This post is based on pure fiction. Neither do I have the money to buy the cars nor do I own the cars themselves. It was just a daydream.
Let's say you want to do a trip from Germany to Croatia. You have a very good friend there that you haven't seen for a long time.
The circumstances:
You are filthy rich.
You're going on your own.
You don't have/need alot of luggage.
You want to drive by car, cause since Top Gear you know that you're faster than a train/plane/whatever.
You want to travel with style, so "riced" cars are not allowed.
What car would you choose and why?
Here's my shortlist:
Mercedes CL 600 / CL 63 AMG
It's a proper GT car. Built for doing journeys like that. And the person you're travelling to likes Mercedes.
Audi S8 quattro
I think it's comfortable. You have enough power. You like Audis.
Audi R8 quattro
Same reasons as S8 but it looks better.
Aston Martin DB9
It looks astonishing. It's a GT car. And it's done very well on Top Gear.
Bugatti EB16/4 Veyron
Well, I think it's the most expensive, the most exclusive and fastest way to go.
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano
It's good looking, has a fantastic engine and I think it's also pretty comfortable for doing long distances.
Pagani Zonda F Roadster
My personal dreamcar (Coupé or Roadster doesn't matter). The reason why I would choose the Roadster is, the person I would travel to likes roadsters.
Plus I've read that it's also very comfortable for a supercar.
So what would be your car?
Best regards,
Geist
