The presents under the christmas tree? Prefer a gift in the garage! Which car would you like to get from santa?
We’ll kick for you; what is our dream car and why? Your own wishes in the comments under this article.
CasperH – Porsche 964 RS Club Sport
A Porsche 964 RS Club Sport without taartschep like. Preferably carried out in Guards Red, though I would in a apartere color if Speed Gelb or Mint Grün also the receipt not ask to go swap it. It is now almost two months ago and I still dream every night about that car. What a beast of a good device. It does not have a car in concoursstaat, because I’m just daily driving and I’m not with velvet gloves to tackle it, but we boenderen. Day in, day out. Delicious, can’t wait, I fix it in space under the carport. Well, what are you waiting for baardmans? Put the key in my sock!
Dennis – Aston Martin Rapide S
Why? Because Aston Martin, period. And practical with a family. A thick 6.0 litre V12 good for figures that are not there to lie. The block is currently more potent than the introduction of the Rapide S. 560 hp is good for a top of 325 km/h and a sprint from 0-60 mph in 4.2 seconds. The interior is finished to perfection and radiates only one thing: top class! With the car on holiday to Italy seems to me to be fantastic in the Rapide. By Germany, where the autobahn allows ” m just as well on its tail stairs to get ‘m then on arrival at the campsite in the sun right in front of your hired mobile home park.
Dizono – Tatra T77 (1938)
It is tempting to opt for my number 1 dream car, the Ferrari F40, but that would be a pretty selfish choice. No way that Ms. Dizono in such a uncomfortable thing would pick up with me to celebrate christmas on the Autobahn and Autostrada. No, christmas is ‘together’ and that can be perfect with the gordelloze front seat of this Czech artwork. Quiet cruising with Chris Rea about the speakers, in the background, the satisfied hum of the air-cooled achtcilinder and knowing that I have sitting behind the wheel of perhaps the most beautiful car ever made. Do me a christmas!
MauritsH – Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo
Although I initially would opt for a Bentley Continental T (no, not GT), I wonder whether the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. See a car from 5+ feet, but once in a tight parking garage to maneuver and the space on the back seat. The same could also be true for the Alpina, that’s the only drawback that me to shoot. More car than this, can you hurry not wish. Preferably in dark green, but gray may also.
RubenPriest – Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale
Not practical, but delicious. The MC Stradale is definitely not the best exot on the market, but what could it be? Forget the lousy infotainment system, the outdated interior and the up / down shifters that are longer than the nails of your mother-in-law. Turn that old-fashioned key(!) to and press the Sport button. Yep, that is a smile on your face. The valves are open and the sound of that massive V8 will never get bored. I want ‘m! Performed in the above composition like.
Sacha – Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster 722 S Edition
Maybe I fall in repetition, but the SLR 722 roadster is still my guilty pleasure.I also know that, for example, the SLS roadster is a better car. Or that a 599 SA Aperta is a better investment. But since this is a christmas gift goes, the latter is irrelevant, and with regard to the SLS. Better is not always more fun. The SLR is just so delicious, uncompromising no-nonsense brutal and maf. I have never been in the 722 (roadster) driven, so I can only speculate as to how brutal and crazy. But after my ride in the regular SLR, I was sold.
Wouter – A yellow 911 cabrio
Of course, a yellow, what color else? Well, red or Miami Blue is also nice. The last months, I have been in various Porsche 911 models driving and each time climbed the 911, any 911, is higher on the wish list. Very real, it is not financially to a fresh 991 to like it, but fortunately, it is second-hand offer also spacious. Only not in yellow, but that horde, I take it, however, if the savings account filled enough to get me there real pressure to go. A dense 911 is better than a cabriolet, but the household lacks now a homeless person quadricycle. Hence, dear santa: a yellow 911 cabriolet with manual gearbox and rear wheel drive please. It may even be a 996, the headlights I see still not behind the wheel. Gallery HERE!
Autoblogger – Jaguar XJ
The Jaguar XJ is already on my wish-list, it is time that santa clause comes through with what I really want. What XJ? Actually it makes me not so very much. The new XJ (facelift) is a beautiful car with a design what is, imho, beyond the executive limousines of the German brands, but also the old version is sought after in the house of Autoblogger. Timelessly beautiful. And in these times of downsizing, do you actually have at least a V8 to drive, while you still can. The price is low, so now I think about it: an XJ with the V12 please!
