No that was a RX-7 in TFATF. The Supra I pictured is owned by a guy over at mondernmusclecar.com. It is by far the cleanest Supra I have seen.

The McLaren F1 was designed with 3 seats. The drivers is in the middle and the passengers sit beside just a smidge further away from the dashboard. The big joke when they first came out was; Take your wife and your girlfriend for a ride, so you'll have better weight distribution .
I can't believe I'm saying it ......but I would want a French car.....good god what I won't do for vehicles.
A Renault Espace F1 Concept. Based on a Williams FW16 Grand Prix car. Carbon Fibre body. 0-124 mph (or 200 kph) in 6.9 seconds! 0-60 in 2.8 sec. It is one ugly bastard, but with one of the great all-time n/a 3.5 V10 F1 engines, the Renault RS4.
It ain't pretty, but you'll only hear its 18,000rpm worth of shrill exhaust note and it's ugly mini van a$$ streaking away in the distance. I'd be the envy of all soccor dads and moms.

Man that would be a hard one. I want a 1970 Hemi Superbird or a 1966 Mustang GT-350 Convertible (only 11 produced and one is missing). I dream of finding the missing one all the time. If anybody knows where it is I'll give you a $10,000 finders fee.

Thumbs up

My number one car would absolutely be the 1986 Ford RS 200 evolution rally race car. they all came with the 2.1 liter Ford Cosworth engine with all wheel drive. 3 versions were available. they were 450hp, 600hp and 750hp. the 600hp version goes 0-60 in 2.8 secs. But the one I would want is the 750hp full rally race version. it goes 0-60 secs. in under 2 secs. these cars were some of the fastest accelerating vehicles ever made in the world. HolmanMoody had one recently that they must have sold with the 600 hp version and showed all the performance specs of the car. just awesome performance. thanks 95rcobra.

Red face Chevy

If I could have any car in the world I would choose the Camaro ZL-1 Concept..(V8)
What about the 604ci Mustang that Coletti made to battle Moss's ZL-1 concept. If I remember correctly it beat the ZL-1 in the quarter.
I got to see that orange 'Stang at the Woodward dream cruise. I'll tell ya a 429 bored out to 10 liters looks pretty sweet in an engine compartment. Yup thats right----4 cylinders=5.0 liters (302ci)

You guys should have heard it when Coletti fired it up and went for a ride.......lets just say the exhaust does't sound too restrictive

The Mclaren is very nice but I think that I would have to have a 65, 427 cobra. Carroll Shelby made two that year that were twin supercharged. One was for him and the other was for Bill Cosby. I would take either of the two. Here is a pic of one of my boss' cars. He also just bought a tt 911.

Well...

If you are talking about only owning 1 car and still having to go to work every day and drive on long trips and generally do the same things you do now in daily life, I'd have to say I'd stick with the Lightning, in black of course.

I'd take the modified 1965 Shelby that they had in "Gone in 60Sec".
