Attainable dream cars thread

Any of the AMG cars used could be attainable dream cars. Damn are they fast but damn I wouldn't want one out of a warranty.

Nobody wants to discuss the cars they want but are just out of reach?

>>17353234
I know maintenance can be scary but I'm willing to do the work and pay for what I can't do.

>>17353245

Me too but I'd rather spend my time driving the car instead of working on it.

>>17353266
Working on cars is my fetish.

>>17353266

>>17353190
A Cayman GT4, I suppose.

Go for it OP, that's my dream too.

Just be careful, AMG parts are very expensive.

>>17353290
And many are unobtainable.

This isn't shit you get from going into Napa or vatozone.

>>17353283
Wew lad.

That's about 2.5x what I can afford lol

>>17353303
EBay is a wonderful thing.

>>17353190
Ok, but do you want to change the spark plugs on a twin spark V12?

>>17353316
It's a nice car, but who would have it as a dream car?

>>17353190
>waxing every week

what a pointless endeavour

>>17353266
Enjoy your Honda Civic

>>17353354
Right? A Miata is like a cheap whore that you slap around and do kinky shit with once in a while for fun. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but who dreams of being with a cheap whore?

BMW E30 325i 5spd hardtop

It's the only BMW that looks good. It has the least retarded mustache-grill. I want to keep this thing stock for at least 4 years then do a discrete turbo.

Those are pretty sexy, 80's BMW's a best. You want the 4 door? Did they come in 2 doors?

Had an 87 325i 4dr. Sold it to get a newer car... Regret it everyday. I will buy myself another someday.

>>17353454
Going to the R&E for a bit of stuff, are ya?

>>17353558
I don't see how they can keep going up, it isn't like there's a supply issue anymore.

>>17353190
Used Lexus cars seem like the best way for someone (at least in Australia) on an average income to experience a luxury car. I've owned a couple of Lexus cars and having Toyota reliability with Euro luxury is nice

You're parked in front of the R&E store.

>>17353612
Or Pontings, Idk.

911 GT3. I can afford it today but I'm focusing on early retirement. The fact that they brought back manual for the 2018 model is tempting though.

>>17353612
>>17353622

Can you see that in the picture or do you know what town I bought it in?

I don't live in Victoria so meh.

>>17353636
I used to work at Pontings, instantly recognized the intersection.

This seems like the place to put this

Should I? Owning a rotary is on my bucket list, but at this price I'm scared.

>>17353190
You can get an SL55 for a third of the price and change out the pulley to make over 600bhp easily

>>17353190
$900 for an oil change. No thanks

>>17353683
Only if you're a retard

>>17353669
Does it even run?

>>17353691
Sure
https://youtu.be/XV9rJwEOCus?t=39s

>>17353695
If the poster is to be believed, it "runs and drives." For some reason, most RX-7s I've seen seem to be really cheap unless they're in super-pristine condition.

>>17353669
Rotary is not different in anything but the powerplant as a car. So go for it. Be prepared to have to sift through manuals, because its mostly you who will be working on a rotary.
It is fairly simple, dare I say even more so than piston engines, since fewer parts in the engine itself. Only thing is well...it isn't as well documented as piston engines. Which makes it scarier.
If you had worked on a regular piston car beforehand, you should be able to work on this one too.

Bring the fucker down to 1800$ and use the remaining 1k for parts and repairs. Just the most crucial ones.

>>17353702
Why yes, Scotty, I would like to have a car that can diagnose everything.

>>17353190
The moment you have to get new brakes and rotors and it costs you $2000 just for parts you'll stop smiling.

>>17353718
I don't mean to be ignorant, but what's so great about RX-7's?

>>17353745
Lol oh noes, 2000 every 3 years or more, whatever shall I do?

>>17353683
This.all you need is like 9 quarts of Rotella or mobile 1. plus it should just be a canister oil filter uptop along the valve cover.

Pic related, preferably with a 12a and turbo blow thru carb.
They're getting really hard to find though.

>>17353190

Easy. Late NSX-T before the fixed headlights. 6 speed manual of course. I could buy one now, but it would be a stupid move, but I'm working on a big income boost, so who knows what is possible.


I should had bought one in my late 20's when these were $30k and I didn't have kids and mortgage, now rhey are like $50k+ and have adult shit taking muh shekels.

Yeah, those are sweet. Shame I didn't buy one when they were affordable.

>>17353562
Welp now is a good time to buy it kid. Entry level Ferraris always depreciate to a certain point and then start hiking back up again. 355s are almost at the bottom I think, and the 348 is enjoying a nice well deserved upswing now. Their values are like clockwork

>>17353190
I feel the same exact way only I'd have the SL55... slightly cheaper to maintain, cheaper to buy, more prevalent and the engine is a masterpiece

Befriend a MB or euro mechanic and see if they'll teach you basic AMG maintenance

An electric car with 500 km of range

weebs and F&F kiddies

This is kinda silly, but an old (80s-ish) Mercedes 300TD wagon is my dream project car. I want to buy a super cheap used one that still drives, fix it up and make it comfy as fuck for my daily car.

>>17354054
I can dig it. Those 300 td's are appealing

A Hawkeye STI. I know it has the boyracer and rally wannabe with the weird wing on it, but I wouldn't car. I would keep it completely stock and wash that baby daily.

A neo classic car of some kind like a Zimmer. Or a late 60s muscle car, like a Charger or a Roadrunner.

I mean I've found some relatively cheap ones online but then there's the matter of importing them from the states...so maybe in a few years I could have one.

>>17353680

or you could get an e55 which is quicker than the sl55 stock and do the same thing
