Crush my talon and buy a f-22 raptor

LMFAO!

Ok ok I got this...

FIRST, I would buy the state of California and kick everyone out. Then I would have a team of my clones screen possible candidates to live there. I would have my version of the Berlin wall created between it and Mexico with automated Gatling guns, landmines, moats with alligators, everything. I'd have San Diego as my headquarters and have 90% of LA plowed to the damn ground along with any other crappy city. THEN I would start building road courses in the suburb areas that I plow and rally circuits in the rural areas like mammoth and big bear.

I would have a 5 story parking garage to hold my vast collection of cars and a huge airplane hangar next to it for all my custom work and shop space. The parking garage would have a lineage of classic european, domestic, and imports, and I'd have three of everything. I'd hand 10 GSXs over to NASA and tell them to use a similar styling to create the ultimate AWD car. Then I'd have them make me an AWD Viper.

Finally, I'd buy a few TV channels and come up with REAL car shows that would be aired 24/7. I'd make some scientists clone Angelina Jolie so I could have a mentally sound, virgin version of her. The rest of my unlimited funds will go to charity and non denominational christian churches, friends, family etc.
 
I would invent some DSM condoms for all the cars my DSM would rape...:hellyeah:

I would pay Mitsubishi too!! Pay them to build me at least 4 2gb dsm's two gsx's and two gst's and one 99 3000gt vr-4(make them lighten it up)..

I would build a imaginary DSM road car that wouldnt break(thats y its imaginary) And i would have a crazy setup like two holset hx40 turbo's set at 33psi a peice on a 2.6l build...I know its crazy but anythings possible with the right amount of money.
 
If Money was no issue, I would turn my GSX into a JGTC car. I would have the best aero engineers make a blueprint to modify the existing body of the gsx into the most efficient car it could be. I would hire the best body and fender guys to widen the fenders of the Car to fit monster sized tires on all four. Like fit 17x10's all around. And 315 wide Advan tires. The interior would be fully gutted, with cage and a single seat. The windows would all be lexan. And add an APR wing, custom rear diffuser and front lip spoiler.

Also somehow modify the center diff to let the car have a more desirable torque split. Besides all this, have a fully built motor by ams or rre. And the quickest spooling turbo for 800hp.
 
if money was no object......


-full paint job inside and out+ engine bay
-re undercoating the bottom of the car
-have every part of the suspension, and cross members powder-coated
-tons of metal parts anodized so they wouldn't rust again
-built motor pushing 800hp
-shep dog box
-and possible a fully functional T-top

but ill save a couple of those for my supra :)

oh and i would have my dash restitched like the new 370z dashes are
 
I've thought about it a little since I first posted: The property in question should be an old airport or air force base. I'll use the runway as a track for the cars, and it'll have a hanger for my blimp!

And I could put Eclipse body panels around the blimp's cabin. I figure that's more likely to work than turning my 1G into an airplane:aha:

Hmm.. Seems like I've heard of such a racetrack.. The name Stig comes to mind..
 
I would buy a GST Spyder convert it to AWD.
Then the body to a 2gb Talon.

I guess I'm not that only one who would like to do that.
I'd throw a stroker kit and a 16g on it. Keep it sleeper. Something that's fun to drive daily.

I'd also like to pick up a 1ga Talon and build it into a rally car. That would be so much fun.

For now I'll just stick to building the Talon bit by bit.
 
The first thing I'd do is buy the GST on Autotrader that has 2,100 miles on it. Then leave it in a museum.

Then I'd realize that I wouldn't drive it, so then I'd get a GSX, and restore it from the ground up, and make it look like the way it was from the factory.

Then, I'd realize that there's things more important than money and cars, so I'd probably go start a bunch of relief organizations for poor people and send poor students with potential to school.
 
WTF Well there are two things here.. sending poor "students" to school doesn't make sense, because they would already be in school to be deemed a "student," second, everyone has potential, you can never know what that potential is until opportunity is given.

Oh wow, great analysis :rolleyes:

I think (s)he meant helping people attend schools that they would not have the opportunity to on their own. I kind of agree with the idea, cause higher education is not always easy to get. Some people have a situations that make getting into the best colleges.

Scholarships are great, but you have to be really gifted to get them. Like an awesome sports player. Or near perfect grades. Or partial scholarships for those that aren't perfect helps out as well. Problem is some places won't let you in if you have 1 subject below standard, or if you failed a grade.

