That's a really great choice.
Totally original.
None of the obvious choices, like my list.... LOL
That choice is more passion over price....
Reps for the memories...... LOL
 
I used to be much more interested in beautiful cars, but now I have a completely different perspective on what cars I like. Older muscle cars just don't appeal to me anymore, along with new sports cars, like Lamborghini's, Ferrari's, etc...
Now I really just like cars that are efficient, economical, and easy to drive, like maybe something similar to this Volvo.
http://www.volvocars.com/us/models/C30/Pages/BuildYourC30.aspx
I know it's probably really boring, but I don't put to much value into material possessions, so a nice car to me is something that's all around easy to get in and go.

As far as luxury vehicles, I would say something like this.
http://www.maserati.com/maserati/en/en/index/models/GranCabrio.html
It's a little more sophisticated looking than say a Ferrari or Lamborghini, and has a style that isn't so flashy.

I can't think of 10, I know, but it was fun searching through cars, and I thought everyone had some really great choices.
 
Ahh.. Here's mine.

1) Brand new Corvette ZR1
2) 1968 Camaro
3) McLaren F1
4) Pagoti(Spelling?) Zonda R
5) Bugatti Veyron
6) Cadillac CTS-V
7) Audi RS4
8) Ferrari (not sure which one) Just wanna have one to say I have one. Lol
9) Lamborghini Murcielago
10) Eh why not, they just look sick.. Dodge Viper

Pagani Zonda.... Pure pantomime.... Love it, the way super cars need to be made.... LOL
Bugatti Veyron.... I've seen too many for sale with around 1500 miles on the clock, something is wrong, maybe the price...
I mean a million bucks 250+mph and nowhere to do it....
1001 bhp electronically managed so you don't get into trouble.....
Ariel atoms leave them for dead.
Hell the Nissan GTR done it a couple of times, and 950000 bucks cheaper... .... Great, explain to the guy you would of caught him if you could of got to your top speed.....
Superb bit of engineering, but too engineered for numbers....
 
mine come in many varieties but all the same each have their own rhyme and reason. well to me anyways. make fun of it all you want. but i work on cars all day, and have built 9 second cars with a tuning company when i was still in school, so i took a lot of abuse for my weird car likes. lol.

1) Peugeot 206 Maxi
2) Subaru 22B STI
3) Citroen Xsara T4
4) BMW M6
5) Audi R8
6) Toyota Carola AE86
7) Mitsubishi Lancer GSR
8) Alfa Romeo GTV6
9) Toyota MR2
10) Nissan Pulsar GTiR

now none of those cars are in order as of what i would have first. most are very rally influenced in that is how i drive. whenever i get a chance to take any old twisty back road, or anything with loose stone or dirt i do it. all of my projects, even a 4th gen civic, were all set up to handle like a rally car. the civic was more focused to tarmac and the acceleration used in autocross and tarmac events. and if you notice they are also all very easy if i dont say so myself for a guy like me to obtain. if you can find them and put the work into it. haha.

Lol, I guess to have the Veyron would be like, hey I own the fastest production car. As far as car of choice.. I would have to just go the ZR1. It seems like it could be a perfect mix between sports/super car and somewhat comfortable to drive.

I've never been a fan of the Japanese cars, not sure why. Don't really like the looks either. Lol, but I do respect them for they're speed and capabilities, just don't think I'd own one.

the 22B STI is totally capable of going shopping in. i tried to make a replica out of my 98 RS when i owned her, and just never wanted to throw down the funds as i was waiting to go to college. but it had tons of room in the back for stuff. i have driven with 4 passengers in it, full car, and none of them complained for room. even though we had a small female in the middle in the back seat. boy am i dumb for selling that car. also many of my cars on that list like the mitsu g sedan are just that, family cars, with a bit of umph. the mitsu not many know has awd, and all wheel steering turbod stock. its a family sedan also. in the midst of many un knowing people my buddy had one that blew the socks off people. not stock of course. the citroen xsara also is a family car im sure and not just used for rally. since the goal of the wrc is to have the cars be actual cars sold on the market just highly customized on the same platform.

edit: if i was to have any of those cars in my garage, theyd also be daily drivers, along with my toyota tacoma extended cab. totally capable of shopping in. lol.

Well... I forgot about this car, which for some reason I thought was the coolest looking car in the world as a kid. I had a little toy model of one, and I always thought it was awesome.

And I also used to think these were great too.

I suppose nowadays I really just don't find cars that appealing. It's strange, I know, because I used to marvel at fancy cars before I got my license. Now I just find innovation to be the best part, not just bad ass looking sports cars. I like efficiency, accessibility, and safety.
