Christmas is over,and my birthday is fast approaching. So I think it is a great time to look within myself for some real greed.
This is what is really on my I want it really bad list:
Guns
Everything on my previous post about full size pistols. That takes care of that...
Springfield M1A1
This was the main battle rifle for a short time before the plastic M16 replaced it. A 7.62 round makes it a little hot, but it is much better than the stupidly light 5.56.
Accurate and dependable it is the ultimate hunting/Zombie killing weapon.
Keltek KSG
Sweet fancy Moses... A bullpup (gun with the grip in front of the breech) 12 gauge shotgun. 14 rounds. Semiautomatic. Such an awesome design. It has no real possible use other than to be super awesome.
Heckler & Koch G36K
I know, I know. I hate the 5.56 round. It sucks. It is a high powered .22 that the military only uses because people no longer knew how to shoot, and were afraid of the recoil of the larger round. BUT lots of cool designs have come of it and the HK G36K is super cool.
A bullpup design with all kinds of accessories and neat stuff. HK is known for quality... but crappy customer service.
Cars
Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon
Wow... I wish they were not owned by the AWU, and the Government... This might be the only new car out there that would be worth the payments.
GM built this thing as kind of a marketing goof. I can't imagine any soccer moms wanting to buy it. Why?
It has a 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine. The same engine found in Corvette. That beast has 556 horsepower and 551 lb.-ft. of torque. It is the most powerful engine offered in Cadillac’s history. It will go 0-60 in four seconds.
It has a Magnetic Ride Control that automatically senses if you need the ride of a Cadillac or if you need the ride of a Formula 1 race car. Rumor is that it will be priced at about $62K. A laughably low price. There is no possible way that GM will make money on the car. To add to this theory, the silly thing is available with a manual transmission. Really GM?? Who is going to buy this thing? ME!!!!
Motorcycles
Ducati 848
Fast, sexy, full of awesome. It is the ultimate super bike.
Yamaha Star Raider S
Yamaha's new cruiser design. It is supposed to replace the Road Star Warrior, I don't think it does, but it is still super cool.
Airplanes
Cessna Corvalis TT
What used to be the Columbia 400 is now the Cessna Corvalis TT. Slippery as all get out, it is the fastest conventionally powered, fixed gear production airplane in the world. I recently had a flight instructor tell me that it was too slippery. It was too fast. What a cool problem to have!
Mooney Acclaim Type S
The fastest single engine production aircraft in the world. It also has a range of 1400NM. I could fly nonstop from Dumbfuckville to New York, or Los Angeles. It is the ultimate single engine long distance cruiser.
Cirrus Vision Jet
Not much range, but wow what a design. It is sex in the air.

Matt, you need these things like Osama Bin Laden needs another grudge to carry.
Hey man, if he didn't have grudges our military would have nothing to do!
