Dream garage if you could have only four
 
If you could fill your dream garage:

Up to FOUR cars/trucks you can buy brand-new in the US today
At least one has to be street legal (for your daily driver ;) )

You have $1,000,000 USD to spend. All on one or spread out as you wish.

What would you buy, and WHY?

Pictures are encouraged. Have fun!

I'd have to think it over for awhile before I could come up with even one brand new car I'd put in it. I suppose the 2007 Passat wagon I already have would be one. The others? I guess a Boxster so I could have a convertible. I'd rather have 4 old cars.

Great cars, but you missed the "you can buy brand-new in the US today" part

;)

A $1,000 bicycle, and the remaining $999,999 straight into the bank.

Paul K 06-18-2007 07:12 PM

Range Rover Sport for the winter

997 C4S for the summer

Mini Cooper S With the JCW package for the wife

Jag coupe as a grand tourer.

But I'm happy with the current fleet!

I'm cheap,

An M5 for a daily driver.

A 997 GT3 RS for a sports car.

A Ford GT (new ones still are in showrooms).

And since I'd need a convertible and have so much left to spend, a RR Phaeton Drophead Coupe ($450K!)

McLaren SLR, Carerra 4S (CGT isn't available "brand new" anymore), Ferrari 360 and a Tesla Roadster.

If the budget was $2M it'd be a Bugatti Veyron and three 911s. :)

mattdavis11 06-18-2007 07:51 PM

I think I'd fill two spots with a pair of wooden Chris Craft.

Dammit, no boats allowed?

Rob Channell 06-18-2007 08:51 PM

962 track car :)
993 2S cab daily driver
F250 HD or equivalent for towing
356 cab or an outlaw coupe for old school fun
hmmmmmm.....I might be a little over budget

Wickd89 06-18-2007 09:00 PM

Ferrari F40
Ferrari California Spider
Porsche 911

2007 Silverado for hauling
2007 Cayman S for fun
2007 Mini Cooper for long drives
2007 WRX STI for winters

masraum 06-19-2007 06:17 AM

Hmm, tough one, but the "NEW" part does make it a lot easier.

Carrera GT (hey, I've got a $mil)
Carrera GT3 RS
AMG S65 as the family hauler/grocery getter
Cayenne Turbo S for whatever

I'm not actually sure that would all fit in under a million, but I suspect it would be close.

< edit > I think this would fit in the million bucks.

$450k
$150k
$200k
$120k

and I'd still have money left over for velcro c/f cup holders in the CGT ;) :D
< /edit>

legion 06-19-2007 06:19 AM

Hey, my list comes to $175,000 with options...

jriera 06-19-2007 06:26 AM

I will go 'retro':
- R5 Turbo Evolution II
- Lancia Delta Integrale 16V
- Audi Sport Quattro S1
- 911 Turbo or RUF RK as a daily driver
