...what would it be?

I have mine, nothing like a 69 Charger in my book but I know others dream of supercars or whatever so let's hear it.

Remember you can have only one so if you have a Charger you'll have to sell it or trade it towards ownership of your dream car.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

If a brand new Kia Frote5 with a six speed is anyones dream car, and wants to trade that old Charger for it...let me know....your dreams could come true! :yesnod:

That pinto reminds me... I was in a wrecking yard last week and the guy has an old pinto wagon in there. It looks like it drove in.

Tough choice...

In all practicality, probably a late model Hemi Ram extended cab.

If we were talking about only one FUN car, then it gets tougher to narrow it down.  There are just too many cars I want to own before I die...
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

My Charger finished. However I defintley wouldn't turn down a black '69 Daytona Charger though!

Dead serious... But with a real blower and a 4spd :yesnod:



Can you imagine the looks it would bring being most of the younger generations never seen this car, little alone heard of the Mad Max movies :icon_smile_cool:

Even one of the stock Falcon GTXB's would be awsome to have.

Don't put it like that! I couldn't have the Charger, unless I wanted to crash it every winter. I would have to have a newer car.

1974dodgecharger

maybe a all electric prius that gets me 450mpc, heat seats in the car, 4 door, sun roof, gives off zero emissions, and very queit on the road, a truely eco friendly car would by my best and last car.

Dino

Alright lemme answer these questions first... Baker, you can have ANY car you want but yes you are still married with kids.   :lol:

Hemidog you bring up a good point so let's say that since you aquired your dream car, you also moved to a place that does not know what winter means.   :icon_smile_big:

Now some of you are scaring me with the pinto and prius things... come one guys, you can do netter than that.   :smilielol:

Truckdriver, I would not mind driving that Falcon, that's one mean machine.

I'm happy to see all those purdy Chargers and other mopars here but I confess, the other dream cars are not too shabby either.   :2thumbs:

1941 Plymouth P-12 Special Deluxe Convertible. I started helping my granddad with this car when I was 10. It was given to me as my wedding present. I've still got a couple years of work till its finished but I will sell my Charger and eat dirt and twigs before I ever consider letting this one go...

"If you cant fix it with a wrench, get a hammer. If that doesn't work, get a bigger hammer!"


69 OUR/TEA

As you stated,you would have to sell your Charger,so hands down,this would be my choice.I almost had one in 2003,had the cash,but just started an addition on my house and figured I'd better leave the money in the bank just in case.Turns out the carpenter that was supposed to do the framing for me was getting unreliable even before he started,so I opted to frame the addition myself,and the cash I had waiting for him, could have bought the car !! :brickwall:
Figured I'd pick one up later,but then they got out of control for pricing,or at least what I think they should be priced at.You won't find one now for less than $70k.Unless it has a lot of miles,and/or junk.

Chryco Psycho

I have had my 70 R/T SE Chall for 32 years now , no plans to change
Although for a daily driver a Cummins Ram would be my choice even at 30,000 miles / year it would last longer than I will
