Wow, where to start....in no particular order, but likely most of the Ponies first...

'13/14 GT500 (purely about HP, name)
'12 GT350 (to commemorate Shelby's passing)
'68 GT390 Bullitt
'70 Boss 2 to match my '13
Nissan GTR
Shelby Cobra (I'd be happy with a kit car, doesn't have to be an original)
'84 Testarosa (first car I ever had a poster of as a kid)
'69 Chevelle (present for the wife)

Then the movie car replicas:
General Lee
KITT (Knight Rider)
'89 Batmobile
the Bullitt would fit in this as well

Then I'd need to find a Daily Driver.....

 

If I had the money, I'd love to restore a 1968 fastback Mustang, and make it my own. I'd also have a challenger and camaro in Srt8 and 2SS trims, respectively, sitting in my cavernous garage along side my current mustang. That's all for now, the exotics don't thrill me. I'll take a pic of this garage should I ever win the lottery. :P

 

Sure be nice to have one of Mr. Shelby's little tireburning AC Cobra roadsters out in the garage, just for nice days and summer evenings.

 

I like to break my dream cars into 2 categories; affordable, & unaffordable. In the unaffordable category there's the 69 or 70 Boss 429. In the affordable category there's a 70 Mach 1, 351C 4V. Always wanted one, & I'll have one once I get my Shelby paid off.

 

 

The Mustang has always been my realistic dream car. If money were no object, I would own a couple of Mustangs for sure, but if I had to pick just one I would have to say a Ferrari.

 

I'd have my current 2012 Boss, a 69 Boss, a 65 gt350, 2012 gt350, 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, 1963 split window corvette, 1970 Chevelle SS, and a few Mopars as well

 

Homestly id say Astons, Mustangs, a Stratos, and a couple Audis would make my fleet. And a new gallardo in Superleggera trim when it becomes available

 

Oh yeah, and an Ariel Atom!

 

I would get a Shelby first off then drive the Shelby to Nissan and pick up a GTR then go find a 69 fastback and plop a new coyote motor in it overall though the Nissan would be a winter driver with the Shelby being my dream car

 

Cool thread.

A Countach for sure!

And then I want an Eleanor clone!

 

Which Elanore?

 

Mine absolutely would be. If I had the money, a numbers matching 65 Fastback and the I'd throw all 3 Cobra R's next to it

 

I know there will be groans, but I love the Nicolas Cage Eleanor.

I'd take the Unique Performance G.T.500E, as they are recognized Shelbys.

 

From Gone In Sixty Seconds? Honestly thats one of my favorite Eleanors of all time

 

Both Elenors are from gone in 60 seconds The original had a 71 Mach and the newer one, well you should know it

 

When I was 14, I wanted a Mustang GT. My second car was a 94' t-bird with the 4.6 V8. Through my teens and 20's I never gave up that dream. Finally, I met my wonderful husband and we talked about getting something "fun." We decided on the Shelby. Never thought I would own a Mustang, let alone a Shelby! Brings back memories of the 88' fox body fast back my brother still owns! For me, the Shelby IS MY DREAM CAR! My hubby wants a 71' Chevelle, black with white stripes. I told him in a few years. As for now, we are "livin' the dream"

 

Great AMERICAN story!! Its all about life in the fast lane shreddin rubber in the name of a legend

RIP Carroll Shelby, your body may be gone but your soul lives on in each dream that proudly bears the Shelby name!

 

Ford GT

 

Sorry guys, but if the funds were unlimited a Mustang wouldn't even make my top ten list.

It is my number one choice of cars that I can reasonably own though!
