Somehow this car reminds me when I used to watch SpeedRacer, when I was about 3.  An Old Toyota 2000 GT

Too bad these puppies go for upwards of $500,000 nowadays...I have sat in one, it makes you feel like James Bond...(it was in a Bond movie as well).

Just a thought here. We want the baddest cars around, but you know what I hope is in the
dream to, a driving course!!! I'd really like to improve my driving skills!
I mean, I grew up at a race track, my uncle had a driving school and my dad started teaching us kids driving
from the age of 5 or 6 I believe. I had to learn to park backwards in a tight spot before he would let me drive forwards at all!
Then he teached me an my brother to powerslide in the winter... I thought my dad was a nutter when it came to driving.

But then I had a near accident while driving, and I then realized that he had done a good job teaching us kids to drive a car!
There was no accident, but there was a rather incredible car manoeuvre from my side... and believe me, when the car stopped
I was sitting there laughing like mad ... I finally got it... The skills was a lifeline!!! Boy was I glad for all those weird driving lessons.
My dad had teached me in precision driving...

So along with the dreams of cool cars, we should also acquire dream level driving skills! They are so good to have people!!!
I'm alive because of them! No doubt in my mind!!!

I first saw a picture of this car in the early 1980s.  I've wanted it ever since: the 1938 Phantom Corsair!  Totally the car of the future.

While the Ariel Atom and the Nissan GTR are on my short list of achievable dreams, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for THIS:
