See for details yourself. You can discuss about if you like these cars or think they're dinosaurs or sth like that. I did only put cars on the list that still are build or will be build (So, no Ferrari Enzo or McLaren F1 on the list). If you find cars that would fit in this list , post them here.
(And yes, I'am a car nerd).

In my dreams am i gonna get a luxury a car in the near future.

Think for me realistically, a dream car would be the hawt looking new Evo-X concept, fuck i admit i hate mitsubishi because of their fucking weak shit quality components/engine, but the bloody Evo series blow me away.

[FantasyStrike]

For me right now, I would be happy with a Civic Mugen.

[FantasyStrike]

That car is around 30-40k. I prefer the old one better. Then Again I prefer imports better than exotics.

[StealDragon]

30-40k what? If your talking price its actually ~$77,000

[irecinius]

Aw, Mclaren F1 GG!!
I'd remove my balls with a ice cream scoop for one!

But since you said buyable...
ARIEL ATOM KICKASS!
I'll buy one as soon as I can!!

The car is just amazing, speed, manuverability... ha! cheap ass compared with everything you put there..
TopGear rated it second best just to Ferrari Enzo! (Cuz you don't have much confort~ No radio )

But look at the car, c'mon its the most beautifull thing there is!
