If you guys won the $35M lottery, what car(s) would you buy?

\"Practical\" purchase
BMW 740 iL or an M5 - can\'t decide limo or v10 sports sedan...decisions, decisions

\"Balls to the wall\" supercar
McLaren F1 - I know it\'s old, but it\'s a 3 seater!

SUV
Porsche Cayanne Turbo S - what more can I say than: a turbo charged v8.

Now, I wouldn\'t know what to drive the remaining 4 days of the week. :)

Too many cars to dream of. I know what I want is not as exotic, but I\'ve always wanted a collection of Z cars, 510s, and at least 1 Skyline.

Then ofcourse I\'d have to buy some sorta Porche, not sure of exactly what model.

And then there is my two wheeled obsession, a Ducati 749 & 999, a Yamaha R1 & R6.

Oh....and one huge mother garage to store them all in.:D

:zzz *wakes up from nap at work* :(

What the hell throw in a Hummer h1 and h2, not that fuel cost would be an issue I just hate the fact those (most large SUVs) burn so much gas (thinking environmental concerns). Did I ever mention how much I hate when I see some huge tank of an SUV being driven by anyone going to the corner store to buy milk. Take the thing off-roading like it was meant to be used for not in the suburbs/city streets *arghhh* Or you better be pulling a boat/camper or something that a car can\'t. ok I better stop there.

Dodge Viper GTS Blue w/ White Stripes....

Dude here that I work with has a Porche 911 Twin Turbo. 2500$ a month, 173,000$ on the road.

.... not to mention his Harley, Ninja, BMW X-5

M3 or M5 would be nice
Porsche Carrera GT
No SUV for me
Then build a indoor heat/cool garage

Indoor Heat/Cool Garage? I don\'t get it...

billyfo
04-28-2004, 07:39 PM
it is a special built garage with AC and heater, some highend/classic cars may need to control the temp for paint finish and mechancial parts. In TO we have a great difference of weather in a year, so not good for our dream cars.

Xenon

If I did get one of those, it would be a 911 turbo... The all wheel drive may help in the winter.

Although a WRX STi would be good in snow too.

Raise your hand if your 3 would still be in your garage if you won the lottery... of any size.... say $30,000,000.00

**Raises Hand**

If i want the $35 million lottery, sorry to say, but i\'d get rid of my Mazda3. Perhaps i\'ll give it to my cousin, or sister.

I\'d get a Porsche 911 Turbo (AWD) in a heart-beat.
Would also get the new \'05 Acura RL.

No BMW M3 for me... the clutch on that thing is freakin\' HEAVY. I\'d much rather get the 330 Ci with Performance Package, than pay another $20,000 for the M3. Oh, wait a minute, money is not an issue here... :D :) :D

I have a small business on the side called \"Prosumerism\" and the founder of it has a Porsche 911 Twin Turbo GT2 AWD. I\'ve been right beside it and all and damn is it ever sweet. He also has a H2 and a Viper GTS. One reason why I got in this business was to make the money he makes. He makes about 1.2 Million a year and has a house with a seven car garage. Pretty sweet eh. The cool thing is that anybody can do this business.

If I won the lottery....

I'd buy 3 houses (mansions) side by side. I'd live in the middle one and let 4-5 friends live in the ones on either side. I'd buy each house a few cars each and let them share. I'd also buy a decent sized house with a fully functional garage for TM3 parties!

My car list
2006 MazdaGT GFX sedan (my current car...I'd mod the SHIT outta it and swap the motor with a MS3 one)
2008 MS3 (for motor swap)
2009 white BMW M3
2006 Honda S2000
2006 Audi S4
Mercedes G Wagon or a Hummer H2
Lamborghini Murchialago LP640 (yeeeee!)

I'd probably have a few more random ones here and there for fun aswell.

I'd invest the rest of my money wisely :P

I think I'm the only one who wouldn't go brand new.
I would probably get something like an NSX, Supra, or RX-7..... and just do it up.
The only new car I would get would be something like a Pilot for road trips.

If I won, I would trade my hatch for a 2009 MS3 and modify it like mad!

Car list if I won:
2009 MazdaSpeed 3 (errand boy)
2010 BMW 335Xi (Summer Car)
2007 Subaru WRX STi (Winter Car)
2010 Chevy Tahoe (Family Car)
2010 BMW M5 (for when I want to look Exclusive)
2010 Aston Martin (I'LL TAKE 'EM ALL!!!! for when I want to look even more Exlcusive)
1970 Chevy Chevelle (Cruise Car)
2009 Saleen 302SC Dark Horse Edition Mustang (Cruise/Show Car)
2010 Dodge Viper SRT10(Cruise Car, Orange with Black Stripes)
http://www.ridelust.com/wp-content/uploads/2010-Dodge-Viper-SRT10-1.jpg

Track Cars:
2003 Nissan Skyline GT-R
1994 Nissan 240sx
2006 BMW M3

Of course I will buy a $50,000 garage for all my cars. I will also buy a new custom built house on top of that garage. I may even open up my own business, Car Shop, Paintball Arena/Field, or a Race Track if I have enough money. Paintball Arena would be right beside Vaughan Mills and Wonderland, perfect location. The Race Track would be on Highway 7/Queen Street just after Highway 50 on the bend. Lots of room out there! I would have track days for certain cars also, like one day its for M3s only, the next it could be STi's, the next could be Mazda 3s :chuckle and then a weekend for every kind of car. I would also host car shows and such, even auctions. Pretty sick huh? I had a lot of time to think about this, if only I had the money!

*I would want to get more cars but they only come with Paddle Shifters and not Stick Shift.

^ All these is a waste of time if you have 35 million...

Someone mention STI??? come on....If you have 650$ a month....you have park one on your driveway. Doesn't need 35 million...

If I won the lottery, I will get a personal driver who has been on the cover of REPS magazine.
And then he shall drive me around in a bentley :D

With the rest of the money, spend it on clothes and shoes and my dream walk in closet!!
Oh wait, the closet will be in a penthouse suite (owned by yours truly) with my own private elevator :P

Anyways, I think I got sidetracked lol Can $35 mill get me a private jet? lol.

LOL how are my dream choices a waste? I'm sorry you don't appreaciate them like I do, but I've had this list developing for YEARS.

None of those are would be stock in the slightest way and all would be stick except the G wagon.
I'd also get a few bikes...Hayabusa <3

I wouldn't go all crazy with exotics, waste of money IMO. People usually go bankrupt not too long after a large lottery winning, and this is the whole reason why. Huge house(s) and million dollar cars that they can't afford the land tax on or to insure to be able to drive after a few years.

I'd pay off my MS3 loan, then take it to the states to get an AWD swap. Then I'd put in a cast and built block from protegegarage and mod it pretty good. Just drive it to the CP-e shop and have them do everything. I'd probably get a '93 240SX as my fun car. Maybe an '05 STi just cause it's the best looking STi ever made. I'd also get a Toyota Highlander to pull my fishing boat and offroad/winter toys. Then get a couple bikes.
