What non-Volkswagen cars do you want?
I only want one, really. Lancia Stratos. It is by far, the best piece of Italian automobile engineering I have ever had the honor to see.
This is the non-rallysport version. Very few were made:
It is probably my favorite car in the world, but what about you? What other cars would you like to drive? _________________ Vehicles I have:

Late '20's Mercedes "S"...not too picky about the particular year or variant!

1940 BMW 328 Mille Miglia. If my metalworking skills were any good for building an entire car, I'd gladly build one of these from the ground up with small-block Ford V8 power. (a VW engine, great as they are, wouldn't do this car justice and an original engine is scarcer than hen's teeth) |

Pantera DeTomaso
or
Lamborghini Countach. Ever since I saw a black one pull up and park on the street outside my school (when I was in Kindergarten), I have wanted one. For some reason I even knew back then what it was. I was the only kid clinging to the chain link fence watching it, lol! This was in 1987. |

No particular brand of car, but something from the late 50's with fins. Any kind (hardtop, Vert, 2-4 door, color) will do.

The Batmobile was built from a Lincoln concept cat:

My most lust after car list is very long, just too many incredible cars and bikes to chose from. I guess one that has always been near the top is the late 60's Mercedes prototype C111.
