This is the most beautiful car ever made. EVER.

Note: I will be pinning this at the top of the main page, as it is actually important to me, and I'd like as many votes as possible.

 

Soon I will be buying a car, and I am torn between a few different types. If I had more money I could afford to buy one that has all of the elements, but I don't have that money, so I have to choose one or two. Without further ado, the types:

Luxury: This is pretty self explanetory - a car that is built to be really damn comfortable. Usually a larger car with all the goodies that make it fun to be in, but not really that fun to drive. Lots of leg and head room, can haul four or five people very comfortably. My instance of this type of car would probably be a BMW 740i type of vehicle.

Speed: This is a car built for high end speed. Doesn't really need to accelerate that fast, although it would be nice, simply built to have a very fast top speed. Preferably around 190 mph, although I doubt I'd get it up there. And yes, a drawback with this type of car would be fiery death. Doesn't have to be able to haul people around, doesn't have to be comfortable, doesn't have to be stylish. A good coefficient of drag would be a definate plus. I was thinking maybe a newer Camaro Z28 with a blown (not as in supercharged) engine or something, and replace it with a stroked small block to get it around 400 cid. Put in very tall gears, lower it, and shave off as much as possible for better drag.

Style: Okay, this car would be a cruiser. Doesn't have to be fast, doesn't have to have very much pickup. Hauls a lot of people, hauls them in style. Probably leather interior, convertable; a boat. I don't know about going with a nice sound system, though I probably would be too worried about the roof being knifed into if it's a cloth top. This car would probably have bagged suspension, bling bling wheels, slammed, and lots of chrome. An example of this car would be a late '60s or early '70s Cadillac El Derado or a Lincoln Continental.

Handling: This is the car I have been planning on getting, and will probably get despite this poll. High speed, though not to the extent of the Speed car, this is meant to handle like it's on rails. Sway bars, strut braces, the works as far as suspension goes. I live in the country, so this car would be a lot of fun to have. I enjoy going around corners fast, so combining that with living in the country, I think this is a good combination. I'm thinking BMW M3, as that combines Speed, Luxury (kind of), Handling, and Style.

Muscle: The car to pull trees from the ground. Okay, not really, but this thing is the torque master. Able to lay down hundred foot strips of rubber if the gas is hammered. Accelerates very fast, but doesn't need a particularly high top speed. Not a Luxury car, has elements of Style to certain people. This thing would Handle like Al Roker before the surgery, or slightly better than a freight truck. An example would be a '69 Dodge Charger with a 505 17-31 blown big block. Possibly a 200 shot of nitrous if I feel like dying in a particularly spectacular fashion. 4.11 gears would be a must, at least. Driving around on slicks would be a drawback, although I'd probably have a set of slicks for racing and a set of bald-ass crap tires for just driving around on.

 

That's all I've got so far. If you have a suggestion for one of the categories, go to the guestbook and leave me a message, or send me an email. I would greatly prefer not to drive an import from any country other than Germany, or possibly Italy if one of you feel like recommending a Fararri or Lamborghini. And for those of you who start yelling about "ignorant mullet dumbestics," calm down, I'm not against imports, I just don't want to be associated with all the ricer boy racers at my stupid high school. I know a Supra would be a good top speed car, but they are way too expensive now because of that one horrible movie. Yes, you know the one. RX7 is a good handler, but I hate the rotary engine. So yeah, please vote. I've actually been pretty nice and nonoffensive throughout this article thingy.
