your 3 favorite cars?

my three favorite cars are:
bmw 6 series convertible
hummer h2 sut
and cadillac xlr-v

I like this question as I was discussing this with a friend just the other day.
My first favorite car has to be the Volkswagen Beetle. I'm not talking about the "new" Vokswagen "bug" that is supposed to pass as a "peoples' car". I'm talking about the beetle that you can repair yourself with a screwdrive. If you damage a fender, anybody can take off six screws and pop another one back on. The windshield washer is powered by the pressurized air from the spare tire. Of course you freeze in the winter because the so-called heater was, well, useless.
All in all, this was a great, practical car that was efficient to run, easy to maintain and, yes, fun to drive.

My second favorite auto is the Mustang 5.0 -- any year. I especially love the redesigned Mustang introduced in 2006. It was suggestive of the Mustangs from the Muscle Car era of the late 60s but with the sophistication of the newer Euro cars. Another great car. There is nothing like the acceleration of the massive five litre engine powering a relatively light Mustang body. In the day and age of high gas prices, this car is decadence personified.

Wait, I spoke too soon, where gas guzzling decadence is concerned, my third choice has got to win......the HumVee. Yeah, we all fell in love with this car when we saw it racing across our tv screens in the first Iraq War. When "souped-up" versions of the HumVee began racing across the Baja desert in off-track racing, I was sold. It's a great, tough and wildly impracticle vehicle to own but I love it.

Actually if i ever have the money to get a really nice car, other than going for a sports car, id probably get a jaguar. You know its a fast car, but also very luxerius.(sp?)

This is easy:

#1 The one I really, really cant afford

#2 The one I really cant afford

And

#3 The one I mostly cant afford. This one in Black with leather though.

Im gonna say, in no perticuler order:

1) It has to be the DB9, this car is sexy, very fast and super smooth.

2) This one is a Bentley Continentle GT, for the same reasons above.

3) Well im gonna say my car, its a Chrysler 300C, it is a super smooth car, very stylish and has a 5 ltr V12 hemi engine in it.
