I enjoyed watching the Speed Channel series 101 Cars You Must Drive... But I didn't agree with all of the choices. There certainly were some interesting picks, but some were a bit lame. I think they chose about 30 of the cars based on what was available.
So, I decided to write a series on the 101 cars I want to drive... And that means 101 posts about cars. I have been working on posts since October 20th, and I am up to 11... and I have the next three decided. But I will just toss out the current selections for your viewing pleasure.
- Ariel Atom
- Scorpion 4x4
- Mallett Corvette
- Bowler Nemesis
- Lancia Stratos
- Jeep Wrangler/CJ
- Shelby Mustang
- Ford Bronco
- Lotus 7
- Subaru WRX STi
- Any Desert Racing Trophy Truck
- Shelby Cobra
I think there are some interesting rides on the list. I'm really curious as to what will come up next...

I'd love to hear from you...
You should have an American version of that BBC show with Graham Norton (I think that's the guy). He goes all over Europe driving fantastic cars! A perfect fit for you, and what fun to read the posts and see the pictures! ;}
Laura - I think you might be thinking of Jeremy Clarkson... and he is a RIOT. You should run across several Top Gear clips in the series. I would have a great time doing something like that...
The Aerial Atom at #1 is right on!!! I'd also add the lotus europa as a special mention, the car can be a terrifying drive!
Lane, yes that's they guy! You'd be terrific as his American counterpart! Just give me a '65 GTO!
Jonathan - They aren't in any particular order... I will certainly have some more Loti.
Laura - I miss the brutality of my 65 Shelby Mustang...
