If money were no object..

Merlin5 · 7 Mar 2011 at 15:52

.. and I'm talking mark zuckerberg 6.9 billion dollars no object, what car priority would you have? This is my pretty much definitive list of cars I'd immediately go out and buy, all sports car, some of which I'd buy several of in different colours. I've included car porn, as it's always nice to see

Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster custom yellow/black wheels, possibly my first choice of car and colour scheme.

black lp640 murcielago

Lamborghini Murcielago blue

zonda R, black with gold wheels.

pagani zonda C12 S, blue

pagani zonda C12 S, silver

ferrari enzo, black

ferrari enzo, red (with the black wheels perhaps)

Ferrari 458 Italia, I'd have three, in red, black, and silver

I'd also have either an F40 or F50, can't decide which one I like better.
Would not have a bugatti veyron, pretty ugly tbh.
Family size car would be Range Rover Sports in silver, one in black, and one in white with black wheels.

Not overly interested in aston martin, mercedes, or bmw.

GT3RS for fun.
458 for posing.
C63 AMG for family.

That is all I'd want really, I couldn't have a large or stupid collection regardless of how much money I had.

group B 959 with road legal tyres and all the stickers

Just get a bigger garage

Probably a Mustang, M3 and then some sort of stupid supercar but I'd have no idea which one.

MOOGLEYS · 7 Mar 2011 at 16:10

I think with 6.9 billion I would have whatever I fancied on that day...

Oh look it's this thread again

Defintely an F40. Beyond that there's nothing that immediately springs to mind, even with that sort of money I'd only buy cars that were going to get used, having a garage full of exotica that's spends most of it's time gathering dust seems a bit pointless. Having said that my opinion might change if I actually had the money.

Now if we were talking about the garage/workshop where my cars would live that's an area I've put far too much thought into. I'd be looking at a massive underground workshop/storage area with a simple looking double garage on the surface and a lift to the lower floor. Kitted out with all manner of tools and fabrication equipment where I can happily while away my days learning cool skills and making whatever the hell I feel like.

I'd have 5 cars that filled the following criteria:
1) Everyday car i.e. Jag XJ
2) "Lets drive down to the south of France" posh cruiser i.e Aston Martin something or other
3) Drop top i.e. Ferrari California
4) Road legal track toy i.e. Exige
5) Classic i.e ???

Cars are just examples of what I would like but that would be my optimum number of cars I think.

Money no object and your track toy is an Exige. Lol.

spaz · 7 Mar 2011 at 16:41

Loads of 911 GT3 RS' and the Nurburgring and a proper posh caravan for myself and tents for my friends.

Participant · 7 Mar 2011 at 16:44

You have $7bn and you'd put your mates up in tents!?

elitehacks · 7 Mar 2011 at 16:46

hmm any car eh? then id have:
mitsubishi evo x
nissan gtr
pagani zonda

but i dont drive yet, not until next year.

Hxc · 7 Mar 2011 at 16:51

Speed 12 to drive very rarely and feel insanely special.
Sagaris too, for general hoonage
Alpina B7 for family/long distance cruise
VTEC or turbo'd Mini for the odd B road blast and city driving.
Alfa 8C Spyder for droptop summer sun.
Track car? I don't know. Probably buy some old Formula 3 or something, or a Caparo. Never really thought about that one.

A purple GTO Twin Turbo for a childhood dream.

It was more an example rather than a specific but I'll stand by it.

What would you suggest?

GravyMonster · 7 Mar 2011 at 17:02

Screw road cars, if I had that much money I'd start my own GT racing team and take on Le Mans/Dubai 24 hours/Sebring 12 hours.

Race prepped 911 GT3 RSR or 458.

Thank you please.

NathWraith · 7 Mar 2011 at 17:05

Pagani Zonda C12 S - For the ridiculous "LOL" car
Scirocco R - For the sensible but quick car
Supra Twin Turbo - For the "always wanted" car

and a few track cars of some assortment
