Pretty sure the U.S. Abarth has the same 1.4liter turbo as the SS package Abarth in Europe.

It's definitely not a 5, and it is a 1.4L I4, but I think it's built by Chrysler. At least it used to be.

What your dream car? Or if you could have only one? Or maybe one in addition to your current garage?

I saw this La Ferrari in Casino Square, Monaco last year - that would do me nicely!

I am eternally torn between two as my ultimate dream car.

There are of course many to choose from:
Ford GT1075 (yeah... right...)
Lamborghini LP400 Countach
Ferrari Dino 246 GT
Jaguar XK-SS
Toyota 2000GT
Nissan KPGC110 GTR
Mercedes 300SLR Uhlenhaut
BMW 507

So many cool cars but there are two that stand above all else, partly because of their relationship with each other and how similar they are externlly hiding a totally different approach under their beautiful skins: the classic case of each being defined by their nemesis.

The one I won't show is the Ferrari 250GTSWB.
For now, today on a cool British Summer (such as it is), this one takes the spot.

I have simple tastes, a Singer 911

But in the real world, it would be a Guards Red Porsche 930, something that is actually attainable for me...

My absolute dream cars would be a Ferrari Daytona, Morgan Aeromax or a Jaguar E-Type Lightweight.

My dream car I might be able to afford one day is a Jaguar MKII or original S-Type.

these were two of the my cars - the porsche Carrera 4 -3.6 - without doubt the 911 is the finest driving car there is - there is no sound like that of an aircooled engine -and another the Nissan Fairlady Z on which i spent an obscene amount of money -everything uprated to handle over 400 bhp - also had the twin turbo Supra that had the same treatment - i'm in the fortunate position now of having been there and done that with cars and just settle with an old Ford estate for the dogs and fishing and an oldish Saab for day to day - its impossible to drive quickly anywhere now in the UK without the inevitable
