Optimus Prime
I'm really fortunate, most of the things I want are both attainable and unnecessary. Both my girlfriend and I have good jobs with the government, so money isn't a tremendous issue for us, and we can afford some luxuries, like my fetish for knives and jeans and electronics, and her thing for shoes and kitchen gadgets

That's awesome DougNg ! I had no idea what "Optimus Prime" was so I googled it. It's a character from the Transformers franchise ? That can't be too expensive. Weren't they giving em away with McDonalds' Happy Meals ?
I'm fortunate as well, DougNg. I'm wa-ay-ay beyond basic requirements. But I'm a single-income household (in The Bay Area, no less) so I've gotta be a bit more restrained when it comes to pissin' away $$. I also have a GREAT job though, in an equally fab profession (embedded systems software). OK, maybe I'll be crying to you guys some day that I got laid off but in general, if you're good at what you do in high tech, even if your job gets "outsourced", or if your division shuts down – you'll be one of the last to get laid off and you'll find a new job quickly. [That's what I keep telling myself].

No, I meant I really want a robot from outer space
A robot from outer space is cool! If we are thinking in these categories, I'd like the machine that creates a perfect woman just the way I want her. The trials to achieve perfection will be a lot of fun. And once perfection is achieved, one could decline the flavors, so to say.
To put things into perspective, the mega-yacht is still more likely than that! ROTFL.

Wow, that would make the Veyron the best deal on the automobile market. A superlative car you can get for less than cost. It literally pays to be rich!
Seul, why do you think you are too young to pull that off. From the pics I'd guess you to be in your mid twenties. That jacket is basically the same as RAF bomber jacket. You have to think that the people who were wearing those were in their mid twenties. So you'd actually be in the ideal age range.
There was a fashion in the 80/90s for these in France. A lot of youngsters (16-24) were wearing them and it actually didn't look out of place. Except for the feeling one got that the type of guy who was wearing them was from the suburbs and was dealing drugs and mugging people to afford the jacket. So with this social connotation in mind that might be rather a problem than the age consideration. Fortunately, the memory of who was wearing them is remote now and is not in the collective conscious anyway.

I'm almost 29… I age well
The Veyron is probably the best car out there. The '08 Nissan Skyline GT-R comes close, though. Therefore my 2nd fav car haha...
Anyway, add to the list of things I want:
-
Yes he lets me drive both. The 430 is a fantastic car‚ brits love the sound of an Aston Martin‚ but the Ferrari sounds amazing…..have you seen the 458 Italia ? My bro went to the pre launch show at Maranello‚ said it was an amazing event - as a petrol head he was totally in his element.

NICE! I have seen and heard the 430 Spyder in Lugano. Very beautiful and sexy car. Just a bit too ostentatious for my taste. I really liked the 456GT and the BB512i of yesteryear. Even the 599 Fiorano leaves me kind of cold. As does the California. But mind you I've never driven one. But I am a huge 911 fan. If I had the dough that's what I'd buy first. Currently driving an 06 GTO. Very fun car. Amazing torque and power. Rides like a boat compared to real sports cars though. Still as fast as a 911 to 100km/h and room for four. It's more comparable to something like a BMW 6 series coupe in size and heft. I am almost glad I don't have that kind of money for cars because I would spend it.
