I'm not sure I can come up with a list of ten, but I think the Audi RS4 and Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 would both have a home in my garage.

Hey Bob I'll play

1. Mitsu Evo X
2. Alfa Romeo Brera. the two I would want for daily drivers

3. 68 AMC AMX (to go with my 80 AMX )
4. 68 Oldsmobile 442
5. lotus elise
6. mid 70's Lancia Stratos
7. Ferrari Daytona
8. 37 LaSalle convertible
9. Mid 1930's Duesenberg Model J
10 Pontiac Aztec (to park in the driveway to throw off the salesmen and Leaches trying to gain from my good fortune. No one is going to think someone with money would have one of them in the drive)

I guess I'm old car junkie but I'd take a Duesenberg over the Zonda any day unless the laws of the road are mine to change as well

hmmmmmmm I assume that servicing is a) done by really good people and b) free And that my supply of 98 Octane leaded is available anywhere I want to go.
Country: France Money: Lots

Dino 246 just because.
Any of the early 1970's V12 Ferraris with carbs. No Fuel injection but the real thing please
keep those at my Biarritz house
Citroen SM Paris to Biarritz.
Audi A6 Avant could be an RS6 the winter beater
Fiat Multipla... the ugly one got to go to the supermarket in something.

Fiat 500 or an Aygo or a KA for driving around Paris

I'd likely get a Chrysler 300C SRT8 and have a '68 Hemi Cuda built for the NHRA Super Stock wars and go racing. There's absolutely nothing like a pair of fish leaving the line, front wheels in the air, reaching 150 mph in 8.5 seconds.

Very nice pics Winklovic, I can certainly understand why of course. My choices would be a new STS with the 4.4 engine with twin turbo's on top. 469Hp for summer fun. The new British car with almost 1000 Hp would also be nice in the driveway as well. A new GMC P/U truck would fit the bill for doing any chores I would need to do at the Country estate I would be housing all these toys in as well. My old truck would not ever need to carry another load again. pIt would probably have the 5.3 engine in it. More then likely I would also enjoy a few more older toys as well such as a Bad engined older Vette or even a Hemi powered 426 type 70's vintage Cuda for some fun also.

-30C plus wind chill here, feels like -40C ~ -45C. Boredom is frozen.

I dream of lottery cars all the time, maybe that gives me more motivations to work harder. I sorta have a dream garage filled with model cars. The top 10:

AC Cobra
BMW E30 M3
Mercedes 300SL
Jaguar E-Type
Porsche 911 Speedster
Lamborghini Countach
Ferrari F40
Ferrari Testarrosa
McLaren F1
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution

Good Choice Dr Spock as they have set records for going thru deep snow and can be had with either the Detroit Diesel or a Catapillar engine design in them. Bring around $600.000 for one tho as thats the base model without any weapons or other toys included. Thats where I worked in my 30 year career with GM as we also built Locomotives as well as other products over the years. The other products included City Buses and Yellow school bus,s as well as the largest Terex trucks in the world also. They actually have a 9/10th of a mile trck which you can sit beside to see these being tested beside the factory. Quite interesting to see them going by at 70 Miles perhour from only 10 feet away.

Okay, after some careful deliberation...

Audi RS4 - Daily Driver/Winter Beater

Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 - For being ostentatious

MINI Cooper John Cooper Works - For keeping a low profile

Caterham R500 Superlight - Track car, that's faster than a Veyron

Unimog - Needs no explanation

Rolls Royce Phantom - Style.

Cadillac Escalade ESV Hybrid - to tow the watercraft, hybrid 'cause I can.

Aston Martin DB5 - The most famous Bond car of all time, enough said.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage - one of the sexiest, best sounding grand tourers in the world.

Searay Sunsport 290 - Okay, not a car, but I would need one nonetheless!

Good choice

Demo wot's yer TICKET #......i'm gonna duplicate it...................

Hate to spoil the fun, but i don't think a regular lottery winner will be able to afford all those cars with one jackpot... considering 6/49 normally pays out 3.5 mil per pop.

in any case, my list would be,

135 AND rs4 (wagon, if possible) for daily duty,

miata for track events or watever,

Audi R8 for style,

Acura NSX.. first all aluminum sports car revolution... i always wanted one.

Range rover sport for ....stuff.

Ferrari 355.. the best sounding car ever.

Aston Martin Vantage v8, best looking car ever.

Mustang GT convertible with Roush supercharger, but no body kit... I like them.

and.. maybe AC cobra kit car and Caterham 7... ..for building project.

AND finally, FIAT 500 Abarth.. for pulling panties.

I usually think of the lottery as purely a stupidity tax, but I've been known to buy the odd ticket when the jackpot gets up over $20 million.

Anyway, here's my list:

BMW M5 Touring for a daily driver

Ferrari F430 Scuderia so I can travel around North America racing the Ferrari Challenge series

Porsche 911 GT3 for track days closer to home

Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano for weekend jaunts to Vancouver

Rolls Royce Drophead Coupe for summer jaunts to Kelowna

Riva Aquariva Super for cruising Lake Okanagan

And a Ducati Hypermotard just because

This is all I could afford last time I won $5 in a Lotto 649 draw.

No wife. Not yet.

But a great love for all things to do with watercraft. The parentals recently picked up one of these:

Larson 274 Cabrio... just a perfect couple pocket cruiser to explore the Gulf Islands.

Nice. Reminds me of the big, elaborate Chris Craft, but even more stunning.

If I were a lake-dweller instead of an ocean-dweller I would be looking at something like this:

Crossover Nautique 236... we had a Ski Natique when we lived in NW Ontario, lots of amazing memories on that boat.

tenpenny · « **Reply #18 on:** January 07, 2009, 09:04:14 am »

If money were absolutely no object, I'd pick up an Aston Martin Vantage V8 Roadster.

And then probably trade in the Outback for a newer one.

I am not a powerboat person. If I were to add a boat to my lottery list it would have SAILS with a teensyweenzy Volvo ( or similar ) marine diesel for parking.

maybe something simple like so:
