I'd have to drive a few of the high end touring cars before deciding. I don't know of anyone who has driven them all from a Panamera to a 4-door Veyron.

Not the most desirable F-car, but I don't care. Always loved the look of the 80's GTO.

How much is Jaguar worth? The whole company.... because I would probably need to buy them to get my hands on the XJR13.

Too many to choose from.
Road legal 962, Dodge M4S, GT40, Lancia Stratos (the money can be used for upkeep, right?), GNX powered X1/9, widebody SCCA turbo RX7...

That's a tough one, especially since I haven't driven any of the cars that would make that list
I suppose the top of the list would be the McLaren F1, Carrera GT and GT40 I would actually prefer the silver one over the other two.

Certainly none of the above. No "look at me" machinery is desireable to me at this point in life. So, probably an ultimate Q ship car. Something that goes pretty much unnoticed but is capable of near supercar performance. Maybe begin with a Lexus platform? I dunno...It would take some thinking.

Unlimited, ok, if I have the money to keep it up, the 918 Spyder or the LaFerrari, and make it my daily driver if I can fit in them at least as easy as my Z3 Coup.
