An excellent choice for traveling the ruined highways of the future.

Realistic: Anything, I don't care.
Semi-realistic: First generation (1963-1965) Buick Riviera
If I win in lottery: Lamborghini Countach

That first generation Riveria looks so much like a bad guy car, it out bad guys the Continental. Like the non-fighting bosses ride the Continental, the muscle that they called in to kill the hero-or the anti-hero you called in to deal with the bosses, they drive a first gen Buick Riviera.

And you always park right in front of a camera so that the headlight is dead center as the clamshells close.

Or you start it and turn on the lights at the same time for dramatic purposes.

The Giulia GTE. Classic car meets electric engine which means I like.

That or a Datsun 510. I'd take either, honestly. Preferably both of course, but you can't have everything in life.

I wish I had gone after a 510 in high school when it would have been cheap and autocrossable.

If we're being literal with the 'car' title then.. Aston Martin DBS.

I'd settle for a V8 if I can't have a Cosworth YBT in a Foxbody. I'd also want a Cosworth style whaletail, although I'd settle for the Saleen whaletail; ideally it should get the Cobra R IRS developed for the SN-95 as well. That's my dream Mustang.

I'd be pretty happy with an Escort RS or Sierra or Merkur XR4ti too, for that matter a Fairmont coupe or Cougar would be great too.

I watched Ant Anstead from Wheeler Dealers craft a third wing for a Cosworth RS for Wheeler Dealers, he came to a studio I was working at to do it. It's weird to watch someone that good at fabricating work. Even with trial and error it took way less time than I thought it would.

I'll have to look that up. They're definitely among my favourite cars, but don't ask me for a ranked list.

Nah, ranked lists are arbitrary. I don't know that I could even come up with a complete list.

This video cuts out him making the third wing but shows the car with the third wing.

Too bad Aston comes in only gray-olive color.

I’ve got a few:

Original Ford Bronco with a V10 engine, must be diesel of course.

M60 Patton, fully armed and armored.

Humvee, also fully militarized.

MK3 Centurion Main Battle Tank
Or

...how? The original Ford Bronco has a 92 inch wheelbase. Do you move the driving to the backseat?

T-55 or a Lada Riva

Maybe they're thinking about chopping and lengthening a Bronco's front end to become a strange, off-road dragster of sorts?

Bunch of Countaches showed up for Monterey Car Week.

The Muira is often credited as the first supercar but the Countach I feel set the stage, including a casual disregard for usability.
