10 Cars: 5 you want to drive, 5 you don't

[0a]

What 5 cars do you want to drive, and what 5 do you have a surprising lack of interest in? This can and should be irrational.

I want to drive:

Original Mini
Bugatti Veyron
Ferrari F40
E28 M5
Bentley 4½ Litre

I have no interest at all in:

Mazda MX5
Lamborghini Miura
Any Audi
Mazda RX8
Ford Model T

What's on your 10 car list?

[soda]

I want to drive:

BMW 507
EVO VI TME
Red Victor
Lamborghini Countach
Bentley Blower

I have no interest at all in:

Veyron
Nissan GTR
Golf GTIs
Any Merc AMG
Any modern pork

[FloppyRaccoon]

I don't think there's a single car I wouldn't want to just have a shot in, for even a few minutes. Sure I might hate them, but I'd like to try them so I can form my own opinion.

But the cars that I'd particularly like a shot in:

Veyron
997.2 GT3 RS
F40
MP4-12C
F1

You wouldn't want a chance to spank an R8?

As a petrolhead, and out of inborn curiosity, there isn't anything I wouldn't be interested in sampling.

But to not wish to try a Model T Ford?

[Krikkit]

Do's:
Lambo Miura
F40
Maserati 250F
Williams FW14-B (If my head wouldn't come off)
Dodge Charger RT/440

Don'ts:
People carriers.

I'd try everything else just for opinion forming, but there's nothing to be gained from pottering about in a Scenic except depression.

[kambites]

Cars I wish to drive:
Everything, at least once.

Cars I have no interest in:
None.


I thought that was what being a car enthusiast meant?

That's what I meant to say.

Of course for many people though, cars are a form of jewelry or clothing rather than a means of travel or entertainment. It's about being seen in rather than driving.

When I'm issued with a rental I can't wait to drive it, I really don't care what it is, obviously the posher, more toys the better but every car is an experience not to be dismissed.

It is but sadly it seems hating entire genres of car is considered being part of the gang by many.

I found that an odd comment too! audi R8 V10, Ur Quattro, RS2 or a Silver Arrow! But then again I believe its quite fashionable to slag off Audis around these parts
