    Talking Speaking of dream cars...

    This would be one of mine:

    An Audi S8 with the V10 sourced from a Lambo Gallardo...

    LINKIE to movie...


    Those of you that don't understand German can at the least enjoy the pretty sounds and pictures that the S8 leaves behind!

    Hmm. V10, 500hp, 4 doors... why not just buy an M5?

    Why not buy an X5 with the V12 from a McLaren F1 in it?

    Now that's badass. The BMW is cool. Watching Hans Stuck drive it is even cooler.

    Granted, BMW is one of the greatest autos out there, however, I'm one of those that can't get past the styling. Now, if someone handed me the keys and said "Have at it!" then, well, that's another story...

    I think it's just the price of progress. I love the styling of the last gen S8, The current one? Not so much.

    Same thing for the current 3 & 5 Series Bimmers. The previous generation were beautiful. The current ones are aesthetically challenged.
