im not that big of a fan of cars priced more than 150k...AND WHERE THE LOVE FOR THE OLD SCHOOL?!?!?
why pay 150k for one sports car when you can get like 5 clean ass muscle cars

1. 75 CAPRICE CLASSIC, CANDY DARK BLUE ON 22S, custom leather interior
2. 05 porsche cayenne turbo on the fattest rims possible
3. bmw M5 for the luxury sedan

of course i woulda saved a good amount of money for not buyin a carrera GT, so i would have a 84 cutty, 80 monte carlo, 77 chevelle, and a GTO

Great lists, people! Bring on the lotto.

> 612 Scagletti or a 430 Spyder - I can't decide!
> M5 w/V10
> Cayenne Turbo

My heartbreaking honorable mentions (stolen from your excellent lists):
> DB9 - one of the most graceful designs out there right now, but needs more motor
> Shelby Cobra w/427 - now we're talking some old school muscle, but it's age keeps it off my list
> 430 Spyder - awfully tough list when this beauty can't make the top 3
> SL55/65/600 - getting older, but still an impeccable choice
> BMW-powered F1 - top of the charts ... don't know why this one didn't make the list!

daily driver


suv


need to work on something like this




i could easily keep my dream cars under 100k, nsx, m5, m6 would work, i can't ever seem to truly like porsche and ferrari's despite how amazing they are because i know that i would never spend that kinda money on those cars even if i had it... money an object or not

edit: ok i would splurge on an sl 55/65

Thinking of three cars I'd want to have in my garage would make me sad... I can't cap it off at three and I can't even afford one.

2. FX 45 AWD
3. ferrari 360 modena spyder F1

1. everyday driver- WRX STi then i'd put a x-cellation package on it which boost it to like 450 hp(pulls 12's all day on street tires)
2. well i'm gonna modify this slightly and say Pickup because I like pickups better than SUVs I'd go with a F-350 single rear wheel Power stroke diesel 4x4 4 door king ranch package and banks power kit(it's good for about 450-500 HP)
3. 2006 BMW M5 with that V-10 that's stright P-I-M-P

3 cars only shhhhhhhit

Defiantly with out a doubt may number one choice

2005 LOTUS ELISE w/ Force Fed Turbo package (I love that car and 90% of people never heard of it and i love that about it) I heard a story once it was a guy saying to someone, I'm getting a new car and the person asked, oh what type and he responded an Elise, the person says again "what type of car" the guy says an Elise, the person goes I understand its a lease but what type of car are you going to get.

Ford F350 4x4 Super Duper Duty (to pull the badass 35ft Chriscarft)



Dodge Viper SRT10 w/ the 1000hp Hennessey Venom kit (maybe i have a little bit of a testosterone problem)

Mercedes CLS 55 (for the family)

My 3 car garage would be all the same brand.... easier to get into the car and know every controls and no need to learn 3 sets of stuff. so i offer 3 different scenarios. I also bear in mind my age and the car's correlation to it (i am 26 and dont want to look like i am driving someone else's/my dad's/my boss's car, so no Rolls/Bentleys)

All BMW

750i sport/premium short wheel base (note no L)

M6 SMG

X5 2007 (new model, possibly a 5.0)

All Mercedes

New 2006/7 S-Class (500)

SL 65

(no Merc SUV, the new M is still horrendous) Maybe a Cayenne S

All Audi

A8 SWB

RS 6

Cabrio 3.0 Quattro (for summer cruising)
