Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

my top 5 picks will be:-
1. skoda octavis vrs mk1
This was probably the first ever car I remember being sitting inside as a kid. Skoda was still new at that time in India and with it's 1.8 turbo petrol engine, it got quite popular among enthusiasts.
The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-images-1.jpeg

2. 1969 Ford Mustang boss 429
I mean who doesn't remember John Wick's mustang.
It was a limited production vehicle from ford with 429 cubic inch 7.0-liter engine specially designed for NASCAR racing.
The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-images.jpeg

3. Chevrolet Camaro 5th generation
The only car which I always prefer in yellow.
The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-images-4.jpeg

4. Ford GT40 mk2
Earning its title from 1966 le mans. It was an ultimate track machine of its time.
The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-images-2.jpeg

5.1966 shelby cobra 427
Last but not the least this vintage car certainly got to be in my top 5.

Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

Mine will have to be the 911 (993) Carrera S (widebody)

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-993porsche911.jpg

I do not care about straight-line speed / performance. My dream car needs to deliver a memorable driving experience and I have no doubt that the 911 is capable of that. The 993, being the last generation of the 911 powered by an air-cooled flat-six engine, was the default choice.

Other cars shortlisted would be:

2. Maserati Quattroporte (2010-12 with the ZF auto transmission)
3. Porsche Carrera GT
4. Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA
5. BMW E90 M3 (manual)

Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

Absolutely every car guy has their dream cars

Here's the list of my favorites (assuming these are the only cars we can have in our garage) :


1.Koenigsegg Jesko (Attack)
Well starting off this list strong who can deny the carbon fibre monster that Christian Von Koenigsegg has created and the amount of sheer innovations it has !!
  1. Free Valve design
  2. Triplex suspension
  3. Light Speed Transmission
  4. Ultra Stable Steering
Its the final track car ever needed
2.BMW M5 CS
The M5 is a best daily driver along with all the power you could ever need in the world. Ride can be as comfortable or as stiff as you want, Power and handling not a question here, along with comfort and beauty making it THE PEAK BMW
3.Rolls Royce Cullinan (Black Badge)
On the times you and your family needs ultraluxury and Opulence(whatever it means) RR is all you can need and it can go offroad as its an SUV(kind of). This car is everything for a highclass event or an important business meeting.
4.Shelby 427 Cobra
I was confused between this and 1969 Charger but choose to go with 427 as its an open top and it want to kill you more than any other car, just imagine the adrenaline rush.
5.Lexus LFA
Well we all know why this car is in the list, the glorious sounds OMG no amount of music could match the sound of this Japanese marvel, and since its a Lexus you are not to worry about reliability too.

Why not the R34 GTR Z tune. Better in every way + newer and rarer.

Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

My dream garage today:

1. Sports car/ super car: A Porsche 911 of any kind (991.2 GT3, non-RS preferred)
2. A Luxury sedan or sleeper GT: BMWs/ Mercs which are just one step below the all out M's & AMG's - I do have a soft spot for the current M340i and the G30 LCI M550i, E53 AMG coupe (C238) from the last generation and even the current Merc CLE coupe (C236)
3. A hot hatch: Golf R
4. Luxury offroader/ overlander/ towing car: Toyota Landcruiser/ Lexus LX
5. Everyday beater: A Honda/ Toyota crossover - Elevate for now, swappable with an equivalent EV


Bonus: A Maserati V8 (GT/ Quattroporte, doesnt matter) which spends more time getting fixed than on the road, but leads to pure tears of joy when it works.

Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

Here's my list (in no particular order):


1) Porsche 997 911 Targa 4S Manual: I like 911s in general, and BHPian androdev's thread on his 997 got me infatuated with this particular generation.

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-3690222.jpg


2) BMW 8 Series (E31): The most gorgeous BMW ever made period.

Re: The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars

Here's the list of cars I'd love to own, in no particular order

1) 1997 Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution SWB

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-swb-1.jpeg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-swb-2.jpg

I've developed a great liking to it's butch SUV looks, especially the "cat-ears" at the rear and of course, it's Dakar heritage.

2) 1994 Audi RS 2 Avant

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-rs-2-1.jpg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-rs-2-2.jpg

An estate lover through and through, The 1994 Audi RS 2 Avant was love at first sight when I saw it on Doug Demuro's channel. It was a co-development project between Audi and Porsche. The practicality, and the styling just come together perfectly.

3) 2003 Renault Clio V6

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-clio-1.jpg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-clio-2.jpg

The Renault Clio V6 was Renault being absolutely irrational, but what came out of it was unbelievable. A normal everyday commuter car turned into a crazy rear-engined track monster. It's so un-hinged, I love it.

4) 2002 Honda City

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-city-1.jpg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-city-2.jpg

The humble 2002 Honda City, the most attainable car out of the lot, and one I'm deeply obsessed with. This is one car I hope to own when I turn 18. The Glorious 1.5L V-tec engine, the clean lines, and the analog feel of the car is something that I wish to experience in this lifetime. This particular example is GMReddy666's restored city, and boy has he done a great job with it

5) 2018 Singer DLS

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-dls-1.jpg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-dls-2.jpg

The 2023 Thread | BHPians and their Dream Cars-dls-3.jpg

The most un-attainable car of the lot, but also the most stunning. Singer is a California-based company that reworked a Porsche 964 to absolute perfection. Everything from the exterior, to the performance, and the interior has been re-worked to be even better. If there was an end-goal of my lifetime, it would be driving this beauty.
