I'll take a bucket.
A "T"- Bucket Roadster!
In spite of all the cool Japanese, Italian, compact, turbo, and AWD metal I've owned, my real love is in the Hot Rods.

In reply to SVreX:
Ooooh, yeah. Gimme a '29 Track-T, complete with flathead. I'd Megasquirt it and back it with a T5.

- 80's Chysler minivan, tubbed with big ole nasty slicks in the back, a Mopar big block up front, cutouts so it's only loud when I want it to be, and a trailer mudflap going across the entire back of the van so you can't see the slicks from behind.

This list changes all the time for me, but there's always a few constants.
AC 911
Porsche 356
Healey Sprite
Lotus Esprit
Lotus Elise
105-chassis Alfa
Citroen DS.
Any JDM-styled car from the '70s. Preferably old Skyline with tacked-on flares and Watanabes
Any Italian cafe-racer style motorcycle. Moto Guzzi Le Mans would be cool.
Archaic 1920s/'30s British motorcycle, something with backwards controls that takes a whole lotta effort to kick start.

AWD turbocharged monster with a really loud blow off valve (STI/EVO I'm not picky)
