I've loved the DS for ages. There used to be one in Brandon when I was a kid and I recall chatting to the owner (he knew my Dad), just the simple explanation of the suspension was mind blowing for a kid. We saw one in Portland this spring and every time we'd pass it (sadly parked, but licensed) I would think that it was heaps of awesome.

I think we should make a start on Dale's list :lol: :lol: (just 'cause we love you).

1. Mercedes W123 (you still secretly lust after this car)
2. 1970 Boss Mustang
3.
4.
5.

My entry in blue. Dale and I combined can't afford a 1970 Boss Mustang, though.

:lol: This should be good...

Incidentally, I don't secretly lust after a W123, I openly lust after one...

My entry in red. After a day spent with mega dollar exotics the Trabi is THE car to bring you back down to earth. :lol:

Hey Dale, you find the right two stroke, they're kind of neat. Drove a DKW 1000 one time and it was a pretty peppy little car and handled well. It was also a two door hardtop so it was cool. I know where there is one if you wanna have one. :D
