Default If you could have just one car...

what would you choose? Assume price is not an issue, and you don't have to worry about gas, insurance, parking, or anything else. But the thing is, you can only have ONE car. Which one would it be?

I think I would get this:



Beautiful, fast, exotic, and a back seat to carry 4 people on short trips when absolutely necessary. What about everyone else?

I guess that is the Veyron? Although there may be more expensive antique/collector cars, such as the Ferrari 250 GTO... But I wouldn't want that as my daily driver.

THAT' S THE ONE!!!

I'd get that too. I think Aston is pure mechanical sexiness. If I had a quarter mil to spend on anything, it would be the Vanquish S...

This one's actually the DB9, which I like slightly better, even though it's their middle of the line car. Haha, "middle of the line" at $180k...

You guys would really want these crazy exotics as your only car? The Diablo is beautiful, still one of the best ever.

Let me try to explain to you what the Diablo means to me:

I would do ANYTHING to get a hold of this car. I would drop on my knees cry and beg for hours on end if there is a slight possibility of me getting this car. I would have my ear, eye, finger, toe or any other limb not needed to drive the car be cut off to trade in for this car. Im willing to give up sex for the Diablo just because I know that the car will satisfy me in EVERY possible way. I dream about this car when im not dreaming about Carmen Electra and I think about this car at least once every minute. Everything I do in life is directed towards me being able to buy it.

Let me know if you want more because I can go all day

So I guess you don't really like the Diablo very much huh? hehe j/k

Just out of curiosity, how old are you? I think you can get a Diablo for low $100k range if you're willing to go for an earlier model year, early 90's. Save up for a few years, by then they'll be even cheaper, and you can make it happen. Good luck!
