Question Money no object..keep the Scoob?

O.K. You can have one car, money no object...would you have a Scooby or go for a supercar/hypercar/classic etc? Come on be honest, we are all friends here.
Personally being a family man with kids I can't think of a much better car to stick the kids in and still get some top notch performance fun in than an Impreza. O.K. I could squeeze the the kids into the back of a TVR Cerbera but I think they would go mental on a long journey. Thoughts please.

I'd have to say a Skyline R34 V-Spec, then use the rest of the money no object wedge to increase bhp 'a little'

Porche cayenne turbo, chipped to 700 bhp (it's been done apparently) you've then got a car that'll do anything, yes i mean anything.

If money was no object I would probably keep the scoob and have it modded (none of that chav $hit) to make it go quicker.

Tbh, I would not want say a Ferrari as all the jealous ba$tids out there are gonna spit on it or scratch etc.

I love AM's but seeing them breakdown on Top Gear and Fifth Gear really is ridiculous considering how much has been spent.

The only option I see is 911! all the way. RS of course

Incidently, one company I worked at had a guy win £1.6m on the lottery.... he bought a P1 and has had it for a number of years.

911 RS is a good choice for the playboy/single lifestyle. Can you fit a pushchair in the boot?

I often thought that but do you not think it a crime for a car to be built and never used? I think I would probably have a few cars and then join a club which gave you access to various models in exchange for points?

I'd want a LOT of cars if money was no object...but if I could only have one...I'd probably go down the 22B route!
