Which car makes you most sad because you'll probably never be able to afford it?
There comes a time in life (for me it’s 3-4 times a day) where you have an awful moment of realisation, that ‘the dream car’ is probably only ever going to be nothing more than a dream.
I love nothing more than a bit of ‘internet window shopping’ scrolling through the classified advert websites looking at cars I’d love to one day own. Every so often I stumble across something that makes me melt inside, something that triggers a desire of want so strong, that it’s almost uncomfortable.
This feeling is then usually followed up with a horrible sinking empty feeling. It’s that feeling backed up by the little voice in my head that says; "Realistically John, unless you win the lottery this isn’t ever going to happen, so tough luck, mate!" It’s horrible, it’s saddening and yet every day I put myself through the same dilemma.
For me, the 1995 Porsche 911 993 RS is exactly that. The one I’ve included as a screenshot above is a car that triggered that exact same horrible feeling just now.
I mean will you just look at it. It’s perfect, the colour is perfect, the wheels are perfect, the interior is perfect too, but yet it’s £225,000. Yep, two hundred and twenty-five thousand pounds. That’s more than $346,000(USD) or € 313,000(euros) a figure of money I’ll almost definitely never have to spend on a car. So I’m curious to know, which car does this for you?…
What car are you most struggling to come to terms with the fact you’ll probably never ever be able to afford?

Lancia Stratos, Metro 6R4, anything with more than 12.5HP to be honest…
My dream is a Nismo Z-Tune. Saw the one for sale it was 18th out of 19 cars, less than 2000km’s driven but it was around 320k euros. They are so rare, and seeing one for sale and realizing that I probably won’t own one makes me so sad ;(
1970 Plymouth Superbird

993 raul welt porsche, im not into customising porsches however raul welt kits look something else! love them.
other car i wish i could own is the Audi R18 e-tron from 2012 i loved those cars however i believe they are worth in excess of £25 million each….hopefully bill gates will give me money as an act of charity.
Pagani zonda, murcielago, diablo sv, ford gt, Ferrari enzo… To be honest though I can replace those with cars much less expensive and be happy.
