Get both a McLaren 570S and a 996 Gt3, pay Singer to make the 996 Gt3 interior nice to sit in, including back seats. Then you have a sports car and a family car.
Money left over for a 4x4 of some kind |

I used to work with a guy who had a GT-R. One weekend he traded it to me for my 3.2-powered 72 coupe...
Literally every weekend after that, he begged me to trade again. I found the GT-R massively capable, but heavy and appliance-like.

Yes. It’s not a “If you had a million to spend, what would you buy?”

What's up with the dog ass rear over fenders and the ugly duck tail? Where did that come from? All day is good night!

I think I'd save a few hundred thousand and get an Emory Outlaw of some sort.

He probably means an R35 one. We started getting them here a dozen years ago.

Singer because I still like the old school manual gearboxes. It is also less flashy. Need to blend into traffic.

How many people here have a million bucks and have never considered spending it on a car
I mean, how many multiples of a million do you need before you go for this kind of thing? 10? 100? 1000? Sent from my Nokia 7.1 using Tapatalk |

I have put plenty of miles on several Nissan GT-R's the last one being a 2016 I had for a week or so.
Does everything really well, the only thing its missing is a snooze button. I didn't find it engaging, it felt cheap inside too. For a million bucks I wouldn't spend it on either of those cars.
