Thanks.

Strangely enough, I've never been a fan of 2 door cars so maybe when I get to the mid life crisis stage, I'd go for a Vantage or R8.

lol the V12 is my favorite thing in the world. If you ever do get one, although it seems as if you will not, please post a video pic of it revving.

My car - 1989 Mercedes 560 SEL - built like a tank. They sure don't build them like they used to. While I love the look of the new Mercedes, I've heard nothing but nightmares from friends and mechanics about the complexity of the new models.

Family car - 2000 Volvo S80 - safe for the wife and kid.

One of my all-time favorite cars. I get giddy when I see one on the highway. The SEC really gets me excited even more.

Very nice trio. The W12 would be my favorite.

I solemnly promise that if I ever get a V12 Vantage, I will record a video of it being revved and post it here for you.

Thanks. The W12 is my favorite and highly pampered one.

My thoughts exactly. Has anyone seen the last top gear episode where Jeremy talks about the death of the automobile?

I would be more than content to drive a V8 Vantage for four months of the year if I had to take the bus for the 8 months of the winter (Canada).
