We have this discussion often in the office, not an unlimited budget, but a sizeable lottery win. Couldn`t stick to just one car.
Obviously the scoob is now a dedicated track toy, gobstopper style.
First car would be an Aston DB9/S whichever I could get my hands on quickly from the local garage to drive whilst sorting other stuff, I would keep this as a continental cruiser.
Nissan GTR, moderatly tuned as a local knock about.
Ferrari 458 for proper posing, this may see an ocasional track too.
The Mrs would have a TTRS as her knock around car.
Other possibilities:
Some form of large Audi for people lugging.
Maybe stray into owning a classic at some point, Ferrari Daytona.

I would go out and buy:
1x Series McRae factory standard and 1x rally rep
1 x 22b Type UK and 1 x 22b JDM and 1 x 22b rally rep
1 x P1
1 x V5 onwards STi (Type R + Type RA + V-Ltd)
1 x WR1
1 x WRX STi Spec C (from each of the newage shapes)
1 x RB320
1 x Actual Rally car
I would have them all in a huge car room, some on spinny pedastal things and some would be on huge lifelike dioramas.
I would have ideally two of every model listed, the 2nd cars being classed as daily drivers and would be stored underneath the main car room in a working garage.
The exit from the daily drive garage would be a bit bat-caveish, a big double or triple wide door that slides up into the wall and obviously with the lower working garage being underground, there would be a steep long ramp up onto my private road - just a really really really long driveway.
I would also probably have a really nice luxury car with a driver for other kinds of driving duties. Would be kept away from the car room in a normal garage. Driver would ideally be kept on the gounds, so that he was always available at the drop of a hat. In fact, thinking about it I would have 3 drivers all kept on the grounds so that they could rotate 8 hour shifts and remain fresh and alert when driving me around.

Evo 5 with £500,000 under the bonnet. £500,000 on the rest of the car, carbon fibre panels all resprayed white. That's the daily driver!
For looks and ***** extension gotta be a Ferrari Scuderia or Enzo
Escort Cosworth, MK2 Golf GTI with Porsche engine in the boot, and a Sierra Cosworth for street cred.

Nailed it - I'd spend £1,000,000 on a Mk1 and Mk2 and dribble everytime i'd open the garage.
Mk1 i'd make like a Roger Clark winner. And the Mk2 i'd make like Mcrae's red and black. Then i'd probably build a Stratos. And a group B Quotro. And then i'd probably get a GT40 for work, and a Ferrari F40 to get bread and milk.
I'd buy my girlfriend a 22B - when I get time to have a girlfriend.

How about sod the girlfriend and buy yourself a 22B? ;D
On topic, I'd probably have..
A 22B as a daily..
A McLaren F1 for the weekends
A track prepared classic scooby.
And a Veyron just to say I've got one really
