The first car I want to buy is a Scion TC with a 5 speed manual! Modify a little so I can rip it on the tōge a little, then I want to get my absolute dream car, an FRS/BRZ!! Then later down the line I want to own a RHD JDM car, don’t know which one yet tho!
What about you guys?!
Also the picture is a display of 86s and BRZs in Maryland!

Volkswagen Golf Mk 2 with a turbocharged VR6 engine swap.
Used to lust after the R34 Skyline as a kid. Interests have shifted a little, but still remains JDM at heart with a strong desire for a nice kei-car/van; something like an Autozam AZ-1 or something like a Suzuki Every.
Having driven a Geo Metro for a couple hundred thousand miles (350k on the odometer when I sold it for what I paid for it after having having driven it for 250k~ of those miles myself) I have a strong like for Suzuki products.
I swear this is the year I finally import a Honda Beat
'59 peugeot 403 convertible
Almost unattainable for someone like me who’s stateside, but my god… what I wouldn’t do for one
Jaguar XJ220 in the OG silver or British Racing Green
If we’re dreaming, how about a TWR XJ220s ? Gorgeous.
El Camino SS. I’m flexible on the year, I don’t mind the boxy look of the 80s models I just want that sweet ute style.
There was a very good condition one for sale near me a while back for $4,500, but it seemed too good to be true so I passed on inquiring about it. Plus I don’t really have the place to put it or the spare cash to spend, but once I get a place with a garage you bet your ass I’m buying one.
Eventually when I retire to Brazil or decide to just abandon the US I’ll get one of those Fiat Strada’s and put a better motor in it. There’s tons down there.
80s, 90s, and early 2000s cars peaked in styling! 😎
I have a few different categories of dream car:
Realistic daily: GR86/BRZ
Realistic sports/weekend car: C6 Corvette
Unrealistic: a brand new Porsche 911 GT3
One that got away was the FD RX7. 1993-1995 in the US.
I mostly own my current dream car even though I’ve had it 8 years now
Ford fiesta st!!! 😍
Amazing car. I hope you get your hands on an FD! Maybe Mazda’s new rx7 concept will pull through 🙏
Not sure if your messing or not :) but this is a Focus RS!
I am now in life where I could probably acquire one but they’re just not many unmolested ones left. Not sure I’d try at this point
1995 Toyota Hilux
Bro i wish Toyota was allowed to produce the Hilux here. Such a reliable truck, so many Americans would benefit from it. It pisses me more and more that us Americans won’t get the toyota hilux champ.
The Toyota pickup is a damn good second, always has been, since it was the same vehicle without diesel. Even today a Taco is a great vehicle (though a diesel would make it so much better).
Though I’d love a current HiLux diesel. What a slow and steady beast.
Nissan 300ZX, only car I’ve ever thought looked stunningly beautiful
The 300zx is one of Nissan’s coolest sport cars, besides the silvia ofc ;) . It’s a shame that the latest Z is almost corvette territory prices because of those damn dealer markups!
Opel Kadett C GTE - no discussion
From my youth: 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1
From my 20’s: I started autocrossing at age 19 with a 1985 Corolla GT-S. Which for those that know Toyotas, know that the Corolla GT-S was the North American version of the AE86. Which is ONE of the greatest platforms Toyota has made. It ended up being my favorite car that I’ve ever owned. Adjustable struts/shocks, sway bars that would look at home on a semi truck and Hoosier tires. Plus some minor mods on the engine, which was also used in the MR2 of that era (4A-GE). It was a ferocious little car and I won a lot of autocross events with it. I was even keeping up with some of the MR2’s, which at that time (late 80’s) were the greatest autocrossing cars on the track.
Now that I’m in my 50’s, having participated in multiple forms of auto sports, then left that for skydiving… My opinion about cars is this:
A “fast” car is just less slow that its competitors.
Given that I’ve been north of 225mph with NOTHING around me except for a parachute. Cars are booooooring.
car I can’t fit into but would love if I could: NA or NB Miata. I’m 6’4. It’s not gonna happen.
car I could realistically fit into and afford someday (maybe): Corvette C5. They’re just beautiful.
The twins are so beautiful! I have a 2017 BRZ in blue and always enjoy it when someone appreciates them.
Yoooo 🫡🫡🫡 brz gang les goo!!
Kudos to Mazda, Toyota, and Subaru for making fun, cheap, rwd sport cars. Don’t forget to check your oil! ;)
Realistically, Mazda MX5 (Miata). But I want the hard top trim. I don’t really care much about the convertible aspect, I just like how the car looks.
I, too, prefer the hard top. The soft top just doesn’t do it for me.
