    Everyone post a list of all the cars you would own if you had an unlimited amount of money.

    I know some people will have a very long list but I would like to stay small and organized, thats how I am, I don't exactly like a warehouse full of cars, its nice to see, but I would stick to this list:

    Mercedes-Benz S600 - Would be my everyday car, A perfect luxury car, all options come standard and 0-60 in 4.5 thats really fast for a luxury saloon.

    Mercedes-Benz ML63 ////AMG - The fastest SUV in the world 0-60 in 5.0 seconds and it is quite good looking.

    Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster - Would be my luxury convertible, great car, I love how Mercedes one of the top luxury brand paired up with McLaren, one of the top F1 racing brands.

    Ferrari F430 Scuderia - In my opinion as of right now Ferraris finest accomplishment, I know that some people will argue the 599 is, but in my opinion, its the Scuderia, reaching engineering perfection.

    Ferrari F40 - Ferrari heart and soul, no computers just pure car, and it was the last car approved by Enzo Ferrari, I know there were 1,300 produced which is a lot for this line of Ferraris, but its a special car to me, more special then the F50 and ENZO.

    As you can see from my dream cars Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari are the two cars I am passionate about.

    Post yours up :-D

    Thanks
    John

    I would take one of each Ferrari ever made... however, if I limited myself to say 7 cars... one for each day of the week.

    288 GTO
    F-40
    F-50
    Enzo
    410 SA
    360 CS
    599-for the wife

    They would all be black.

    Ferrari 250 GTO
    Ferrari 250 TR
    Ferrari F50
    Ferrari Enzo
    Ferrari 430 Scuderia

    BMW M1
    BMW E92 M3

    Mercedes 500E
    Mercedes S65 (W221)

    Porsche 930 Turbo
    Porsche 993 Turbo S
    Porsche 997 GT3
    Porsche Carrera GT

    Bugatti Veyron

    Jaguar E-Type

    I'm sure I would come up with more complete list if I took more time to look back at past models. Ralph Lauren's collection is one to go by...there was a TV show about his collection on the HD Theater channel. Haven't seen it on in a while but you should watch it if you see it coming up.

    If I had to narrow it down a bit, the Ferrari 250 GTO and TR would still be on it. Plus the 993 Turbo S, S65 and E92 M3 maybe.

    Too many awesome cars out there.

    Why is everyone so sore on using the search function, what if I wanted to see an updated list and make my own recent thread about it, it doesn't hurt anyone, why is it such a necessity to use the big "search" feature!

    Don't worry about it, it's OK.
    This is a "live" forum...not mining for old posts.

    I forgot about the Carrera GT....I'd have to put that in somewhere.

    My incomplete very unrealistic list

    classics:
    212 export s/n 0090e
    250GTO
    275 gtb
    Dino 246
    250LM
    Some sort of hispano suiza J12 is my favorite
    Alpine A110
    lancia stratos
    Talbot lago T150 figoni et falaschi (aka tear drop coupe)
    Alfa Romeo 8c 2900
    1970 Chevelle SS 454
    some sort of vintage F1 car. (hard to name one in a hypothetical situation)

    more recent/modern exotic:
    599 GTB
    F430 scud
    F40
    Enzo
    328
    Alfa 8c (the new one)

    daily/regular cars:
    BMW Z4 M coupe
    Infiniti FX45 (need something with more cargo room!)
    plus I'd keep my current Nissan 350z ha!

    Awful cars that I want simply because they are so awful:
    1972+ Trans am preferably with the screaming chicken on the hood.
    Some sort of really large late 70's Cadillac, preferably with a landau roof and one of those anachronistic extended bumper spare tire things.
    Yugo

    I'll have to stay short and sweet. I'm a drivers driver, I love visceral excitement and involvement. Alot of late model cars wouldn't fit that description well due to the bazillion drivers aids, nannies, and other computerized sterile add ons that severely limit driver involvement.

    1. F50 modified to increase redline and other minor performance enhancements.

    2. Porsche GT3 RS (997)

    3. 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California, one of the most breathtakingly beautiful cars ever made.

    4. Ferrari 599

    5. Mercedes SL65 AMG

    6. Ferrari Challenge Stradale

    7.Porsche Carrera GT

    that's pretty much it for me, I wouldn't have a warehouse full of cars because I wouldn't have time to drive them all. While I'm an admitted car nut, there are other more libidinous activities that I enjoy as much and more than a redlining Ferrari. ;)
