    I just noticed that I didn't specify that the BMW M3 was an E30. I don't know whether BMW made an E36 M3 EVO II as well, but I wanted to be specific. :)

    2. Ferrari 250 LM
    3. Pagani Zonda 760 one-off
    4. Ferrari F40

    And a G65 and G63 6x6 which can sit outside the garage... 😏

    I knew what you meant. The only Evo ii for this list would be an E30.

    1: Zonda 760 manual
    2: Ferrari F40 (Pure driving sensation, not as good as the F50 but few if any cars will give the same sensations)
    3: Challenge Stradale (IMO the perfect blend between electronics and still being raw)
    4: Carrera GT (partly because one needs variety in life, the option is F50)
    5: 550 ''GTO'' (reimagining the 550 to GTO spec, think of it much like 360Trev has reimagined the 360/CS. Think 550 with reworked engine (600+bhp), 6-1 manifold, 300kg lighter, a LOT of carbon and great finish)
    6: LP670 SV manual (again for variety reasons. 4WD + Snow tires would make it a perfect car for winters)

    What didn't make the cut:

    Ferrari Enzo: Love it, I really do, but the Zonda covers the bases and I prefer the Zonda over any car.

    Ferrari F50: As explained, for variety reasons. Probably the F50 is the greater car than the CGT, especially with the J wolff exhaust system it's the greatest noise ever for a road car. 5 Ferrari's and 1 Zonda is just not much variety...

    Ferrari 599 GTO: One of my favourite cars, much like the F50 a very hard choice not to include it. Partly it is variety reasons, partly because it lost out against the 550 ''GTO''.

    Ferrari Laferrari: Love it, but as explained again variety reasons and the Zonda covers it (despite the LaF being much faster). Perhaps when for every major city in the world you need a hybrid car to enter the LP670 would have to make way, purely for comedy sake.

    Porsche 997 GT3 RS (any): Heart won over, I prefer the CS in the end.

    Anything sensible (or in the Mercedes 6x6, insensible but practical in the sense of space inside): I don't have a wife. I don't have kids. **** sensibility. I'll make 2 trips to the shops if I really need a lot or just order it all online ;). For the few times a year I do need a big car (for instance a snow holiday) I can just rent a range rover or something.

    What a lovely fantasy :). Here goes mine:

    - 1959 Ferrari 250 GT SWB: Used to dream about buying one someday until things got crazy in 2008, used to be 400K.

    - 1953 Bentley Continental R Type: Just pure class.

    - Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic: If we are fantasizing….

    - 1935 Auburn Boattail Speedster: There had to be a convertible :).

    - Ferrari 575 SuperAmerica Manual HGTE: A touch of modern driving.

    - Aston Martin Rapide: There has to be a practical car..


    It would be tough to pass on things like a Pegaso Z-102 Touring Superleggera, Jaguar XK SS, Mercedes 540k, Ferrari 250 TR and many more. But I would be rather happy with such a garage.

    Then you must have missed the stretch Hummer further up the page. To quote my wife: That'd be great, if you were opening a strip club! :)

    Hasn't changed by much swapped out the 512 for a Daytona, gave up some h.p. in the 993 must be my old age and I'm sick of snow so if I can afford all these cars I can afford to leave Vt when the weather gets rough so dropped the c4 for a c2.
