All awesome cars, but i’m with Deano here - Shelby for the win!!!

Old 1967 shelby 500 does it for me;

me three   drool

going down the Shelby path it would have to be a 427 Cobra for me.

If the meaning of life = dream car, it surely has to be convertible!

I’m pretty happy with MY68VW. It’s close to the ultimate beach/snow car and I don’t need excessive funds to own it, looks good, goes fast and still classy.
Mini Moke is my top beach car. Motor home for snow.

If it came down to one car to fit all desires no budget; I might go for a Mclaren F1 - with the central drivers seat I could still fit surfboards or snow gear in the cockpit.

And as well as a few toys, I’d get a joint like this in Japan!!!!!

Your second home/holiday pad?

More seriously the meaning of life, for me, is being content with what you have.
I recently heard someone saying that to be content you have to “stop wanting”.

Today I’m pretty content:

Aston Martin DB9 Vantage as the about town car.

 

this. But i’d go the DBS.

and a mercedes SLS AMG GT (aka formula 1 safety car)

of course I’d need one of the new Nissan gtr’s as a track car. ..

if I was cashed up I would so end up being the next Jay Leno. So jealous of his car collection.

Thank you Mr Spaz,
Yeah I can’t judge people because I drive an WRX, before that I had 2 RX-7s. Only old ones that I could afford (I’ve never owned a new car).

But even as much as I love cars, I was surprised that this thread took that turn. Especially amongst boarders. CARS WILL NOT MAKE YOU SATISFIED WITH YOUR LIFE. I promise you.
In fact sports cars will cost u lots of money and sometimes make life harder.
They are definitely nice things to have, but that’s all.

I think the meaning of life is different for everyone, and I think a lot of people can go their whole lives without ever finding what they are looking for, far less LIVING IT on a regular basis.

Yesterday I went for a surf and finally learnt how to really ride all the way across the wave. Achieving the progression that I’ve been after and enjoying the hell out of it. That one moment justified everything I do in my life to be where I am. And for a boarder of any kind, that kinda thing happens all the time. As I’m sure you have all felt.
That’s when I’m not only content, but feeling justified and truly happy.

Andy, you found the meaning of life I suspect; those few seconds of pure joy in a world of conflict.
