Daily - Something that uses no fuel, is completely sound proof, has perfectly smooth suspension and filled with tonnes of spec and driver aids. Such a car will never exist though.
Weekend - Aston Martin DB9... (Not a Ferrari or Lambo )

Thinking about this all the way home, and if it's dream cars then sod being practical and economical...I fancy a Hemi powered Dodge Challenger (I had so much fun driving the V6 one in the USA last year) or a Shelby GT-500...big V8 all the way !

Daily: Something plush, stealthy and fast, Phaeton is a good shout, maybe an old merc, or a Jaaaaag. Oooh, or an E28 5-series.
Weekend: RWD, reasonable power, sorted chassis. Realisticly, MX-5 turbo. Dreaming? Supra/R32 Skyline/200sx. Really dreaming? Hakosuka Skyline, or Datsun 240Z.
To be honest though, I could go all day for weekend cars, Saab 900 Turbo, 309 GTi, E30 M3, etc. etc. etc.

Theres a guy lives a couple of doors up from my mum with a trans-am on the drive. Sounds lush when he drives up the road in it. Might grab a pic next time im up there if i remember.

If I was to wake up tomorrow with them outside my house I would choose a Ferrari 250 GTO and a Lamborghini Veneno. I would then sell them, travel the world and then retire to a stately country mansion with a 306 out the front