And grants are helpful, but only if you fit in the requirements. Of course, they have other programs for people who are below the poverty line to help them get into difficult colleges, giving them the chances they would not have otherwise.

Only draw backs is there are people that slip through those cracks and never have the chance to prove themselves. They were great in school, but they had to work, so their high school grades slipped. Or they were the town punching bag, so even though they are brilliant, they are depressed to the point they do only HALF the work and the grades drop out. Or perhaps they were relatively decent through school, but they can't get scholarships or grants because their parents make too much money. Seems the schools think EVERY Parent is going to pay for their kid's college education. Or if the kid makes a mistake, or is in the wrong place at the wrong time, they get dismissed. Like a disgruntled neighbor filing charges against them cause they broke their daughter's heart.

Personally I've had the some of the above issues. Parents were in trucking and brought in 40-60K, but they were paying for upkeep of the rigs, including gas, insurance, and food. They might have been making alot of money, but we were BARELY above the poverty line. So I couldn't get financial assistance until AFTER I turned 24.

And since my parents weren't on the school board, when I was harassed, I got stiffer a penalty expelled and sports jock, who was needed to win games, got a detention. He assaulted me, Go fig. Smaller schools focus on the sports, so the jocks get pampered, and everyone else gets hammered.

I scored exceptionally high on everything, except for english. The school refused to bump me up a grade for everything, but also refused to offer help for my english because my scores for the other subjects were too high.

So there are Gaps... I'm making it, but that's only cause I adapted and found a way around. *Shrugs* I still think schools need to pay teachers better and focus on the students rather than wether their jocks will win the championship that year. ((Bitter much? :D ))

Yeah, but what would you do to your car, to have it help you get more laid, if you had all the money in the world?

I think that this thread has become something different than the one the OP meant, but we had a good thing going here...

I would LOVE to make the valet at Monaco's Grand Casino ( I mean: Steve's Grand Casino) park this thing:

NOW BACK TO THE TOPIC AT HAND!!!!
 
If money was no object.

I would would transplant a Mivec 4g63 Setup into my 1977 Celica GT Liftback.

Would Also completly restore the body and order a set of oldschool Japanese wheels for it. I cant remember what they are called but I could find a set if I looked hard enough. Would also buy the sexy ass front lip and fender flares for it. JDM Smily Bumpers, and a 3 Piece spoiler for it. Would through a killer system into it as well.

Now as for a DSM Project?

Convert My 96 GST into near replica of a 99 GST.

2GB Front Bumper
S-15 Headlight Conversion
Highrise Spoiler
Evo 10 Spoke 5 Star Rims
Silver Paint
99 Black Leather Interior
OEM Mudflaps
AWD Conversion
Shep Rebuilt T-Case
Shep Dogbox
AGX Adjustables
Big Brake Kit
New Magnus Motorsports 2.3L Stroker
Evo III 16g
Walbro 255 LPH
750 CC Injectors
DSM Link 3
Custom Built Intake setup
SMIM
FMIC
Gates Belts all around

The engine mods list would be like a mile long.

Probably try to find some Old RockFos Paper Cone Subs and Speakers 2 RockFos 10s or one 12 in a good box.

I would also through a neon underglow kit. Blue, and Neons in the Hatch area on my subox/amp and neons under the hood. I just love them colorful lights. I would try and find some of the fexible LED ones for under the car because I do plan on getting it in the mud.

Big +1. I had many of the exact same situations, except my parents made a lot of money and that doesn't help when looking for help. Unfortunately in our society being good at throwing a ball is more important than being a creative writing genius. /hijack
 
If there is no limit on $$, I would get the following:
lan-evo 6 tme, evo 9 mr fq400 (F%$King Quick)
Caterham 7 R500

something sci-fi:
from the macross universe:
VF-1, VF-25, SDF-1

RX-78 Gundam

and may be NCC-1701 ENTERPRISE (no Trekkie but I love the ship)

On topic:

I would have my car fixed finally. :p I would likely go for Vette brakes, A jack's trans for great street gearing, enough mods to put 400 to the wheels.. And have GPS, DSMlink, Environmental controls, Radio where the factory radio sits, and finally have real sound. :) That nd paint the car jet black with a tasteful drawing of my character on the car some where.
