Edited for NachtRitter
and now missing a link to 18 beautiful rare sports cars.
p.s
To be truthful Nacht, I thought the OP might of liked the cars, as his taste was of a higher standard.

Ariel Atom when it had the supercharged B-16 engine
My old CRX back
VW Rabbit Pick-up
Now I actually have the shell for the third but it is so far from being drivable it is still in the dream catagory. And number two will always be my first love but not likely to happen again.

Last 300s = Z32 = '90 to '96. The 86 (Z31) made way less power and looks like the wedge. I had a '91 Z32 Slicktop. I would love to have another.
Realistically:
Lotus 7 Clone (Brunton Stalker or something like it)
2nd Gen MR2
Subaru BRZ / Scion FRS

'87, or '88 Pontiac Fiero w Chev. V8 purposely set up for track road racing.
a 2nd Gen. CRX with body removed set up for quick body swaps such as downsized
'55 Chev., '70 Chevelle SS, Jag XKE in shortened race look, etc.....
Owned before, but in finished version would be a '60 Chev. Sedan Delivery set up
for competant cornering track use, plus slideouts for camping for 2, probably
powered by a GM Bio diesel w 2 smallish Turbos, and maybe a blower as well.
A couple of you have mentioned motorcycles....
'83 Honda CX 650 Turbo
'80 ish? Suzuki 1000
An early '80's BMW touring bike of some sort.
Also I'm thankful that a couple of you mentioned wanting either the first time, or
regaining a CRX.
I REALLY appreciate the '87 I currently have. It's been to WYO., MT. and back 4-5 times; it's been to Mt. Rushmore, up in BC., and Alberta; and to the Grand Canyon
and back. With my best of 62.9mpg., and the fun in handling; can you repeat the words..... "Gone when they pry the keys out of my dead cold hand?"

We are talking realistic? I might be poor in a box under a bridge, but COULD make it work.
Hummer H1 Alpha
VW Scirocco
Subaru Impreza WRX STi
In that order. Not exactly eco, but the H1 is an old dream of mine, and the Scirocco, imported, older, could work. The STi, could be old, or I could be poor ina a box and afford it brand new.
