Default The Ultimate Five Car Garage

I have been fortunate enough to own some of my dream cars , some i would have again some not
If money wasn't an option (within reason ) WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE?
And why?

Mine.....

1. 911 TURBO - The only super car you can use every day.

2. Toyota Landcruiser Amazon - Wont break and will pull your trailer to the track.

3. Lexus LFA - Jap reliability , rare , and cooler than a GTR

4. My Impreza race car (but finish it) - Its been in the pipeline too long to ever let it go.

5. A classic gull wing Mercedes SL - Pure Class

1. 911 Turbo (same reason as you) - either a 996 or 997.
2. F430 F1 spider
3. MP12c
4. Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera
5. Aston DBS

When the Japs can build a car with a quality interior as opposed to something that looks like a playstation, I might consider it.

Keep my Caterham, find a bit more power.
New AMG Merc SL. Gotta have a 'vert.
Range Rover. For karting stuff about and the odd snowy day.
So that is track, and all of my road driving needs sorted. Now for a couple of cars to stir the soul.
An air cooled 911 of some description. I want to say a 993 Turbo S, but maybe a 964 RS. Hmmmm. Maybe a Ruf.

Final choice, and this is the tough one. The final car should trump the rest. Pull the heart strings, stir the soul, and have no point other than 'just because'. Can I subscribe to a car club and get a new car every weekend? No?

I think I'd probably go for a race car with pedigree. And an MoT. Maybe a 70s F1 car, Group B or early 00s rally car. Pukka E30 M3 touring car. Modern LeMans production racer ('Vette, etc.).

Done.

Do you think that I would get a daytime MoT for that F1 car? No? Shame.
