So what car would you have?
I would have the Audi RS6 4.0 TFSI, this includes the dynamic steering, if I had the money I would remove the tiptronic and have a proper manual gearbox put in, but then you would loose power due to not having dual clutch selection.
Given this engine I still don’t think I would race like a lot of people do, its the engine its self I want, from a engineering and technological standpoint, I have a soft spot for cars with power and technology underneath, and this has it in spades.
If I had to go for something more realistic as the RS6 with the parts I want costs around £170k, I would love a little Ford Fiesta Zetec S Red Edition, its a little 1ltr 3 cylinder engine, but has 140bhp, again the engine amazes me, only problem I have is its a 5 speed manual, Vauxhall do a 1ltr 6 speed.
What would you have?
My bike.
Or alternatively, a penny farthing.

I know this sounds super lame but I already have my dream car... 2007 Saab 9-3 wagon with a Chipped 2l twinturbo diesel. Does 1000km on long trips(one tank) and is fast enough to get around. Plus it fits my bike in the back pretty easily. My favourite part though is being able to cruise at 100kph(60mph) at only 1500rpm.
Made this video the other day after I fixed a minor boost leak. Goes okay for 2l diesel.

Bog standard sequential setup. All I've done is got my mate who is the local mechanic to source a chip that does a basic remap from Europe. Its a v-tech chip tuning kit from memory(corny name lol). Not really into fast cars as i see them more as practical day to day sort of vehicle and also i have two motorbikes that i would rather take out if i was in the mood for some fun. but here is a dyno sheet anyway.
Side note: car would be a load quicker if i shifted earlier but meh.

Even though I can't (physcially can't or at least not safely) drive, the Tesla Model S for sure.
Anyone could drive a Tesla model s. It's just a big 5 seater go kart and i mean that is the best of ways.
It would have to be either a Elio Motors Elio
Or the M35A2
Or Both.

Unfortunately not. I have nystagmus and optic nerve hypoplasia and as a consequence I'm legally blind, so I can't get a license. In was thinking of purchasing a large plot of land someday and trying, but for now, I have my tech :).
Bugger, well if you ever find yourself in newzealand, hit me up and I would be more than willing to give you a pillion ride on something just as quick(triumph street triple r).
