I can't even tell you the hundreds of cars that I saw at the Car Show. But.. out of all the cars/trucks/suv's I saw.. the Jeep Wrangler always makes me happy. These are just the coolest/funn-est (is that even a word) SUV's around. In my mind it just ooozes "cool". If I had money to just drop on a new Wrangler I would. It would just be my summer/sunny day car, and on other days I would probably drive a Volvo XC90 (hey a boy can dream can't he).
But in the mean time I will continue to drive my AWSOME '01 Taurus with 160K.
So my question to you is.. what is your favorite car/truck/suv you would buy if you had a bajillon dollars just lying around!??!?!?

The Batmobile....easy.
We have a volvo XC90 and it's not that glamorous. You know...it's almost affordable if you lease it (buying one is ridiculous).
I already have mine. It is a 60th ann. 01 Jeep Wrangler, TJ with 30k. It nicely sits in the garage with the other toys (4 wheeler & husbands race z28 camaro).
I also drive a junker into the city everyday, a cavalier with 225k.If you get a jeep, i hope that you have a short commute everyday, they suck on gas. Good thing my husbands a mechanic.
My next car I hope is a used Legacy.

@ CJ. Nice dude.. I am hoping you want the "new" Batmobile.. becasue the new one is nothing short of awesome.
@Reagan Leigh... I would love to lease a volvo.. but we put waaaay to many miles on our cars to lease. We would get killed with overage charges.
@Tina.. Yah if had the money to get a Wrangler.. I dont think I would care much about the cost of gas.. because you know I would be a "bajillionare". Wranglers are just cool.. maybe someday..
I would buy a new Minivan {I love mine, but wouldn't mind an upgrade}...seriously a Honda Odyssey Touring. Ahhhh. Sweet heaven. DVD system. Navigation. Sunroof and plush heated, leather seats.
Have I officially crossed over to "soccer mom"?
And if I had no kids...maybe a little Mercedes SLK Roadster - their hardtop convertible. Bliss.
It's tough to choose...
Aston Martin DBS
Lotus Elisse
Pagani Zonda
Ferrari Enzo
Of course I'll have my VW Camper Van for surfing days. And reaching out to folks on the streets (with others) by night.
I'd have one of the following:
1937 Talbot-Lago T150SS http://www.mattandliv.com/talbot_lago_1.jpg
1938 Bugatti 57SC Atlantic http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rl_1938_Bugatti_57SC_Atlantic_side.jpg
1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900 Mille Miglia http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1938_Alfa_Romeo_8C_2900_Mille_Miglia_34_3.jpg
1950 Jaguar XK120 http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1950_Jaguar_XK120_34.jpg
You know what? I'll just take the whole Ralph Lauren car collection :)
Modern cars? I'm quite taken by the Aston Martin DB9 Volante: http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/jalopnik/2009/02/2010_Aston_Martin_DBS_Volante-topshot.jpg
Hubba! :-) But yes, I do prefer vintage (as long as I can hook up my iPod)!
i would totally love the Lexus SC430!!! Amanda
As you can see, Diane's the real car nut in our marriage.
But I do love a good car show.
Since we're selling our VW Eos (kinda expensive to take it to Ireland), I'll go along with Diane's desire for an Aston Martin DBS Volante.
@Jessica. The Honda Odyessy is the MOTHER of all mini vans. I think anyone wouldnt mind have one of them. I sat in one at the Car Show. soooo nice..
@Koalainscotland. You have excellent taste.. Plus you always need to have a VW camper.
@Diane.. Wow.. honestly was not expecting to see such a detailed list from you.. I think you just showed me up... on my own blog. :)
@Amanda.. Yes the Lexus are such nice cars..
@David.. Yah do you think you can make sure Diane doesnt make me look bad any longer on my blog.. =) Are Aston Martin big down under.. becasue not so much here in the States.. I mean I think Ive seen maybe like 8 total in my adult life.
You look like a Jeep kinda guy.
If I had a ton of money, I'd get a Dodge Viper. I probably couldn't fit in it well, but they are freaking sweet.
i like the layout of your blog man. and the jeep.
Adam, I can totally see you in a new Wrangler. Oh wait... maybe cuz that's you up there in that picture lol. But seriously, you're a jeep wrangler kind of dude.
I'd buy a chopper. I heart motorcycles, especially big fat choppers. And then probably the best Audi money could buy, manual of course. And while I'm on my vehicle spending spree, I might go get a huge hummer with a trailer full of four wheelers and sea-doos, and then we'd head to the Colorado mountains for a few weeks of "camping" :)
