Ok, if money were no object.

My 2005 MCS
Smart Roadster Brabus V6 Bi Turbo
My 1950 Studebaker Commander
My 1999 Silverado Pickup Truck (taken apart and rebuilt the way I want it with blown 454.)
The last one in the corral would be a MINI unlike any MINI seen before. I happen to be building this car myself.

 

My five would be:

~ Saab AeroX
~ Ferrari F355 Spyder
~ Mini Cooper S JCW GP
~ Lotus Elise
~ Chevrolet Corvette ZO7

 

Interesting thread! Here's my current list:

[Summer Daily driver]
*My own "#848" 2002 MINI Cooper S, slammed & tuned.

[Winter Daily driver]
*2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR in Wicked White

[The Convertible]
*2003 Honda S2000 in GP White

[The Supercar/Track Toy]
*2008 Koenigsegg CCX-R "Flower Power"

[umm....I just love these!]
*1995 Mazda RX-7 R2 package in Black

Cheers!
Ryan

 

This seems to be popping up on a few lists...and for good reason:



Awesome.

Some very nice choices here, I am will probably be the one that people ask "WHY!?" however these are all vehicles that I have absolutely fallen in love with. Most would have to be "restored" to be in like new condition, however I love them so much that I would definately do so.

1) I love my MINI, so I would definately keep it. 2003 MCS (old picture, but w/e) DS/B


2) 1997 E36 BMW 328iS. Just like the one that I used to have. (that's mine below) Silver on Black


3) 1994 Jaguar XJS. I like the 4.0 litre inline 6, however an engine swap and a manual transmission would be in order... Almost bought the one below, however it was in pretty bad shape when I saw it. Would prefer Red on Black.


4) 1964 Lincoln Continental. I would prefer Black on Black. Such a sinister looking vehicle.


5) And being that I had the money to do whatever the hell I wanted, I would pay GM/SAAB to build me a version of the SAAB Aero-X.

aaah! Didn't see your post until after I posted mine! At least SAAB would have a market for the Aero-X if they were to build it!

For those of us with the Atom on our lists:

If I could keep my R53 and add 5 cars, these would do the trick ...

1966 Shelby GT350



Ferrari Dino 206GT



1966 Chevelle SS



Shelby Cobra



And a family hauler ...



Yup ...I wouldn't mind that garage at all. But, I guess I'll have to stick with my R53, Lexus RX330 and Honda Accord ...since they are all paid for and I can't afford another car.

dean.

 

I would settle for this (quick short list)

1. McLaren F1



2. Lotus Exige S



3. modded 3 Series for daily driving (might need the Touring version for my dog)



4. a GP that looks like this



5. and one of these old Alfa Romeo Giulia Supers...

 

Okay, here goes:
My '06 MC (HB/S)
Fiat Cinquecento, in Red
2001 M3 coupe, in Blue
the new Vette ZR-1, in red, of course
Porsche Cayman , in Navy
1957 BMW Isetta, in Ivory

 

My picks:

1) '05 R53 S
2) '08 R55 Clubman S
3) '02 R50
4) '08 R52 S Cabrio
5) '08 BMW 328i Sportswagon

 

Ugh, I forgot about the Ariel! I would have to add that, with the 300 hp civic type R engine of course. But if I added that, I would be in the Lotus 340R territory, and thats a toss up. This thread is awesome!

 

Ariel got the best marketing possible with the Jeremy Clarkson video posted above. I can't get enough of just watching the stupid car, let alone what would happen if I owned one.

1. my MCS
2. 1985 Honda Today


3. 1966 Fiat 500 F


4. BMW M3 GTR Race Car


5. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution WRC2 - for winter i guess.

the girls are included.

 

The Atom would be on my list but I think I want one of these for my alternate commuter car--leans up to 45degrees via hydraulics.



If you have no idea what this is, watch this video

Said to cost about the same as a MINI. =)

 

Well I've already got two cars, my xB and my Mini, but if I could add 5 more to that it'd be:
2006 MCS JCW
2008 MCS Clubman
classic mini pickup
classic mini saloon
Aerial Atom

 

Hey I like this one, I have had an ever evolving list for a long time. I love old European sports car from the '50s & '60s the best, so I would have to have a few of my favorites.

1. My Cooper S



2. Mercedes 300SL Gullwing


3. Maserati A6GCS Pininfarina Coupe, saw this one at the Radnor Hunt this past summer


4. Porsche 356 Coupe, but do a restomod with it, keep it clean & classic looking on the outside, but upgrade the power, brakes, & suspenion with later 911 stuff if possible.


5. Ferrari 246GT Dino, this is my alltime favorite design.


6. Finally one high powered modern exotic, Ford GT

 

I like to seeing what other people's taste in cars is. From the classics to the modern super cars.

Those classic European cars are hot.

 

Assuming my '03 MCS doesn't count:

1936 Ford Half-ton Truck (Red)
2007 Rolls Royce Phantom (Black)
2008 Lotus Exige S (British Racing Green or White)
2008 Bugatti Veyron (Black/Red)
1959 Jaguar Mark II

 

Straight line:
Dream Car #1

When it snows:

Weekend Summer car

My Company vehicle:

 

1. 1964 Lamborghini 350GT...because it was the 1st...

2. 2006 Lamborghini Miura Concept...for that nastalga muscle but with a new twist..

3. 2007 Pagani Zonda F..just to have in my living room


4. Ferrai Enzo..who could resist?

5. 2002 Audi S4/RS4 modified...daily driver
6. 2002 Cooper heavily modified...weekend sleeper
7. 2007 Lamborghini LP640...friday driver
8. 2006 Mitsubishi Evo 9 MR with a few mods...hard to beat AWD snow queen
9. 2004 Nissan Skyline GTR34...just because you would be a magician to get one.

and for you Dino lovers...what a story behind the car..

 

1) '06 MCS
2) Benz CLS
3) '08 Corvette coupe
4) Cayenne S
5) Whatever my wife wants to drive.

 

In no particular order...
