4. 1967 Shelby GT500E " Eleanor"


5. GT500 Mustang Super Snake with glass roof for everyday Not pictured as it doesn't exist


6. GMC Topkick and a nice trailer to haul everything and then some


7. M1A2 Abrams Tank for those "road rage" days


8. Custom 1996 JEEP Cherokee for winter/offroad Yellow/black 383 stroker, DANA 60 F/R, 4.88 gears, lockers F/R, 6" long arms, 37X12.5, Winch F/R, and a page full of other goodies

Here is what I run daily a stroked 4.0L with a 5" lift, 31X10.5 BFG A/T ko and a massive stereo (aprox 2750W RMS and that isn't all bass ) I have also since tinted the fronts back to 5% as the cops decided that 20% was too dark and made me pull it. stupid Utah state laws

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

OMG Alex! Those are some sweet rides! I understand now what you meant with dream garage....

MPWR....what Bimmers are you rolling? I´m a BMW driver myself....

I have this 120i hatch at the moment...since I´m a full time student. I hope to get something more powerful when I graduate. For now the 7000 RPM redline keeps me entertained







(sorry about the numberplates, and polluting the post. Hope you don´t mind Spideyman!? )


Cheers!

Emil

Nice, I like 1-series hatches. Too bad you can't get them in the States.
As far as I know, Andy drives M3.

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

This is a cool thread. Looks like many of you guys drive BMW. Lots of common factors.

My observation so far:
1) most of you guys have cat(s)
2) drive cool cars
3) Many of you guys' name is Steve


I myself a big BMW fan and try to build up a dream garage! The car inside of the garage is E34 525i which is my dedicated winter mobile here in Chicago area. It has snow tires mounted 365 days a year!



Finally organized all of my tools and have a decent lighted work area.


And this is my latest addition. My wife and I went into a local BMW dealer to buy M5, but ended up driving this out from a Merc dealer next door...



Ultimately, my dream car would be Porsche 911 GT2(993)!!!! Some day!

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

Hey guys I have nothing so cool to show in my garage than models' boxes

And I'm not a BMW fan, but this year I gift myself my new girlfriend , you see now dirty after last week ride



and over her deserved rest in my workshop (Yep I know, time to spring's tidy up...)



I must say I'm falling in love with this american girl

On the other side she's reality, so if I can really dream.... this is my banned dream:





An old SC developed with Almeras flares and spoilers, and tuned to soft Group 3 racing specs, to roll out on a trailer with my dear old Volvo and ride to climb races here around on Alps

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

@Cifenet .....Great to see another BMW enthusiast! I LOVE your Garage. I would really like to have a neat one like that! And I bet that 525 is A LOT of fun in the winter, getting some nice drifts on.....

@gio....I Did´nt know that you´re a Mountainbiker! I also like to get dirty on the trails....And that 1/8 Pocher F 40 is not a bad thing to have in your workshop. Your forbidden dream looks like a lot of fun as well. Hopefully you can realize it someday!

Cheers!

I have a 95 M3 (mine) and a 97 318ti (my wife's). I lost all the decent pics I had of the M3 in a hard drive crash (have to take more when the weather improves), but here's the ti.

Gio thats why most of you europeans are fit unlike us americans. We didn't know what a bike was until you showed us.




Nice bike though.

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

Too many Beemers here, so I thought I'd even things up a bit with my favourite garage:



If I had more room I'd like one of these in there too:



which would go well with this:





Oh and Gman, if it's any consolation I've been out on my '97 Kona Lava Dome today...still love that old bike!

I'd be happy with the Zele International demo R-35. Oh, and a new Cadillac SRX for grocery trips.

Re: Your Dream Garage.....

What's up with Bimmerheads and modelling

Alex, I love your M Coupe!

Cifenet, I love your AMG! Congrats on your purchase.

Emil, cool-looking 1er hatchback!

Andy, take more pics of your M3. Didn't you say that it's Estoril Blue! I still think Mauritius Blue's better

I, myself currently drive E53 X5 4.4i with Sport Package in Topaz Blue which I bought last year (decided to move to the dark side ). I also still have my old W202 C280 with Sport Package that needs cooling system overhaul.

I never consider Bimmers before as I always have been a Mercedes enthusiast. But SUV-wise, no other SUV beats X5 in terms of driving dynamics IMO.

Back to topic, my dream garage would be X5 M to haul the dogs and groceries, 993 Turbo S for weekend trip and SL65 AMG for daily driver.
