    I'd love the Toyota Hilux from the arctic episode of Top Gear.
    Maybe without the gun locker since I'm in the UK and I couldn't fill it with anything useful/legal.

    My boss has the RS4 and it does sound lovely when it drives past, even at really low revs.

    I just bought a facelifted Focus ST-3 in gun-metal grey which should be putting out about 280bhp soon and while its not my ultimate dream car, it'll do me nicely for now... :)

    I believe you meant F40. Both stunning cars.

    Mine would be the Mclaren F1:

    The Lancia Delta Evo and the AE86 mentioned before are also ones I would be quite excited to own.

    Must admit the F40 is the only Ferrari I'd ever want to own as it stands, for some reason I just cant get away with em in general.

    You obviously haven't seen the polar episode of Top Gear :p

    They're meant to be driven like that, helps spread the weight of the vehicle and grip better :clap:

    It's to have a greater grip surface area.The tires are riveted(sp?) to the rim, which keeps them in place no matter how flat they are (of course without any air this would just rip the tire apart)

    Useful for off road driving, not only on the snow. When climbing rocks, the tire takes the shape of the surface it's on instead of just slightly touching it if the tire were to be full of air for example

    Most beautiful car I had ever seen, truly. The interior and its view is half of it, for sure. From what I know, it was an Italdesign V10 concept that Lambourghini ended up using as the principal basis for their Gallardo, 8 years later.

    Mercedes MAG SL65 Black Series, unless i am mistaken? Love the car (in spite of its sheer overpowerdness and the steep price hike all the way to 250000 GBP)

    well, i loved it on Top Gear, so why not, probably would cost about the same as a sixpack if they still made it... to bad there is no reverse...

    @Ending Credits:
    Shurely you mean Ford GT (without the 40) or do you want racing technology from the 60's?

    @iggy2k:
    Hehe, I just love some of the features on the car, like:
    There are three horns, becouse "you can never find one when you're angry." and all the horns play the song "La Cucaracha."

    The sound of the engine is described "as if the world was gonna end" by Homer.
