I look at cars often from a biggest bang for my buck situation and as such my current dream car is the 2008 Maserati Gran Turismo (see pic below). Maserati's depreciate very fast so I am planning on buying a 2008 in a couple years for around ~$50k. We'll see if it happens.

What is your attainable dream car if you end up making some good money with trading as we all hope to do or as some have already done?

Including a picture is a requirement for posting here.

A guy in my neighboorhod has a Gran Turismo S in Nero Carboni metallic black with the 20" Birdcage wheels in Grigio Mercury paint.....car is very SHARP!

I really like the new Skyline GT-R but lately after checking one out in person I am getting hooked on the new Panamera S (and I am not a Porsche fanatic by any means). A very different from the rest of the crowd looking Panamera S in Yachting Blue Metallic with Platinum Grey leather would be just fine imo!

I have gone back and forth between the continental and the gran turismo several times. Bentley makes some classy stuff. Nice choice.

Re: Cars
The new Fisker Karma looks like it might be a fun daily driver. It is a plug in Hybrid a bit like the one Tesla motors is producing.
