I liked the DB9 until it was on desperate housewives (don't ask how I knew that)

How do you know that?

355 will go boom on the track

oh, and just missing the cut by a hair

11. 1991 Buick Skylark

With me driving, All things go BOOM on the track! Also, we used to use a lightning to tow trailers all the time back when I was racing. They're fine for towing as long as you don't go crazy with your trailer.

note to self, you cant drive my car

I know the Viper truck (Ram SRT10) isnt suposed to be used for towing or even hauling, though Im sure it can

Darn! I really wanted to get some seat time in the Buick!

...the battery died yesterday
got any jumper cables??

To be honest, this is all i want.

that is hidious!!!

and not street legal.....so you'll have a Ferrari and still be taking the bus

But, ill be smoking you on the track.

Just register as it as a 355 Berlinetta and tell them you have slight track mods.

Ive seen it done.

BTW its spelled hideous

try getting the VIN past the BMW there wise guy

"Notice i dont have a disrespectful signature."

BTW its "I" not "i"

Palmer,
Certain year 355 Challenge cars did not have titles, thus no deal at the BMV. I know 1995 cars DID have titles, not sure if you car register that 96. But be sure to paint it before you're seen in it.
Indiana is pretty generous on registrations though, allowing assembled units with not much more that the police issuing a Vin, so maybe you car register your Ferrari as a kit car!

1 LP400s low body Countach
2 Muria
3 F40
4 250 GTO with race history
5 288 GTO with delivery miles
6 63 Z06 big tank Corvette with race history
7 Porsche 962 LeMans race car
8 Still trying to narrow down my wish list for 8
9 " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " 9
10 Long wheelbase Peterbuilt with 53' stacker race car trailer to pull it all around.

How many of your top 10 can you spot in Peter's garage?

Nice, too many new cars though I like Jon Shirley's collection!
http://threefourfive.com/blog/dave/archive/2005_03_01_archiv...

I wonder how many I can name..
166 MM, ??, 250 California, Daytona Spyder, XK120, Austin Healey, ??, ??, ??, Boxer, 300 SL Gullwing, 300 SL roadster, ??, ??, 275 NART Spyder, ??, Thunderbird, Cobra, E-Type, 550 Spyder, ??, Testa Rossa, 375 MM, Formula 1 car

I have heard a lot of people could register their 355CH's but they choose not to as the suspension and ride is horrible.

Oh well.

355CH on 62 or 135 would be godly.

Palmer...what SMS said. Nissan Skylines are not street legal in the US. To avoid having to do all the safety upgrades and associated expense, some people import the cars and engines seperate, then register as a 'kit car". Helps get around the laws. Still can be tough if you go up against a hardcase. Can save you some $40k in having to upgrade. Heck, if they register an Ariel Atom, why not a Skyline?

OK, after giving it some thought, here's my top 10.

First, the museum pieces:
1. 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'cuda
2. 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440
3. 1999 Lamborghini Diablo VT coupe

Next the fun cars:
4. Lamborghini LP640 Roadster
5. Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
6. Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (for the track)

The Daily Driver:
7. Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG
.. and for that rare occasion when you need to carry more than two people:
8. Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

For the quick trip to the hardware store:
9. Smart fortwo

For the bigger trip to the hardware store and general beater-mobile:
10. Dodge Grand Caravan
