Your fantasy vehicle!
Well, Cynic, the dubber of geekiest threads ever, apparently named this thread the second geekiest thread ever, and I know that I can do better.
So here goes. Which vehicle would you take as your own, if you were given your choice?
Bear with me as I get this set up, I know that polls are causing problems recently.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
I chose Wonder Woman's invisible jet because I think that's where she keeps her invisible thong, and invisible dildo which I'm pretty sure would fetch a hefty price on eBay!

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
I'm gonna give a close but no cigar for the Millennium Falcon.
While it would satisfy the hot rodder in me, I don't think I could handle the stress of it breaking down just as an imperial star destroyer is bearing down on me.
How about a MacLaren F1? At $950,000, it's just as much a fantasy as the others on your list.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
Sorry, I think 9 is the maximum, so I can't add any more. There are many, many great rides that I have no doubt left out, including some that I had to cut like James Bond's Aston Martin and Optimus Prime.
It's too bad we can't have 20 poll options
But on the bright side, I think there's a pretty good variety there!

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
Tough one... I'd say either the Defiant or the Falcon. Probably the Falcon though since she doesn't require a full crew and engineering team to run.
Oh, and it's called the X-Jet.

My Dream Car? The '93 Ford Taurus Station Wagon, preferably White, but if I can't have one of those, I would settle for K.I.T.T.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
While the Defiant has firepower out the wazoo, and the Falcon is just badass, I'd rather have the feeling of a small craft, like an extension of my body. The large ships just don't give you that "behind the wheel" feeling. I'd rather have the Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop, or an X-Wing (one of the more functional ones). Fast, maneuverable, intimate, and loaded with firepower.
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

Hey!!!!! Where is the '70 HemiCuda from Phantasm?
I'd vote for that! I would also vote for Blade's 1968 Dodge Charger! These two cars are in a dead tie for my all time top dream cars.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
I can't believe the Delorean from Back To The Future isn't on there!
I voted for the Batmobile. I want the one from the movie though, not the TV show.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
Well, Batmobile came really close, but only the Tim Burton one, not the crappy overdone models... I like the ones from the first two movies.
The winner, though was the Millennium Falcon; who doesn't want a space ship? Plus, hey, I'm pretty handy, I'm sure I would be able to work out all the bugs eventually!
Of course, for today's technology, I'm sure everyone here knows the only car that I really, really, really, really, really want is the Bugatti EB Veyron with the 16 cylinder engine. Now that is a car without compromise.

Just to keep the Mopar tangent going, I'll take Kowalski's '70 Challenger R/T from Vanishing Point, hold the amphetamines.

Re: Your fantasy vehicle!
The Green Goblin's slide thing would definitely be the most fun, but the Batmobile would be the coolest. Vroom vroom!

Heretic! Here's the One True Batmobile:
I like that much better than the movie versions because it looks almost like a regular car (like some from the early 1960s, anyway), not so much like a cartoon car.
