What cars do you want, realistically? What is next?
I have always had kind of a plan on what I would want to buy if my income were to grow. So realistically this is what I want
Next Car Id want : 77 308 GTB
Next step up would be a 355, prefereably a GTS, but Id love GTB as well
Next would be a Diablo, more than likely an early car. i would easily skip the 355 if I could afford to move into a Diablo, it is THE car I want to own (besides rediculous supercars)
After a Diablo, Id probably want to move to a 360CS, although I would have a hard time getting rid of a Diablo for a 360!
In the 300K range or so. I think I would go with a Murci Roadster, unless the money was right, Id go Carrara GT
From there, it would be F50, Zonda, Koengiseg ect.
Realistically, I plan on owning a 355 and or a Diablo for sure, anything over that would be a lovely suprise. Does anyone else think like me?

Well, since I currently drive a beat up Ford Ranger, anything would be a big step up for me.
Right now, my plan for the end of the summer will be to pick up either a Miata or (hopefully) an E46 M3. Hopefully a 996 or early 997 C2S would come another 5 years after that, and I won't worry too much about anything beyond that. The cars I listed above will be DDs assuming I'm not married and haven't started a family before the age of 30. If I somehow end up with a wife and kids in the next 7 years, swap out the Porsche for an M5 or CTS-V.

I think like you sometimes, but I wouldn't use the word "realistic" to describe my lusting and longing for cars like that.
Realistically, I will probably buy a lightly used example of the latest and greatest NA, RWD Porsche 911 (either a C2S or a GT3) when I finally finish school seven years or so from now (2 years of undergrad left, 2 years of grad school, 3 years of law school). In the interim, any new car(s) I pick up will be gifts from my family.
