Default Dream Car

No, its not another "what car would you choose if you could have any car" thread.

Say you were to design a car, it doesnt matter what brand, what qualities would you give it.

My dream/perfect car.

RWD platform
50/50 weight distribution
2.0L I-4 Turbo(Garett ball bearing)
6 speed manual gearbox
6 speed twin clutch SMG style gearbox(option)
Under 2800 pounds with A/C, bucket seats etc
No driving aids except ABS
Clutch type LSD
Stereo as a dealer installed option
16" alloys
Yokoahama AVS ES100 tires for OEM rubber

Still undecided on how it would/should look

NWD (no-wheel drive, since it flys) jet-propelled hover car, with F1 blaster exhaust, self extracting wings (for mach 1 cruising), titanium alloy shell, 10,000 shot NOS, and radar built in the stereo. Oh yeah, it'll be Milano Red h:

I said street port, not bridge port. Stuff like bridge porting and single turbos compromises streetability when you can make tons of power other ways. I wouldn't mess with that stuff unless I was going for 450+ whp.

Ya I know, I was just commenting on how I love the sound of a bridgeport. I know someone with a T51 powered FC and a Bridgeport. Fast as hell and loud as a jet plane, but of course you cant drive it on the street
