The Radiator Arms

The Dream Cars We Loved as Kids vs What We Want Now


Listen Later

In this episode of The Radiator Arms, Ant, Will, and Ben (from Mile By Mile Valeting) look back at their dream cars — and how those dreams have changed with time, experience, and reality. From childhood posters of exotic supercars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche to more attainable modern classics, we explore how growing up, budgets, and practicality reshape the cars we lust after.

• How our dream cars evolved from childhood posters to real-life garages

• Unrealistic vs. realistic dream cars — and which affordable exotics still tempt us

• The influence of money, maintenance, and availability on car choices

• Iconic moments that shaped our tastes: games, films, and car culture

• Cars we still want today — and which might just be within reach


What was your dream car when you were a kid? And has it changed now? Let us know in the comments.
