fastest car” out there. In
addition, Marty Deiters of Anderson stated, “a 1976 Chevrolet Corvette, always
wanted one since I was 10.” Marni S. said that she “loves Impalas” and that she
wants “a bright purple one with chromed out everything, slammed to the ground
(three tortillas off the ground) and a white convertible rag top.”

Carl D. of
Cincinnati would love to have a 1966 Studebaker Avanti ii because it was
labeled as “fastest production car in America” as he described the car. In
addition, Stephen B of Anderson, Ohio said, “I would love to have a 1968 Opel GT.
If you look at it, it bears an uncanny similarity to the corvette, but it’s
really the headlights that get me on this car.”
Since I come from a car loving family, I decided to ask some
family members the same question. James K of Cincinnati is a true dreamer. He
wants a 1967 Shelby or a 1969 Camaro in nut brown with a candy coat with black
racing stripes going from hood to the deck in the back complete with custom
racing tires and wheels. My brother, Jimmy, also wants a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
or a Ferrari F50.
However, some readers just did not care for a fancy pants
car. In most cases, they were more concerned with the amount of rust or lack
thereof and the ability of their car to get them from point a to point b
without failure.
That Bugatti is really pretty. With infinite money, I'd have to have a rather large garage. I like the Lamborghini Countach or Diablo. Candy apple red, of course. I like the old MGs that sat just inches from the ground. I really like seeing the new concept cars and wish they would go right into production instead of staying show pieces.
