I have been contemplating responding to this post. So,...FYI.Are you sure wouldnt prefer a Lamborghini Veneno, or some other modern supercar? I mean we are talking "dream cars" afterall.The car I liked the most.
I had a 1964 Corvair high performance model. It had the high HP engine and 4 speed. It had stiffer springs, anti sway bar in the front and camber compensater in the rear. I had wide racing tires, modified carburetors, headers, and dual exhaust.
Weight 2,400 lbs.
Top speed 115 mph
Freeway driving @ 85 mph 32 mpg.
City driving 26 mpg.
The best part was that it was very nimble and responsive. This gave it a very high fun factor. I had it in a 4 wheel drift many times and never spun out. I beat the piss out of that poor car it was so much fun to drive.
