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

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 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

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"
