We all have one, a Car or Truck that by either its rarity, price or your own lack of funds routinely escapes your grasp. which one is it?
 
Land Rover Defender 110. It's completely irrational and I would be probably cursing myself for purchasing it, if I ever did it, but it's the car I dream of.
 
I would love to have an old, minimally wired Jeep Cherokee, in navy blue, with a 6-inch lift kit and snorkle exhaust.
 
Here's mine.

1977 Pontiac Trans Am Special Edition

And a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air.

Can't beat the classics
 
A Tank, or an armored car. What ever I get the money for first. An Armored car it would be easier to drive down the roads, and allowed to, but a tank..is a tank..

What ones? Classics of course!

You might be able to get your hands on a Rolls-Royce Armoured Car:

They're probably street legal with a license plate despite not complying with any modern vehicle regulations because they were built before vehicle regulations were much more than a local "we don't want automobiles here because they scare horses and small children" law.

Has headlights and taillights. No turn signals but can be fixed.. Just make sure the gun has no firing pin in while driving

For me, it's a Koenigsegg.

IIRC only eight are provisionally street legal in the US. Those are old ones about as quick as an F1 car and capable of handling the Monaco hairpin without any modifications ... which an F1 car can not turn tightly enough to do without a special steering and suspension setup meant just for that race.

Mercedes 280 hard-top coup from the late 60's to late 70's. Slightly more appealing to me than a classic Mustang.
 
That's not street legal. :p

If you're looking an absolutely cool movie car that's also street legal, might I interest you in Il Tempo Gigante:



BTW: The Koenigsegg it's "racing" is not going anywhere close to all out. That's a demonstration and Il Tempo Gigante was what inspired Christian von Koenigsegg when he was a child.

And your car is useless should it rain to hard in some states.
My Greyhound is the perfect all weather all terrain vehicle.

We're discussing dream cars. "All-weather all terrain" isn't a high priority for me because if the weather is bad mine will do what it does best: sit in the garage so you and others can look at it.

When I have to deal with snow I won't be driving a sports car. I'll be in an old AWD Honda CR-V which came standard with a folding picnic table.
 
My dream car is a car that can do everything I need it too
Fair enough.

I've learned that good all-purpose vehicles didn't start off as all-purpose but were instead single-role vehicles that just became all-purpose as people asked "can it do this too?" and discovered that it could.
