you guys have got some awesome idea and i really appreciate this but i need a few more and somemore weird **** you dont see anywhere else ideas(but try to keep them realistic:no vertical takeoff cars or time machines you know) thanks again everybody... so far weve got
air conditioned seats
rotory engine
V8 turbo with AWD
19" wheels are still kinda rare
3.5L V8 600hp N.A. all aluminum 4 or 5 valve heads DOHC (small cubic inch but very high rpm operating range red line somewhere around 10,000 rpm's)
6 speed auto 2200 rpm stall or 6 speed manual
I like the sound of air ride as mentioned earlier by 1badta
rear wheel drive then 4 wheel drive at a push of a button
push button 4 wheel stear
carbon fiber guages and interior border
lots of polished aluminum
3 window coupe design around 3200-3500 lbs.
indipendent front and rear suspension
All of yours +
big gears with a big stall so it wont seem sluggish if an auto
If manual then paddle shifting, not my thing but innovative
3 bucket seats, 1 middle up front and 2 in back for a smaller cockpit (better areodynamics)
Rearview camera w/ video screen
I always liked digital gauges
a blower
wraparound windsheild (looks like one peice of glass)
targa top
Air ride that drops after a certain speed or raises to get over bumps
v8
AWD
AWS
exotic like qualities at low cost
VTEC technology in a V8
vtech hemi big block

how about a 3 wheel AWD car with lmtd slip in the front and belt/shaft drive like a motorcycle in the rear.

Of course with lot's 'O power

. That thing would be fun as he|| to drive in parking lot, and it's kinda different, more exotic lookin. Justa thought.

I think it would be pretty sick to make a quad turbo V8 engine. I think it's pretty rare and never heard of. Just throwing some crazy idea out there.
